"We opened our video business in Sherwood several years ago. We do professional video production, and we help consumers make video presentations out of pictures, music, and video, and get those old films and videos transferred to disk. Our impression of Sherwood when we decided to locate our business here has held true; this is a family-oriented community that has a commitment to business and to livability. We love the way Sherwood has improved the Old Town even during our residence here, and the tremendous participation in community events like Cruisin' Sherwood, the Robin Hood Festival, and the concerts in the park. We've met many, many parents who are positively involved in public and private schools, as they come to our shop to create videos. Sherwood is just a charming town with a great ambiance, and it is spoken of admiringly by the surrounding communities as a model for tasteful growth and community spirit. We're glad to be here."

"I need a good Realtor, who would you reccomend I use?"

The most common question amongst family, friends and co-workers when you're thinking of buying or selling a home.

We know Realtors are plenty capable of answering that question, you see that approach all the time. What really matters most is what people like you have to say... Straight talk from the town locals - Now that's refreshing!

Recently, Burn it Studio, a media company in Sherwood Oregon went into some homes in the community to speak with homeowners on camera about their recent experience with their local Realtors, Jason and Amber Gardner with John L. Scott Real Estate. See the Full Media Story - Click Here - Their compelling stories and personal experiences truly say it all.

George Washington Carver said, "When you do common things in an uncommon way, you'll command the attention of the world." This is a great example of how we represent our clients and their homes...."Commitment to YOUR Success", creating lifetime relationships, always first to offer dynamic services, high-class marketing and delivering results... But we don't have to tell you that, our clients will.

We know what matters most to our community, and you'll be seeing more of it!

Sherwood Oregon continues to to do great things.

Known as one of the fastest, most sought after communities in the State of Oregon, Sherwood continues to have a magical buzz that surrounds our heart of the community culture. We're known for our harmonious blend of old and new, whimsical "Robin Hood" fame, well appointed suburban location, excellent schools and national recognition from Money Magazines, 2007 "Best Places to Live" in the United States.

But it doesn't stop there... Our humble little city is taking it "big time" online. Sherwood Oregon wins the 2008 ESRI SAG Award for its implementation of a new Geographic Information System (GIS) and state-of-the-art mapping software with GPS and Google Earth integration.

As a Sherwood resident and local business owner in our successful real estate practice, we always say "community" is what sets Sherwood apart, and having a savvy city behind it makes a prosperous combination for our towns future.

ESRI presented Sherwood with the 2008 SAG Award (Special Achievement in GIS). This company has been designing and developing the world's leading Geographic Information System (GIS) technology since 1969. As stated by GIS "it's an important tool-one that helps shape the world around us." Investing in the growth of Sherwood, the city has embraced this new way of thinking to streamline the needs of our community while taking our resources and public website to the next level.

The City of Sherwood acquired the help of GeoNorth to impliment their in-depth Graphic Informational Systems (GIS) and state-of-the-art Mapping Software. The city plans to use its new high tech abilities for hundreds of applications as they continue to implement it as an integral part of their day to day work. Paul Ortiz, Program/Project Supervisor was kind enough to chat with me about the some of the cities direction and plans moving forward. In my interview with GeoNorth, I was able to interact and test drive their software myself. I can see how it will become a major resource for consumers, developers, Realtors, fire departments, city workers and look forward to using it to help our clients.

Right from the City of Sherwood website, we'll have the option to see a compilation of consolidated, up-to-date, readily available data otherwise individually accessible from Washington County, Metro and other bordering jurisdictions. Excluding private owner information, the public can use this new interactive informational resource to locate property and important information. With just a click you can customize specific searches, interact with maps, zoom to direct positions, pull up County and Metro data such as tax lots and information, queries, zoning, survey, utility information, permit, as-builts, report centric mapping and more. There will be access to custom links, historical aerial images and a complete PDF library of maps. A great resource the city will always be improving and adding to.

According to Ross Schultz, Sherwood's previous City Manager, "I have known that shrinking sources of revenue and increasing human resource costs will continue to put pressure on providing the quality service our Citizens demand. Sherwood's strategy has been to address this issue with the planned infusion of technology so that we may keep our productivity at its highest level. GeoNorth has done an excellent job of helping us with that goal. Implementing GIS technology will allow Sherwood citizens direct access to City data and eliminate the need for staff involvement."

The Gardner Team would like to congratulate the City of Sherwood Oregon as the 2008's SAG Award Winners for Special Achievement in GIS and taking a cutting edge approach to investing in the success of our community.
