EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Portland real estate is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Portland real estate agents: 73% of searches happen before contact
Portland's real estate market is fragmented across Zillow, Redfin, and local portals—leaving individual agents buried on page 3. Organic search for neighborhood-specific queries ("homes in Pearl District," "condos near Division Street") has zero strategy among 80% of local agents. Meanwhile, search demand for "Portland real estate" and hyperlocal property keywords grows 9% YoY. The agency that owns these search results owns the qualified lead flow.
The 3 places Portland real estate brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 real estate brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Dominated by Zillow and Redfin on "condos for sale Portland." Zero ranking for neighborhood-specific terms like "Pearl District condos under $500k" or "best agents Pearl District." Social media invisible. Monthly qualified leads: 4–6 (mostly portal referrals).
Built 8 hyperlocal landing pages (Pearl District condos, Pearl District luxury homes, Pearl District investment properties, etc.) with schema markup and 1,200+ words of SEO-optimized content per page

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
After 6 months, you rank in the top 3 for 12–18 high-intent neighborhood keywords in your service area. Organic leads increase 180–260%. You're the first result buyers see when searching for homes in Pearl District, Division Street, or your focus neighborhoods. Your cost-per-lead drops from $180 to $55–$85.
Audit & Competitive Intelligence
We analyze your current website health, identify which neighborhood keywords you're missing, and map where competitors rank. Portland-specific: we benchmark against top 10 local agents, portal tactics, and hyperlocal search patterns (Pearl District, Division Street, etc.). You get a clear picture of your gap and opportunity.
Strategy & Roadmap Build
We create a 6-month SEO roadmap tailored to your listings, service neighborhoods, and buyer intent. This includes which locations to target first (highest search volume + lowest competition), content themes, technical fixes, and a monthly publishing calendar. Portland market context: we prioritize Pearl District, Division Street, and adjacent high-value neighborhoods.
On-Page & Technical Foundation
We rebuild your website for SEO: schema markup for local business/property listings, location landing pages (one per neighborhood), internal linking structure, page speed optimization, and mobile responsiveness. Every page is optimized for your target keywords and buyer intent. This is where 40% of your SEO authority comes from.
Content & Authority Building
We publish 2–3 SEO-optimized pieces per month: neighborhood guides, market insights for your areas, buyer education content. Each piece targets 3–5 long-tail keywords and is designed to earn backlinks from local Portland media, neighborhood blogs, and industry sites. Social amplification happens here too.
Monitor, Report & Iterate
Monthly reporting on ranking progress, organic traffic, qualified leads, and cost-per-lead. We track which neighborhoods are winning, which content resonates, and where to double down. Quarterly strategy adjustments based on search trends, portfolio changes, and competitive moves.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |
What this typically looks like for a Portland real estate brand

“The weekly Loom is something no one else offered. I finally understand what's happening with our SEO — and I can explain it to my board. That matters more than I expected.”

“I've run three agencies through their paces. This is the first one that attributes everything back to revenue. Rankings are vanity. Pipeline is the point.”

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before I see rankings and leads from SEO?
First results: 4–8 weeks (improved visibility, organic traffic lift). Meaningful rankings (top 10–3): 3–5 months. Qualified lead flow: consistent by month 5–6. SEO is not a quick-fix channel—it's a compounding asset. You'll also see immediate wins from technical fixes and Google Business Profile optimization within weeks.
What if I'm already on Zillow and Redfin? Why do I need SEO?
Portals are rented attention. You pay monthly, and the moment you stop, your visibility stops. Organic search is owned—you build permanent authority and brand. Plus, buyers increasingly search directly on Google first ("homes near Pearl District," "best agent Division Street") before visiting portals. Top performers use both: portals for volume, organic for quality + brand building + long-term moat.
How much does this cost, and what's the typical contract?
SEO retainers range from $2,000–$9,000/month depending on scope (neighborhood count, content frequency, technical complexity). Most real estate clients start at $3,500–$5,500/month. We require a 6-month initial commitment to allow strategy to compound and deliver results. After that, month-to-month or annual options available.
Do you guarantee rankings or leads?
We guarantee effort, process, and transparency—not rankings. Google's algorithm is not in our control. What we guarantee: a data-driven strategy, monthly progress reporting, and ROI visibility. Our case studies show 80%+ of clients achieve top-10 rankings within 5–6 months. If we're not delivering progress by month 4, we'll pivot strategy at no extra charge.
Can you help with social media too, or just SEO?
We specialize in SEO, but we structure content and strategy to amplify across social channels. Your neighborhood guides, market reports, and buyer education content are designed to be social-ready (shareable, engaging, on-brand). We advise on social cadence and content repurposing, but detailed social management would be a separate engagement with your team or a social specialist.
