We specialize in land acquisition, product consulting and the sales and marketing of new homes. We are committed to excellence for our Builders and Developers, and we strive to exceed expectations. This commitment as led to the Crandall Group to being consistently recognized as the Top 1% in all of John L. Scott.

As most builders in our area already know, market conditions will continue to change quickly and profoundly. I think what sets the Crandall Group apart from others in our industry, is our ability to effectively react and respond in these constantly changing circumstances, it’s sort of where we shine. Whether it be recovery tactics after a debilitating recession, creatively showing homes during a global pandemic or navigating buyers through pricing spikes mid-contract, we are at our best and our highest value, when faced with these adverse circumstances. So, when you need something more than just a for sale sign in the ground, please call the Crandall Group, I think you will appreciate the service we provide and the results we create.


Mark Crandall has surrounded himself with the best in the business, by including Matt Wellner and Jeff Roberts as part of his Land Team. From cultivating long-standing relationships with generational landowners to deciphering complicated contracts and entitlement issues, Matt and Jeff bring a level of knowledge and experience to the table which is very hard to find these days. As a Client of the Crandall Group, our goal is to provide you with the resources you need to be successful as a Builder-Developer. From the Land side, Matt and Jeff have proven to be an invaluable resource to our Builders in many different ways, including reviewing and assessing land opportunities, questions on contracts, land use and entitlements, and most notably identifying the pros and cons of a project during initial stages of review.

nice to meet you SALES

Megan Talalemotu Hello, and thank you for allowing me to introduce myself! My name is Megan, and I have been a licensed Broker in the Portland-Metro area for over 25 years. My background includes everything from condominium sales, on-site sales, re-sale home sales and investment properties, and at the end of day New Construction Home Sales is my area of expertise, and Builders are my focus! I have been with the Crandall Group since 2010, as the Director of Sales and Marketing. From past experience working in-house, with a prominent Portland home builder, I knew immediately I would love working at the Crandall Group, as it gave me the chance to work with multiple local home builders, within a fantastic company! My role here is diverse and involves everything from looking at dirt for a future site, to planning a neighborhood grand opening event for 250 guests. I do a lot, our team does a lot, and in the end, we are here for whatever you need, to help create success for your company!
