About lovelakeoswego

I feel pretty lucky—I live where I work and I love where I live. As an added bonus, I get to work with my daughter, Riley. As Realtors in Lake Oswego, we get to share that enthusiasm with clients every day. Through this blog, with the help of my freelance writer wife, Genita, we’d like to share that enthusiasm with you. The quality of life you’ll find in Lake Oswego belies its size—there is so much to experience here from a fireworks show over the lake on the 4th of July to the Festival of the Arts--one of the premier arts events in the region. So please check in each week for another reason why we love Lake Oswego and who knows—maybe you’ll fall in love too! If you’re interested in experiencing Lake Oswego personally, please feel free to contact us either on Kevin's cell at (503) 939-9801, Riley's cell at (971) 322.6205, via email at kevin.costello@cascadehasson.com or riley.costello@cascadehasson.com or check our website by clicking the link in the "Contact me" section in the right-hand column.
