Market Activity April 6-12, 2020

Doing this market activity report is super interesting in today’s market. Each week I am so eager to see what the numbers are. What I feel is happening is that yes, we’ve had a contraction in the market, but that it is stable. For the last few weeks the numbers have been pretty consistent. I think we have about half of what I would call “normal” activity, but it’s steady. In Lake Oswego last week we had 14 properties come onto the market, 11 accepted offers that put properties into pending status, and 13 closed/sold sales. While it is less than normal for April, it’s balanced. The range is 11-14 for all three categories.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

Market Activity ~ March 30-April 5, 2020

I thought I’d look at the same approx week last year and see what the stats looked like. Here is the summary:  “Last week 29 New properties entered the market, 16 moved to Pending status, and 15 were “Closed”/Sold. There are a total of 237 homes for sale in Lake Oswego right now.”

THIS year/Last week in Lake Oswego, 15 New properties entered the market, 7 moved to Pending status, and 11 were “Closed”/Sold. We also have 211 homes for sale here, right now.

What this tells me is that people were slowed-down on making Offers last week, but properties are still hitting the market, inventory is about the same albeit a little under last year, and the number of sales is pretty close to what it was a year ago. Basically… I get the feeling that people are rightly spooked about the health crisis, but are taking extreme precautions and at the same time not letting that stop them from carrying on with their dreams inasmuch as selling or buying is the vehicle to that dream.

Dianne and I are here for virtual consulting appointments if you’ve been thinking about exploring a life change adventure in Lake Oswego! Interest rates are looking really good, and there are lots of properties out there.

We’re all going to come out on the other side of this if we’re staying safe and moving carefully… step by step. We can help.

Market Activity March 23-29, 2020

Based upon the numbers from last week’s market activity, I think we are seeing a contraction in the market place. In Lake Oswego we had 11 properties come onto the market, 8 move into pending status, and 14 sold/closed sales. The silver lining is that of the 8 pending sales, 6 sold in less than a week. So buyers are out there and they are ready to make a move.

I also want to say that Linda and I have been in this business long enough, through 9/11 and the great recession, to know that real estate never stops. This is because people’s lives happen. Babies are born, folks get divorced or transferred, life does not stop. If you need to make a move, you can still do that. Linda and I will do everything in our power to make your move as smooth as possible. We are here to help.

Real Estate in the Time of COVID

Dear Property Blotter Readers,

Dianne and I are thinking of you during this challenging moment & wishing health and peace to you and yours. I hope this is a time of staying at home with your loved ones & enjoying some things you usually don’t get to enjoy.

I’m told by my trusted Mortgage Advisors that mortgage interest rates are supposed to dip to 3-ish again shortly as that zero interest rate flushes out the crush that happened a few weeks ago when they went down that low (the saturation pushed them back up to 4-ish for a time). Sales are actually moving along really well in Lake Oswego and the overall Portland area right now (see Market Report). Prices are lowering in some cases and being pushed up in others with multiple offers. In other words- the usual, and right now we have 182 Active Properties for sale in Lake Oswego, with 87 currently Pending and 22 Sold/Closed last week. 22 of those Active Properties went on the market just last week.

The other day RMLS removed the Open House section from the site. Some Agents will still choose to have them and be very careful, but most are not doing so out of an appropriate abundance of caution, for now. Everyone is being extremely careful with sanitizing everything and following Seller guidelines for private in-person showings. Buyers are demonstrating a bit more discernment up front & are seeing only properties they’ve decided are on their “serious” list, which cuts down on any potential exposure for everyone as we all do our part. Typically hand-sanitizer is out, booties are used for shoes, Buyers are advised not to touch anything (for them and for the Seller) and Agents will generally wipe the lockbox, door handles, switches etc. Buyers are encouraged to bring their own wipes & sanitizer with them and to wear gloves and/or masks as warranted either by Seller instruction or their own sensibilities. Some Sellers will want their own Agent at showings to observe that nothing is touched in the home so that their Seller can return home with their mind at ease, and/but either way, Agents are doing their utmost to ensure safe protocols are followed.

As for promoting Listings, there are, of course, cool tools that can and are being promoted more liberally like Virtual Open Houses, Video Walk-Through’s and other things. Ask me if you’re interested in learning more about that.

In general, we all are in this together, and the camaraderie at-a-distance and diligence in every sector of the real estate community is truly impressive ~ People helping people fulfill their life-goals and stay safe & healthy in the process.

Please take care and do get in touch with me or with Dianne if you have a life-goal you don’t really want to put off ; ) We can make it happen, efficiently and safely.

Be Well~
Linda

Market Activity March 9-15, 2020

I was really excited to do this market activity report. What’s on my mind is also what is on yours, the coronavirus. How is it affecting the real estate market? Well, as of last week, not much. New listings in Lake Oswego numbered 18, pending sales were 16 and closed/sold properties were 10. That’s right in line with what we have been experiencing. This is not to say that the coronavirus will not have an impact, but I like numbers. Numbers are factual. I think the importance of the market activity reports that Linda and I do has increased substantially.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

News & Notes ~ Feb Numbers 2020

Here is your look at the most recent data for the entire Portland area (February 2020) and how Lake Oswego fits in to this picture just below.

Inventory remains low and Buyers are out en force. Interest rates have taken a steep dive and that is fueling this busy season as well. We’ve got increases in every segment (New, Pending & Closed), with Pending & Closed Sales really jumping up from January, and everything up significantly from 2019. Sale Prices are up over Feb 2019, and down a little bit from January. Areas in & around Gresham, Oregon City, Milwaukie/Clackamas, & Hillsboro, are the strongest as far as Appreciation goes.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, February 2020:

  • There were 2,759  New Listings in February 2020 which increased 12.9%  from February of 2019’s 2,444, and also increased slightly at 0.2% from the previous month/January’s 2,754.
  • At 1,897, February 2020’s Closed Sales were up 9.9% over February 2019’s 1,726, and also up 14.1% from the previous month/January 2020’s total of 1,663.
  • At 2,598, February 2020’s Pending Sales rose 17.7% over February  2019’s 2,208, and rose 14.4% from the previous month/January 2020’s total of 2,271.
  • The Average Sale Price in February 2020 of $457,900 up $16,800 from last year/February 2019’s $441,100, and came down $5,100 from the previous month/January 2020’s $463,000.  
  • The “Median” Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in February 2020 of $407,000 was up from last year/February 2019’s $399,900 by $7,100, and up $1,000 from the previous month/January 2020’s $406,000.

    • Average Sale Price for February: $705,100  (Jan $712,600)
      • NOTE: Higher-Priced vs Lower-Priced Homes Sales can skew the “Average” in any given month.  Lake Oswego has quite a variety, so this tends to be a less meaningful stat, generally speaking, in this niche.
    •   86 Average Days on the Market   (Jan 117)
