Principal Broker in Oregon and Washington
Before getting licensed in 2017, Tony Piff earned his bachelor's in English at Washington University in St. Louis, was a welder on a Mississippi River salvage boat, spent ten years managing apartment buildings, had a home organization business, and worked as an editor at a Portland-based classic car magazine. He also swung a hammer professionally as a handyman and construction worker and has gut-renovated three vintage homes and an RV.
In 2021, Tony’s dazzling customer-satisfaction metrics earned him “Best of Zillow” distinction — an award reserved for the top 10% of agents nationwide.
His journalism background — questioning, listening, researching, and communicating — makes him a uniquely effective real estate agent. Tony loves problem-solving with his brain and hands and tools as much as he loves people. He delights in nitpicking a home’s maintenance history and upgrades, helping buyers understand the difference between “money pit,” “rehab candidate,” “preservation project,” and “truly move-in ready.”
When working with listings, Tony goes deep and gets hands-on. He understands that preparing to sell can feel overwhelming and personal, and he sees it as his job to understand his clients’ stresses and lead them forward with solutions, a plan, and helping out with the punch-list. He identifies the crucial and non-crucial preparation tasks that make a difference, saving his clients time and money and maxing out their homes’ appeal. He also maintains a data-driven, real-time view of the market, so sellers can have the most realistic expectation of their home’s value. And he does staging.
Tony fills his free time writing, watching R-rated movies with his kids, building metal toolboxes in his garage, bike touring, and finding new places to brew coffee outside.
