Criteria:Homes in the 97034 and 97035 zip code, listed, pending or sold between the dates listed above as reported by the Regional Multiple Listing Service (RMLS). DETACHD refers to Single Family Detached Residence, MFG refers to manufactured housing, and ATTACHD refers to single-family residences with some portion of the structure attached to another property, but not constituting CONDO ownership. DOM stands for days on market, or the number of days from when the listing became active and when it received an acceptable offer, with CDOM standing for “cumulative days on market” accounting for “refreshed” listings.
Hmmmmmm…. Not to bum you California readers out, but this is a pretty dreary week in Lake Oswego! I so often hear from family and friends in California though, that they really LOVE rain, and I can relate. Nothing better than to curl up with a book (or a laptop) by a fire near a window with a nice view & hear the rain on the roof. Lots of coffee shops prosper here for the same reason.
We have yet to see what the weather is going to look like this winter. I hear that at the recent “weather conference” held here in Lake Oswego, experts were torn over whether we would be having a relatively dry season, or even MORE snow than we had last year…. quite a gap in understanding among experts… (any readers who attended this conference or who would like to chime in are welcome!).
Lake Oswego turns 100!
Well, we are only 99 right now, but Lake Oswego is turning 100 in 2010. Already planning is underway for a “year-long celebration” that will kick off in January with a film at the Lakewood Center giving an overview of the city’s history and unveiling the “Lake Oswego Building Blocks” display; a visual history of 20 of the city’s neighborhoods which will remain on display throughout the year.
There will also be a scavenger hunt that will begin after the kick-off and last thru March (!!!) with clues given each week via he Lake Oswego Review and the city’s official website.
For more info or to get involved, contact Kern-Schilling at 503-675-3983, attend a community meeting at 5:30 p.m. Nov. 5 at the West End Building or visit the Web site www.lakeoswego100.com later this month.
City Revisits “Affordable Housing”
There was an interesting article in the Lake Oswego Review about a week ago that highlighted some citizens’ work toward ensuring that in particular seniors, but also lower income families and individuals, have access to affordable housing. Paul Lyons, along with Ralph Tahran have been meeting with City Counselor Roger Hennigan and other interested parties. Mr. Lyons led a discussion at a recent city council meeting. He pointed out that the planning department is undergoing a periodic review of the Comprehensive Plan, and is hopeful that this is a good time to reintroduce this discussion which was sidelined in 2005. Here is a link to the article for anyone interested: Affordable Housing The article has generated lively debate in Lake Oswego.
Market Action Report
It is almost time for the October Market Action Report to be released by RMLS. I think it is interesting to note that there has been a new column added to the Residential Market Highlights and the Area Report called “Total Market Time”. This is an average of the cumulative number of days a property has been truly on the market. This time does not reset unless a property has been off the market for more than 30 days, and this statistic is evidently calculated for listings that sell in the month and year-to-date time periods that apply to any issue of Market Action. You know that Dianne and I have often mentioned the confusion that sometimes results from how “Days on Market” are shown when a property relists but is really not a new listing, and so I am glad to see this change in the Market Action Report which will more accurately reflect a property’s actual time on the market before sale.
Wow. This is some kind of a record for the Blotter. There were 14 New properties that came on the market, and nearly all of them were truly fresh listings. The only one that would not necessarily be something I would categorize as “New”, being as it was not off the market for at minimum 30 days, is the Sherbrook property, but I included it as it went to bank-owned status and that is a significant change. There were 6 that went to Pending status, and a whopping 22 that Sold in Lake Oswego last week according to RMLS.

Geez… It’s November already! You know what that means… Halloween’s over, Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away, and then the Holidays, gift-giving… OK, I’ll stop : ) Right now it’s Fall, and Sunday is supposed to be a nice one w/sunshine and some decent temperatures. Also, the announcement that we are pretty darned close to an extension of the First-Time-Home-Buyer Tax Credit (which additionally applies, by the way, to those who have not owned a home for three years now) and the proposal of an additional $6500. Tax Credit for those “Buying Up” if you meet income guidelines (under $125,000. for an individual or $225,000. for couple filing jointly) and purchase a house for $800,000. or less. And you thought your dreams were going to have to wait!
Dianne and I are, as always, here for you.
There are 26 properties on tour in Lake Oswego Sunday according to RMLS (including the Luxury Townhomes at 363 Sixth St in First Addition) :
It isn’t often that we shine the spotlight on any particular property, but when we heard that the new luxury town homes on Sixth St in sought-after First Addition had just lowered their prices by $100,000 each to $599,900., Dianne and I just had to run over there and take a look.
There are six of these little gems with four of them left & available for purchase. The address is 363 Sixth St., and the ML# if you want to get a preview is 9057549. Each has 2258 SF, 3 bedrooms, 3 & 1/2 baths, 2 levels with additional full finished basements, and probably just everything you’ve been looking for.
First of all, they really are gorgeous. The finishes in these are superior. The first feature you notice inside are the beautiful plank maple hardwood floors. A sleek yet spacious slab granite kitchen with long island, pantry & light beech cabinets also boasts additional built-ins and smart features like a pull-down bar. The dark french doors to the front porch area off the dining room are a rich contrast, and the white wainscoting throughout adds that crisp old-world cottage feel. The 2-car detached garage out back with private courtyard to the house is an added bonus in First Addition, and from there you enter the great room compete with gas fireplace and more built-ins.
Downstairs you find another gas fireplace and generous media room as well as another bedroom & bathroom w/an additional laundry area for guests or your reclusive teenager. Upstairs is the master bedroom & bath showing off glorious travertine w/onyx, a clawfoot tub & separate shower as well as an additional bathroom w/soaker tub & yet another bedroom. Walk-in closets of course, and the main laundry near the upstairs bedrooms check those final “must-haves” off the list.
Overall, these are just so unique & have that easy-living feel that goes hand in hand with the First Addition lifestyle… you know, walking to all the services, trendy shops and restaurants, not to mention Millenium Park Plaza for a view of the lake & all the festive local activities like Farmer’s Market, open air Movie Nights, Holiday Tree-Lighting festivities and on & on. First Addition is just a strolling kinda place; a small-town feel with all the amenities. Cottage Living magazine named First Addition as one of the ten best cottage communities in the country. American Planning Association name it one of the top 10 neighborhoods in America. The accolades go on & on.
Yes, these are nice indeed. But you know, on the practical side, in addition to the location & amazing price when comparing features & finishes to other offerings, there are also NO HOA fees. Compare that with other HOA’s nearby at anywhere from $136./month to $455./mo.
Come on down & take a look. Bring a Realtor as there has been a lot of interest. They will be held open both Saturday & Sunday from 1 – 4.
There were 17 New properties that came on the market, 13 that went to Pending status, and 4 that Sold in Lake Oswego last week according to RMLS.
We hope that our weekly real estate status updates regarding activity in Lake Oswego are helpful to you.

Sunday is supposed to be our best day of the week… i.e., Sunshine! Get out and enjoy touring some Open Houses in Lake Oswego, and give Dianne or me a call if you are not working with a Realtor and end up finding the house of your dreams! We’d be happy to represent you, and always have time for you.
There are 26 properties on tour in Lake Oswego tomorrow according to RMLS:
Here are a few local events & opportunities currently offered Lake Oswego residents. Wish you were here? We do too! Enjoy:

Sensitive Lands ~ Lake Oswego is offering a Workshop and FAQ site in response to the tremendous interest of citizenry in the Sensitive Lands policies under discussion now.
There were 34 properties classified in RMLS as “New” on the market last week, but only 12 of them truly are, and are listed as such for you below. We had 14 properties go to “Pending” status, and 21 “Sold”!
Ah… the beauty of the Portland area in the Fall… just the time for a new start in a new home. Lake Oswego is so gorgeous once all the leaves begin to turn. With some rain last week, we are again back to sunshine and seasonably pleasant temperatures around 69/70. Nights are getting chilly though… and there is that beautiful smell in the air. So fresh. We’ll get pictures up here for you once the leaves turn. For now, enjoy your property search/sale adventures, & don’t forget to email or call Dianne or myself if you need a Realtor and are not currently working with one. We would love to meet you.
Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Gorgeous day today (Sat)… Gorgeous day tomorrow!
Is it Fall? Yes. Could there be a few raindrops in between the blinding sunshine? Yes! Is it fun to take in the change of season? Absolutely! (sorry for all the exclamations… against all my better judgement that says “winter is coming…” I really enjoy Fall : )
We have 29 properties on tour in Lake Oswego tomorrow according to RMLS. Get out & enjoy!
It isn’t often that we shine the spotlight on any particular property, but when we heard that the new luxury town homes on Sixth St in sought-after First Addition had just lowered their prices by $100,000 each to $599,900., Dianne and I just had to run over there and take a look.
ML# if you want to get a preview is 9057549. Each has 2258 SF, 3 bedrooms, 3 & 1/2 baths, 2 levels with additional full finished basements, and probably just everything you’ve been looking for.
cabinets also boasts additional built-ins and smart features like a pull-down bar. The dark french doors to the front porch area off the dining room are a rich contrast, and the white wainscoting throughout adds that crisp old-world cottage feel. The 2-car detached garage out back with private courtyard to the house is an added bonus in First Addition, and from there you enter the great room compete with gas fireplace and more built-ins.
Downstairs you find another gas fireplace and generous media room as well as another bedroom & bathroom w/an additional laundry area for guests or your reclusive teenager. Upstairs is the master bedroom & bath showing off glorious travertine w/onyx, a clawfoot tub & separate shower as well as an additional bathroom w/soaker tub & yet another bedroom. Walk-in closets of course, and the main laundry near the upstairs bedrooms check those final “must-haves” off the list.
Overall, these are just so unique & have that easy-living feel that goes hand in hand with the First Addition lifestyle… you know, walking to all the services, trendy shops and restaurants, not to mention Millenium Park Plaza for a view of the lake & all the festive local activities like Farmer’s Market, open air Movie Nights, Holiday Tree-Lighting festivities and on & on. First Addition is just a strolling kinda place; a small-town feel with all the amenities. Cottage Living 
magazine named First Addition as one of the ten best cottage communities in the country. American Planning Association name it one of the top 10 neighborhoods in America. The accolades go on & on.
Come on down & take a look. Bring a Realtor as there has been a lot of interest. They will be held open both Saturday & Sunday from 1 – 4.
Here are a few local events & opportunities currently offered Lake Oswego residents. Wish you were here? We do too! Enjoy:
