Originally from Russia, Artem moved to Dubai when he was 26, where he became a successful broker selling high-end luxury real estate and met his future wife. After ten years, he and his family decided to move to the Pacific Northwest. They chose Portland because of the wonderful climate, beautiful nature and amazing people. His first years in Portland, Artem bought and remodeled 4 homes. With so much personal experience in buying and selling real estate as an investor and owner, he knows what his clients need. Artem believes it's important to listen to what his client is looking for and knowing the right questions to ask. Artem and his wife now have two wonderful boys, eight years old and one-year-old. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time outdoors, traveling, hiking, going to the gym, hanging out with friends and meeting new and interesting people.
