Meet James Bradley
Principal Broker Licensed in OR and WA
I grew up in a small town in central Washington. After a stint in the military, I went to college on the GI Bill. After becoming a father I needed to put food on the table and began working in the music industry. I began in retail and quickly moved into wholesale as a manufactures representative. I ended up as the National Sales Manager for the largest manufacturer of electronic musical instruments in the world. After 25+ years it was time to get off the road and I spent the next six years in the corporate world as a Project Manager at Microsoft. At that point our daughter urged me to join her in real estate and we joined forces to form the SkyBlue Portland Real Estate Group.
Real estate provides me an opportunity to combine my prior life experiences … sales, marketing, financial planning, social media marketing, and project management into a discipline that helps people make the biggest financial decision of their life.
My Approach & Values
For most of us our home is the bedrock of our life. When we move, everything changes … where we eat, sleep, play, study, work, relax … you name it, it’s all different. This wholesale change is stressful. That’s why your choice of a realtor is so important. My number one priority is to listen deeply to your goals when buying or selling a home. When someone hires me to assist in the process of selling or buying a home I feel both honored and duty bound, to help them meet their goals. I look forward to helping you make your dreams come true.
