Mickey Lindsay has lived in the Portland Metro Area all her life except for the four years when she studied in Eugene at the University of Oregon. She is the second generation owner of Oregon First, Realtors® & Washington First Properties. Mickey has been in and around the real estate business all her life, working for the company during summers as a student, and full time after college until she became a managing broker almost two decades ago.
For her, the best thing about real estate is that “everyone lives someplace,” so she connects with lots of different people in the course of her job. She also loves to see agents’ careers take off, and watch them grow more knowledgable and confident.
Mickey is an avid reader and likes to travel when she can find the time, even if it’s just to the beautiful Oregon Coast. Her most memorable trip was to Paris in 1995 when her husband proposed to her at the top of the Eiffel Tower!
In addition to being the owner of Oregon First, Realtors® & Washington First Properties, Mickey is the Managing Broker of the three Westside branches of Oregon First, Realtors®. She was the 2020 chair of the Portland Metropolitan Association of Realtors® Brokerage Risk Management Committee, and sits on the Board of Directors for the Regional Multiple Listing Service.

Adam was born and raised in Northern California where he learned to love the great outdoors and all the recreational opportunities that surrounded him. Moving to Portland, Oregon in 1985 with his young family was a dream come true. During several summers as a youth his parents took him and his siblings camping, fishing and off-roading throughout the Northwest. Adam loves hiking, backpacking and playing a competitive round of golf with friends and family. He’s also an avid gardener, enjoying landscaping and generally all things in the natural world.
His first job was in high school at a large printing plant in Fremont, California. He drove a forklift, stacked large sheets of paper by hand, and cleaned the entire shop. After college, he had a five year stint as an engineering technician in a wafer fabrication plant at National Semiconductor. Then in the early 90’s, he started his management career as a department supervisor and later as Vice President of Manufacturing at a large printing plant in Tigard.
His journey into real estate started in 1996 when he had a custom home built in the NW Hills. The experience of working with the builder was so interesting and enjoyable that he earned his real estate license later that same year. In 2014 he moved to Wenatchee, Washington and became the managing broker of three high producing offices for Windermere Real Estate. He returned to the Portland-Vancouver Metro Area in 2019 to be closer to family and friends and worked for a time as the managing broker of the Vancouver Cascade Sotheby’s office before accepting a position with our growing Washington First Properties office in Camas.
Adam is an experienced negotiator, problem solver, counsellor, and property marketing expert. He’s a listener and a doer. Adam’s personal and business philosophy is really quite simple. He lives by the golden rule: treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.

Testimonials:
"Tanisha has literally saved my sanity since I began using her transaction coordinating services. As a single mom, I have so little time and need to be in many places all at once. At one point I was under contract with 9 transactions, I would’ve never been able to pull this off without Tanisha’s help. Now whenever I get a new listing or go under contract with a sale, I send the contract to Tanisha and ask for her help. She takes care of getting documents signed from my clients and inputs info for SkySlope and RMLS. She has been so professional with all of my clients, and they have enjoyed her communication. She is always on top of it, and has helped me out so tremendously I can’t even thank her enough. The cost is minimal compared to my time and sanity :)" - Mable Bartlett
“Tanisha! More valuable than gold! Trustworthy. Dependable. Thorough. Fast. Intelligent. Detail oriented, plus a sense of humor! I feel so grateful for her on a daily basis. I really haven't found a better transaction Coordinator than Tanisha. I know when I ask her to do something it is done. I highly recommend her and am thankful I have her on my team!” - Rachel Sheller
