All We Do is Rentals!! 🗝️

Whether you're relocating from across town, across the country, or around the world, we provide personalized rental search assistance, local expertise, and professional guidance to help you find the right place to call home.

Founded by Shawni Livingston, a licensed Oregon Principal Real Estate Broker with over 20 years of real estate and property management experience, Portland Apartment Finder was created to offer renters something often missing from the traditional real estate industry: a knowledgeable, dedicated professional who understands the rental market inside and out.

Having worked extensively in apartment leasing, property management, rental pricing, and residential relocation, Shawni brings a unique perspective to the rental search process. Her experience goes well beyond simply locating available apartments. She understands how apartment communities operate, how rental rates are established, what leasing teams look for in applicants, and how to navigate the challenges of today's competitive rental market.

From Portland's historic Northwest District and vibrant Pearl District to the South Waterfront, charming residential neighborhoods, and Vancouver's rapidly growing waterfront, we know the communities, rental properties, and distinct personalities that make each area unique.

Our expertise extends beyond apartment listings to the lifestyle considerations that matter most: neighborhood character, walkability, commute times, local amenities, parking, pet policies, rental pricing, and the overall feel of a community.

We help renters understand not just what's available, but where they'll feel most at home.

As a member of Travel Portland and an experienced relocation service provider, Portland Apartment Finder welcomes newcomers, corporate transferees, international arrivals, and longtime locals looking for a change.

Our services range from personalized rental consultations and online apartment searches to guided neighborhood tours, apartment viewings, and full-service relocation concierge assistance. Whether you need a little expert advice or someone to coordinate the entire rental process, we offer flexible services designed around your needs.

At Portland Apartment Finder, we believe finding a rental should be a personalized experience, not an endless cycle of automated leasing bots, unanswered inquiries, and confusing online listings.

When you work with PAF, you're working with a knowledgeable local professional who understands the market, communicates directly with leasing teams, and advocates for your rental needs.
