As a commercial appraisal firm, we have found your Construction Monitor to be invaluable for information on new construction activity in the Portland and Salem areas. It provides timely information with respect to new commercial projects, which can be difficult if not impossible to obtain from the municipal or county development departments. Your web site is well designed so that it is easy to access the information that we need. We like that we can sort by a variety of fields, depending on whether we are looking for information in a specific area, from a particular builder, or by type of property (retail, office, industrial). In addition, since the information is posted on your web site, we have access at any time that we need it, not just during "normal" business hours. We really appreciate the service you are providing.
