With a journey that began in 1993 as an assistant to his mother's real estate business, Sean Shepard has long since established a legacy of clientele through a knowledge of Lake Oswego's luxury real estate market, coupled with a concierge level of customer service. While his expertise spans the entire Portland metro area, the Lake Oswego, West Linn, and Tualatin triangle has long been his backyard!

With a heavy focus on corporate relocation and new construction in his early years, Sean quickly learned to provide a level of service tailored to the more discerning clientele, while still bridging the gap and managing relationships with builders and subcontractors. Now with over two decades as a licensed broker, he has successfully navigated residential and commercial development, condo conversions, new construction, 1031 exchanges for investment properties, corporate relocation for numerous firms, and most importantly, guiding individuals through the purchase and sales of their personal homes!

Sean doesn't have a single client that he couldn't call a friend and often says, "I'm not in a sales business, I'm in a relationship business. My expertise just happens to be used to professionally navigate clients through their transactions.”

As a former Lake Oswego brokerage owner, he recognized the benefit of transitioning and partnering with a local firm rooted in technology and more importantly with a culture and heart to serve. Opt Real Estate’s local presence, as well as their expansive network, allows the Shepard Group to expertly guide their clients through detailed property analysis and transactions throughout Oregon, around the nation, and across the globe. Above all, this partnership enhances the curated, concierge level of service provided to every client, regardless of price point or geographic market.

While consistently recognized for his production and high level of customer service, Sean does prioritize fun and adventure with his wife and teenage daughter. Depending on the season, you'll find him snowboarding, golfing, waterskiing, climbing, mountain biking, hiking or running his dog on the beach somewhere.

Sean’s life does truly live out this verse: “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others more significant than yourselves.” Phil 2:3
