Joe Spies
I am an accomplished real estate broker, contractor, mentor and father of three. I currently live in the suburbs of Portland, Oregon and if it’s not raining, you’ll find me on my motorcycle. I got my start in real estate in 2002 after a friend and fellow agent suggested that he would be a really great real estate broker. My first two clients were house flippers and while handling their transactions, he got to learn the science of a successful flip over and over again.
In 2007, I received my contractor’s license. I come from a construction background in the Iron Workers Union, working on projects like the Nike building in Portland.
I also worked with the banks for several years on maintaining and rehabbing their foreclosed properties. As the market started to recover, I started flipping homes again.
I enjoy working with homeowners and investors.
