Chris Blyth

Agent Success Partner

Clients of Chris Blyth know him to be an extremely hard worker with excellent communication skills, a great sense of humor, and a strong attention to detail.

He has spent nine years in the real estate industry, both on the broker side and in title and escrow. This diverse background in multiple facets of the industry gives him a unique perspective and enables him to give a seamless real estate experience.

"My 'why' for working in real estate is driven by a genuine passion for helping individuals navigate one of the most significant financial and emotional decisions of their lifetime. I take great pride in providing a stress-free transaction where everyone involved feels like their real estate goals have been accomplished."

Chris is particularly effective at fostering strong client relationships, resolving issues creatively, and making the process enjoyable and stress-free.Born in Portland and raised in Lake Oswego, he graduated from the University of Oregon with a bachelor's degree in economics. In addition to rooting for his Oregon Ducks, he is a big fan of the Portland Trail Blazers. Fun fact: Chris was a member of Lake Oswego High School's state champion basketball team in 2006.

Chris's people are very important to him. "My fiancé, Emma, helps me keep my sanity, and my 14-month old daughter, Bradley, is the BEST!" When not hanging with them and their two crazy dogs at their Wilsonville home, he can be found working out, playing basketball, or eating his way through Portland's "AMAZING" restaurant scene.

My Happy Clients

"Chris made our first home-buying experience completely seamless! As first-time buyers, and purchasing from out of state, we had a lot of questions and uncertainties, but Chris was there every step of the way with guidance, patience, and expertise. If he didn’t have an answer right away, he made sure to get it immediately, ensuring we always had the information we needed to make the best decisions for our family. What really stood out was his no-pressure approach. He always made us feel in total control, providing honest insights and clear options without ever pushing us in a direction we weren’t comfortable with. His professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication made what could have been a stressful process feel effortless. We truly couldn’t have done this without him. Chris and the Opt team are simply the best in the business, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly! If you’re looking for a real estate agent who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond, Chris is the one!"

Stephen Christensen

"Chris was amazing to work with, especially as a first time home buyer. It really felt like he was fully committed to being on our team. Throughout the process it became very clear how well he was advising us. He protected us from overpaying while also making sure we jumped on the best investment opportunity quickly. He also was responsive throughout the whole process and really on top of communications. Not only that, he was an excellent negotiator who was able to keep a tricky deal alive by knowing all the right things to say to convince the seller. Absolutely will work with Chris again. If you want an agent who is 100% in your corner and really feels like they are fighting for you every day Chris is the one."

Anders O'Neill

"Chris was absolutely the Best. What I loved about him was that he listened to my needs as a Seller, and was not Pushy at all. One of the best Realtors I've worked with, and I'm in the Mortgage Business, so I know what attention to detail is. He always was a phone call away, and I never got voicemail without a call back in 15 minutes. Very Impressed! Highly recommend Him for your Real Estate needs. A+."

Randall Schiff

"Chris met us while showing the house that we ended up buying. We appreciated his practical approach and went through several comparison visits to other places and several return visits to the original. He was responsive and represented us through drawn out negotiations: counter-counter-offer, a tough repair addendum when a roof at the end of its life and other failing parts had us ready to walk, and last-minute credit when an issue was found before closing. Combined with a digital workflow and regular communication with the other parties, the Opt team pulled off a deal that was repeatedly on thin ice. We are glad that they did, as the big issues were taken care of and the remainder are looking manageable."

Martin Berka & Christine Yawn

"Chris is utterly amazing! He walked through our home, listened to what we had to say, and came up with the best possible plan for selling our home. We had concerns about the market, and they put us at ease by explaining everything in a simple way. We sold within a week of listing, and while I know the value of my home, I know it was because of him that we sold as fast as we did and with a full price offer. He then worked hard to get us into our new home. There were so many moving pieces with a simultaneous close that we were often ready to give up. He kept us calm and informed the whole time. We would often text him with what must have been the dumbest questions, and he was always quick, responsive, and polite. On a scale of 1-10, he is truly an 11. You will not go wrong with Chris as your agent."

EJ Crowe

"We had an incredible experience working with Chris while buying our first home. His responsiveness, knowledge and attention to detail are unmatched. We’re so grateful for his guidance, patience and dedication to us during our home search. We’re forever grateful!"
