Private, In-Person Tours of New Listings

In Salem and the Surrounding Area

Get early access to hand-picked homes and expert insights to help you tour new listings with confidence.

Why Tour Homes With a Local Expert?

Online listings can only show so much. Touring new listings in person with someone who understands the area helps you avoid wasted time and focus on the properties that truly fit your needs. You’ll get context you can’t find online, from neighborhood feel to potential red flags. A private tour with a trusted local expert ensures you see what matters and skip what doesn’t.

What Dana & Alan's clients say

Dana & Alan Burk smiling at their wedding celebration.

“I first contacted Alan Burk in December 2016 about relocating to Salem.

Over the next six years, Alan was very patient with me in many ways.

He taught me about Oregon real estate, details one needs to know when building outside of city services, and so much more!

I greatly appreciate Alan’s patience because it took years to finally find, not one but two, properties to make our Oregon relocation dream come true!

Thank you, Alan, for being patient, for being a great teacher, and encouraging me to “look at everything.”

I was concerned about wasting Alan’s time looking at some properties, but that was never a concern for him.”

Common Questions About Touring new listings

Can I schedule a home tour even if I’m early in the process?

Absolutely. Many buyers tour homes well before they’re ready to make a move. Dana & Alan offer no-pressure private tours to help you learn the local market, clarify your preferences and understand what’s realistic in your target market.

How many homes can I see on one tour?

That depends on your schedule and the availability of the listings you’re interested in. Most buyers tour 2 to 5 homes in one session, but Dana & Alan will work with you to customize the tour around your pace and priorities.

Are there listings I can tour that aren’t online yet?

Often, yes. Dana & Alan have access to off-market listings and homes coming soon in Salem and nearby cities. When available, these early opportunities can give you a competitive edge before a property hits the open market.

Can I bring a friend or family member on the tour?

Yes. You’re welcome to bring someone you trust to join you. Buying a home is a big decision, and it’s helpful to have input from people who know your goals.

Do you help with homes outside of Salem?

Yes. Many buyers live, work or commute across multiple areas. Dana & Alan regularly helps clients tour and purchase homes throughout OR, including Salem, Keizer, Dallas, Turner, Stayton, Aumsville, Sublimity, Silverton, Jefferson, Albany, Monmouth, Independence and other surrounding communities. If you’re not sure whether a specific area is covered, just ask. We’re happy to help!

What if I find a home I love during the tour?
