Paul Thurston

Real Estate Agent in Oregon

Paul Thurston helps clients buy and sell homes in the Portland area with curiosity, care, and a deep love for the region. A longtime Portland resident, Paul brings a grounded, local perspective to real estate and thrives on building genuine relationships along the way. “I love talking with people, not just about houses and the market, but about their lives, their stories, and what they’re excited about,” he said. “That connection helps me craft the right strategy for each client and guide them toward the best possible outcome.”

Paul moved to Portland in 2005 after graduating from the University of Oregon and quickly fell in love with the city’s neighborhoods, people, and culture. Before launching his real estate career, he spent years as a head brewer and production manager in Portland’s renowned craft beer scene, where he balanced creativity, precision, and leadership. He developed and oversaw production of award-winning beers, earning accolades at the World Beer Cup, the Great American Beer Festival, and the Oregon and Washington Beer Awards. That hands-on, detail-driven approach now helps him navigate complex real estate transactions with confidence and clarity.

When he’s not working with clients, you’ll likely find Paul exploring the outdoors with his wife Lauren and their two kids, Daniel and Amelia. His son’s autism diagnosis has given him a deeper understanding of how differently people think and communicate, teaching him the power of empathy, patience, and flexibility. He’s also an avid hiker, fly fisher, and music lover who finds joy in tinkering with vintage turntables and cooking elaborate meals. His love of learning, patience, and empathy, especially shaped by his experience as a parent, are qualities that also make him a thoughtful and responsive advocate in real estate.

To Paul, real estate is ultimately about people. “Everyone’s story is different, and that’s the best part. I get to meet new people, listen, and help them through big, exciting changes in their lives. That’s what keeps me inspired every day.”
