Search for Homes in the Portland Oregon Metro Area

The Lifestyle Home Search lets you visually see the relational perspective between all things important in your real estate decision making process. This geo-spatial map provides details on neighborhoods, schools, services, restaurants, entertainment and many other local amenities and their relationship to the homes you are considering.

Using the Geo-Spatial Map

To begin customizing your home search, open the Homes tab on the right side of the map. You can refine your search using the predefined selection criteria — or follow the link to the Advanced Search.

Use the Lifestyle tab to select those amenities that interest you. Search schools, communities, shopping, personal services and more in relation to a home for sale. You can easily display a radius around your selections using the distance sliders.

The most important things to consider when buying a home is location! Use the Area tab to explore school districts, zip codes, cities and counties and access local demographics.

You can create and save an unlimited number of customized searches. Use the Alerts tab to manage all your searches. Click the arrow to the right of any search to view its properties or make changes.

Mobile Devices and Desktop Browser

Note that the map will not display on most common browsers (e.g., Safari, Chrome, Opera) on mobile devices such as an iPhone and iPad) as most mobile devices do not support Flash and Java. Also the Firefox browser will not display the map on desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. Instead of the map displaying you will be presented with a text-based search tool where you can search by neighborhood, city or zip code(s) along with other parameters.

Below is a Web browser that you can download from the Apple iTunes store that display the map.

With the help of cloud servers, Puffin Web Browser brings the desktop web browsing experience to tablets and smartphones. It renders the full versions of Web pages quickly and reliably and also supports Flash with solid performance on iPads and iPhones.
