About Travis

Built on referrals. Kept by trust.

I've been licensed in Oregon since 2014, and for 12 years my business has grown almost entirely through people telling their friends and family to call me. I don't take that lightly.

Principal Broker

"A good agent is going to make sure they fully understand your story and what your goals are, so they can advise you based on your needs."

That's been my approach from day one. My primary focus is guiding people through decisions: whether to buy or wait, what a home is really worth, how to structure an offer, when to push in a negotiation and when to let something go. The transaction matters, but the decisions leading up to it matter more.

My business lives and dies by my clients' satisfaction. There's no advertising budget behind a referral, just the experience someone had working with me. So my goal with every client is the same: turn you into an advocate, whether I help you buy, sell, invest, or figure out that you're not quite ready yet.

Home for me is Sherwood. I volunteer as a youth sports coach, help out at the local school when I can, and my wife teaches at the local elementary school. It's a community we're invested in, and I love helping people find their place in it.

I work out of The Agency's Lake Oswego office and help clients across the Portland metro area, including Sherwood, Lake Oswego, Tigard, Tualatin, West Linn, Portland, Beaverton, Wilsonville and Oregon City.

Travis is hands-down the best realtor I've had the pleasure of working with. He is so incredibly knowledgeable, personable and his encyclopedic knowledge of the market is amazing. I have now sold and bought a home with him and each side has been just as incredible of an experience. He will forever be my go-to for real estate needs. Can't recommend him enough!

I'm so proud to be writing this review from our new home, and it's all thanks to Travis. He was so patient with us as we looked at least 50 houses, and he was never late to a single showing literally none. He really made us feel like we were his only clients, always responsive and making time for our questions—even after the deal was done. He acted as a sounding board, just listening to what we wanted and giving his honest thoughts without ever being pushy.
He's also very good at negotiation who will genuinely look out for you and don’t leave anything on the table. We were already under contract on a house, but he dug into the inspection report and found an unpermitted bathroom conversion, even though it wasn't super obvious. He helped us terminate the deal, and just a few months later, the house price dropped by $65,000. It was a huge relief, and it just showed us he was truly acting in our best interest.
Beyond just showing us houses, he was a real educator. As first-time homeowners, we learned so much from him about the whole process. He taught us what to look for, what red flags to watch out for, and so much more. We really can't say enough good things about Travis and I hope you would work with him to experience that meticulous client service :)

This was the BEST experience that we have had selling a home! Stress free and Travis is a great negotiator. He went above and beyond, even checking on the home for us, as we lived out of town, and giving great suggestions. […] Also, the home cleaning team, which was a service provided when selling the home. Very happy with the process and outcome. Even the signing was low stress, with a mobile notary service. Thank you and we highly recommend Travis Carver to anyone selling a home in the area!
