WHO WE ARE
We are an independent Real Estate Company made up of three women, with many years of combined real estate experience in Central Oregon.
Cowgirl Properties was founded by Rebecca Charlton, a Bend native when she took a break from Real Estate in 2009 to start a Western Vintage Boutique called Cowgirl Cash. She wanted to retain her license so she could refer business to other agents from her retail shop. 15 years later, she sold the store, recruited her favorite Realtors and began to build the Cowgirl Properties brand.
We help clients buy, sell, relocate, and find their perfect fit in Central Oregon—whether it’s a primary residence, a vacation home, or a property that supports their lifestyle. We value the Central Oregon lifestyle and the people who wish to move here and make it home.
MEET THE TEAM
SHARON JENSON

REBECCA CHARLTON
Owner & Principal Broker
Rebecca was first licensed when she was living in Portland, OR. She was working in the jewelry business and had successfully bought her first home, sold and bought again, without an agent. One day, a customer asked her why she wasn’t selling real estate.... She signed up for Real Estate courses the next day! That was 27 years ago. Cowgirl Properties was born while she was running her Western Vintage Boutique in downtown Bend, Cowgirl Cash. She wanted to stay licensed and to have the opportunity to sell and refer.
Cowgirl Cash was sold in May 2024 and Cowgirl Properties is now her sole focus.
Running this boutique Real Estate company with her two friends Sharon and Kris is the Best job she’s ever had!
Sharon started her real estate career in 1989 at Sunriver Realty as a transaction coordinator. She then obtained her broker’s license and began learning the business with some of the top agents in Central Oregon. She joined the team at Brooks Resources and sold luxury condominiums and townhomes at Mt. Bachelor Village in Bend.
While raising her two sons, she transitioned to a philanthropic role with St. Charles Medical Center Foundation, funding programs for the Heart Institute and several children’s health programs, before starting her own restaurant in downtown Bend!
Sharon knows someone everywhere she goes and is an amazing resource when it comes to getting things done!
KRIS BLEA
Broker
Kris began her real estate career as an office manager for the Oregon-based "The Hasson Company" when it opened in Bend in January 2005.
With her experience with the MLS system, real estate documents, opening escrow, and inputting listings, it seemed natural to become a Realtor 11 years later. She loves the treasure hunt for the perfect property for her clients and will never turn down the opportunity to tour a home. That's the fun part!
She joined her friend, Rebecca, at Cowgirl Properties in 2022, looking for a less corporate, more local experience.
