Real Estate Market Trends

If you're like a lot of other consumers, trite slogans and marketing come- ons aren't convincing. Especially when it comes to the most expensive investment you may ever make; numbers are far pithier.


Think about it -- which of these is of more value to you: “Now is the best time to buy or sell a house!” or “Real Estate Market Report for Yourtown, Yourstate?”


Not only is this section of ActiveRain chock full of up-to-date real estate market reports but market statistics and market trends as well. Best of all, they're written in plain English by the experts – those that actually work in these markets on a daily basis.

Is Central Oregon Real Estate Moving to a Balanced Market? In Q3 2024, the Bend Oregon Real Estate market and surrounding communities experienced a change, moving closer to a balanced market after many years of being a seller's market. The number of listings grew, days on market increased, but prices appear to have leveled off, at least within Bend and Redmond. In Bend, Redmond, Powell Butte and Black Butte Ranch, the number of sold homes increased as third quarter 2024 also saw mortgage interest rates drop. Outside of Redmond and Sunriver, all of the Central Oregon real estate markets saw an increase in new listings year over year, many above 20%. This can partly be attributed to sellers recognizing that with lower mortgage interest rates, the cost of their replacement property would ...

Inventory Growth: More Homes Hitting the Market in 2024The tight housing inventory that has characterized the market in recent years is expected to ease in 2024, with more homes being listed for sale.

If you’re a seller, now is the time to list before the market becomes oversaturated.“The inventory crunch is easing—is your dream home just around the corner?”“Let me guide you through the growing mark...

Bend Home Sales Up With More Inventory and Lower Mortgage Rates It appears that the tide has turned and Bend home buyers are now experiencing lower prices, more choices with more inventory, and better interests rates. This has enabled more buyers to enter the market and more sellers to have confidence listing their home, knowing that their replacement property will cost less than it did just six months ago. This has generated more early fall business than we normally see and a more balanced Bend real estate market. When September 2024 is compared with September 2023, the following changes to Bend home sales can be noted: Average sales price down 11.3% to $837,153* Median sales price down 4.7% to $713,500 Original list price down 4.3% to $882,186 Median sales price down 2.8% to $737,400...

Five areas have seen the largest percentage increase in home values this year. In order to qualify for the list, a zip code had to record at least 20 sales so far in 2024. The zip code where home values have risen the most this year is 20814, which encompasses downtown Bethesda and the surrounding neighborhoods. Rising prices for 4-bedroom detached houses, as well as condos and co-ops drove appreciation up nearly 20%.The next area -- the Rockville zip code of 20852 -- saw prices rise 12% thanks also to prices increasing for larger detached houses.  The list is rounded out with three zip codes -- home to the 20816 area of Bethesda, Langley Park and portions of Silver Spring -- that all saw home values rise by around 10%-11%.
