About Chris Watkins
I've been in housing for over 20 years and have seen the power of real estate to achieve financial freedom. I want to help everyone think like an investor, whether you're buying your first home or your tenth. Whether you have a dream of owning a home or owning an investment property, the rubber has to meet the road somewhere. That's where I dig in and help you see what your real opportunities are. ***What About When I'm Not Making the Impossible Possible?*** You can catch me running or biking around Eugene, walking my dog, playing ultimate frisbee, scouring vintage stores, or watching one of my kids' sporting events.
We can make it happen!
