Market Activity Nov 5-11, 2018

It’s starting to feel like the Holidays. Last week in Lake Oswego we had 11 new listings, 15 pending sales, and 7 closed/sold properties. Notice that the pending sales are still a pretty healthy number. That is because at this time of year buyers want to make an offer now to be in their new home by Christmas. This, combined with low new inventory, actually makes this a pretty good time to have your house on the market.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

News & Notes ~ Sept 2018 Data

Inventory is higher & prices have evened out a bit. Sounds like a good time to buy!  Its said that when the inventory gets to around 4.0 months, it becomes a balanced market. We’re not *quite* there, yet, but it is a leveling-out market now for sure, and fall is always a great time to buy anyway ; )

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

  • According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, September, 2018:
    • There were 3,606 New Listings in September 2018 which was down slightly at  1.0% from September of 2017’s 3,644, and also down 14.4% from the previous month/August of 2018’s total of 4,214 .

Market Activity Sept 24-30, 2018

Last week in Lake Oswego new listings were down to just 13. By the time we get to Christmas they’ll get to as few as 4 or 5. But think about that, even at Christmas folks are listing their homes for sale. The market is always happening! Along with 13 new listings, there were 19 properties that went into pending status and 23 sold/closed sales. 19 pending and 23 sold is right in line with what we’ve had happening since the end of August. This means that the buyers are still out there making offers. This is a great circumstance for selling!

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:

News & Notes ~ August Numbers 2018

Activity continues to be mixed in the Portland area.  A lot of it is seasonal/happens every year. Some looks like a slight cooling trend.

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

  • According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, August, 2018:
    • There were 4,214 New Listings in August 2018 which was up 4.1% from August of 2017’s 4,048, and down 2.3% from the previous month/July of 2018’s total of 4,312 .
    • At 2,967, August Closed Sales fell  2.2% from August 2017’s 3,034, and/but were up 8.4 % from the previous month/July 2018’s total of 2,736.
    • August’s Pending Sales (accepted offers), at 2,760 were cooler at 10.2% down from August of 2017’s 3,072, and 10.1% down as well from the previous month/July 2018’s total of  3,071.
    • The Average Sale Price in August of $462,400 was up $26,700 from August 2017’s $436,400, and also up from the previous month/July 2018’s $455,100 by $7,300.

  • North Portland:  $403,000              4.6%   (July 415,900)

    •  58 Average Days on the Market   (July 53)

Market Activity Sept 10-16, 2018

I think we are at an interesting juncture in the real estate market. We have all heard of a “buyer’s” market, where buyers are in control, and a “seller’s” market, where sellers get what they want. I think right now our market is very balanced. I look at the closed and pending sales from last week, combined they equal 41 properties, and 13 of them, about 25%, sold in less than 2 weeks. 11 took more than 3 months to sell. Bottom line is price your property right and you will sell quickly and likely have a very smooth transaction. Over pricing leads to extended market time. That is just how it works.

Last week in Lake Oswego we had 17 new listings, 21 properties go into pending status, and 20 closed/sold homes.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:
