Ben Andrews
🏡 Portland: My Home I'm proud to say that Portland has always been my home. I've had the privilege of growing up in this vibrant city and building my life here. I'm deeply connected to the community and passionate about helping people find their perfect homes in the place I've always loved.
🏢 Family Roots in Real Estate Real estate runs in my blood. From a young age, I've been involved in the real estate business, working closely with my family and the company my parents started - Andrews & Company. This experience has given me valuable insights into the industry and a deep appreciation for helping others navigate the real estate journey.
🎓 From Track & Field to Real Estate After graduating from Parkrose High School in 1992, I earned a Track & Field scholarship to the University of Oregon, where I pursued studies in Sociology and History. During my time at the University of Oregon, I achieved remarkable milestones as an athlete. I was a 6-time PAC-10 finalist, a PAC-10 Runner-up, and qualified for the NCAA Championships. I also provisionally qualified for the 1996, 2000, and 2004 US Olympic Trials in my specialty, the 1,500-meter run. My dedication to excellence in sports has translated into my commitment to delivering top-notch results in the real estate world.
📚 Author of "The Long Run" I'm excited to share that I'm the author of the book "The Long Run." In this inspiring book, I draw parallels between my experiences in track and field and the valuable lessons I've applied to my real estate career. It's a journey through perseverance, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence, both on and off the track. I'm passionate about helping people put their dreams in focus, identify their potential, and expand their results, and this book is a guide to achieving just that.
📰 Media Recognition I'm honored to have been recognized by various local, regional, and national media outlets for my expertise in real estate, particularly in the Pearl District. In recent years, I've been quoted in publications such as The Oregonian, Portland Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle, Seattle Times, New York Times, New York Magazine, New York Post, and the Portland, Seattle, and Phoenix Business Journals. My insights have also been featured on television through interviews on HGTV's 'House Hunters' and 'What You Get For the Money,' FOX 12's 'Good Day Oregon,' and KGW's 'Your Money, Your Business.' Furthermore, my wife, Heidi, and I had the privilege of having our Pearl District condo featured on an episode of HGTV's 'House Hunters.'
