What truly distinguishes Adair Homes’ Lincoln City branch isn’t just experience—it’s local insight, practical know-how, and a team mindset that keeps families’ goals moving forward.
Our strength comes from people who understand how to balance two things at once: the technical realities of difficult property sites and the human side of helping families reach homeownership.
At the center of this approach is our Adair Homes Lincoln City team—a group with years of experience and a community-first perspective:
Erick Albretsen – Home Ownership Counselor (4 years at Adair)
Erick’s perspective is rooted in both professional guidance and personal experience. He’s built two Adair homes, including an investment property, and he knows what it means for the process to feel “smooth”—because he’s lived it firsthand. He also brings civic engagement to the table through his role with the Lincoln City Planning Commission, where he currently serves as Chair. His mission is clear: helping navigate the building process seamlessly while ensuring families build lifelong dreams, not just houses.
Charissa McGinn – Project Administrator (4 years)
Charissa provides the operational support that keeps projects on track. In a market where timing, documentation, and coordination matter, having someone who can manage details with consistency and care is a major advantage to homeowners.
Matt Moore – Site Services Project Manager (10 years)
With a decade of experience, Matt brings the kind of stability and problem-solving ability that difficult sites demand. When the work involves complex site conditions, you need more than a plan—you need someone who can manage the realities on the ground and keep the project moving toward a successful result.
Amo Avgi – Project Manager (5 years)
Amo contributes a blend of project execution and long-term planning experience. His role helps ensure that design intent becomes buildable reality, especially when sites require more careful preparation and coordination than a typical lot.
“Building in Lincoln City is incredibly rewarding because our local leaders share a genuine sense of urgency to get families into homes. Having built two Adair homes myself—including an investment property—I know firsthand how smooth our local process is. My passion for our community's growth led me to join the Lincoln City Planning Commission, where I have volunteered for several years and currently serve as Chair. Balancing this civic insight with my work at Adair Homes allows me to help navigate the building process seamlessly while fulfilling my true mission: building lifelong dreams, not just houses.” - Erick Albretsen
Building on Difficult Lots: Expertise that Matters on the Coast
Coastal lots in Lincoln City—and the surrounding beach communities—often come with topography that isn’t “easy.” Slopes can affect everything: how a home is positioned, how the site is prepared, how drainage is handled, and what’s needed to ensure the right fit for the property. These factors can also complicate permitting, since local requirements and site-specific constraints need to be addressed correctly from the start.
For homeowners, that’s where uncertainty can creep in: “Will this lot work?” “How long will permitting take?” “Can we build the kind of home we want here?” These questions are technical, consequential, and real.
Adair’s coastal team is built for this exact challenge. Our expertise is not theoretical—it’s practical, process-driven knowledge developed through experience. We work on Coastal terrain with these common site conditions all across the region. We understand how to navigate the extra steps that coastal lots require, and we understand how to bring the kind of coordination homeowners need when building becomes more complex than expected.
A Branch That Moves With Urgency and Care
Lincoln City rewards people who care about doing things the right way. Adair Homes’ Lincoln City team reflects that same spirit. From Erick’s firsthand understanding of the build experience and his local planning insight, to the project and site leadership that supports technically challenging builds, the team is designed to turn complexity into momentum.
At the end of the day, building on the Oregon coast should feel empowering—not overwhelming. And in Lincoln City, Adair Homes is working to make sure that homeowners aren’t just purchasing a home location; they’re building something that can last for years, seasons, and generations.
