After exploring various corners of the country, I found my heart and home in Portland nearly 30 years ago. Portland’s unique neighborhoods, distinctive architecture, and  livability captured my imagination and continue to inspire me. I took that love a step further and became a Realtor!

My passion for real estate began when I sold my first house. Experiencing the financial stability that homeownership brought to my family, I became dedicated to helping others find their ideal home and achieve financial independence. Having lived in multiple areas of Portland and managing several remodels and owning investment property, I bring a wealth of local knowledge and practical expertise to the table.

I enjoy partnering with my clients to discover their dream home or investment property, or to seamlessly transition them from their current house to the next chapter of their lives. As a long-time Portland resident and active Realtor, I offer personalized consultations to ensure my clients make informed, confident real estate decisions. With roots in a construction focused family, I have the insider connections for all your repair and remodeling needs.

When I’m not busy matching clients with their homes, I adore Portland’s outdoor adventures, culinary delights, and travel opportunities. I love exploring new places and developing new skills and will usually try to bring my family and friends along for the ride. 

Navigating your next real estate transaction with me means a smooth, enjoyable journey. I’m here for you long after your home closes—whether you need a trusted referral, a coffee companion, or tips on the best kayaking spots. Let’s make your Portland real estate dreams a reality!

Highly recommend!! Charity and Shannon helped me sell my (first) home in July 2021. I had a bit of a surprise snafu with my sewer line and the City... SO many times, I found myself saying "thank (whomever) I have the most kickass team by my side!". Charity kept me informed every step of the way, explained the ins and outs of the home-selling process (more than once at my request, and always with such patience and friendly attitude). I never felt alone in the process, nor did I feel overwhelmed with unnecessary interactions/information. Clear and consistent communication, an obvious professional. A million stars!!

I can not say enough good things about our experience with Charity & Shannon. This was our first home purchase and they made everything so easy. Any questions that we had they answered right away and often before we even knew to ask them. It truly felt like we had a strong team in our corner working to make this a seamless and enjoyable experience. Will definitely be working with them again in the future.

Charity Chesnek of Think Real Estate is a wonderful real estate agent and equally amazing person with lots of great experience and advice on what to think about when purchasing and selling a home. My husband and I have worked with her twice now as first time home buyers and then to find our forever home. She goes above and beyond to answer all the questions we had and we felt like she truly cared about us as she made the home buying process feel seamless. We would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell in the Portland metro area.

I have used Charity to both purchase and sell homes and she is THE real estate agent you want on your side. She is professional, caring, thoughtful and well-versed in how to approach the unexpected. She is accessible and approachable when you have questions and knows how to navigate complicated situations. For my recent sale, she made my home look so amazing, I almost didn't want to sell it! (it went for over asking in less than a week!) I would not hesitate to recommend her and her group for your next sale or purchase.
