Meet Kari Throop

Kari Throop is a thoughtful and trusted real estate professional serving West Linn, Lake Oswego, and the greater Portland suburbs. Known for her calm presence and thorough guidance, Kari helps families and individuals navigate major life transitions — from relocating to Oregon to finding a home that better supports their next chapter.

Originally from Salem, Oregon, and raised in Southern California, Kari returned to the Pacific Northwest in 2019 to be closer to family and embrace a slower, more intentional pace of life. She brings a unique blend of small-town values, genuine care, and strategic insight to every client relationship.

Before real estate, Kari spent years as a Health and Wellness Director and earned a Master’s degree in Exercise Science. That background shapes her holistic approach today — viewing home not just as a financial investment, but as a foundation for well-being, connection, and growth. Her clients appreciate her empathy, planning skills, and ability to anticipate their needs with honesty and precision.

Kari is passionate about helping relocation clients, first-time buyers, and families seeking a home that aligns with their lifestyle or evolving needs — including those navigating new schools, or community transitions. She combines data-driven strategy with heart-led service, ensuring clients feel supported and confident from start to finish.

A lifelong learner and community connector, Kari continues to study market trends, and local resources to better serve her clients. Outside of real estate, you’ll find her exploring Oregon’s wooded trails, discovering cozy coffee shops, and taking mini adventures with her husband, Micah, and their two daughters, Emilie and Olivia.

Whether you’re moving to Oregon or moving toward a new season of life, Kari is dedicated to helping you find a home that feels just right — one that truly supports the life you want to live.
