This Month's Analysis

What’s happening in our market?

“We continue to see the Central Oregon market move toward greater balance. With inventory gains and the slowing of price appreciation, we’re finally seeing conditions ease up for buyers,” said Ryan Buccola, Broker/Owner RE/MAX Key Properties.

“Some buyers may be hesitant because of the rise in interest rates or looking towards other solutions like ARMs and FHA products. We are definitely starting to see the shock wear off, however, as rates continue to remain at historically low levels. It is important to realize that with inventory increasing, there are more opportunities for buyers, a leveling of home prices and a reduction in homes selling with multiple, contingent-free offers. It is also valuable to note that the median marketing times increased slightly last month from less than one week to 10 days.”
