Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers and is traditionally observed on the first Monday in September. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894 under President Grover Cleveland.
Peter J.McGuire, a carpenter and labor union leader and Matthew Maguire were the two who who came up with the idea for Labor Day. They thought American workers should be honored with their own day. Peter was the vice president of the American Federation of Labor and Matthew was secretary of the Central Labor Union in New York. Some stories say these men with similar last names were actually brothers. In any case, they chose a date midway between the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving. The weather would be ideal for parades and picnics, two events we still enjoy on Labor Day today. They proposed his idea to New York’s Central Labor Union early in 1882, and they thought the holiday was a good idea, too. This holiday was in response to a series of worker strikes in the late 19th century as workers protested against unfair working conditions.
The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later, on September 5, 1883.

This last week in Lake Oswego we had 12 Properties enter the market, 27 go Pending (Accepted Offers) and 30 Closed/Sold. There are 80 wonderful homes for sale in Lake Oswego right now.
The City of Lake Oswego is starting a brand new program to help residents learn to live a more sustainable life by reducing their carbon footprint, engaging as good citizens, and recycling. At www.lakeoswego.city/ecohomelo you can sign up to partcipate and learn details of the program.
The program is administered on line. You’ll find check lists that address:
Reduce Reuse and Recycle
Energy Conservation
Water Conservation
Transportation
Social Equity
Ecological Conservation
Civic Engagement
Emergency Preparedness
Construction & Renovation
Apartments and Rental Housing
& Encouraging Others to Participate
Upon accomplishng a preset number of goals, the house will be awarded a lawn sign that states that it is an EcoHome.
I suspect that we will start to see these signs popping up in our neighborhoods, and now you know what they are all about. I also think it’s a terrific program because of what it encourages, but also because it is so comprehensive.
It is certainly feeling like the dog days of summer. Numbers in Lake Oswego were down last week. Still healthy, but not quite as frantic as it was just a couple of weeks ago. We had 12 houses come onto the market, 26 move into pending status, and 16 closed/sold properties.
See below for RMLS details.

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.
Here is your look at the latest numbers as released by RMLS for the overall Portland area and how Lake Oswego fits in just below.
Overview/Fluctuations ~ Market Data July 2021: Things typically start to slow a bit in July. We saw a change in the usual pattern last year with activity pushing through the summer months. This year there is still lots of activity, but for two months in a row we see prices in some areas looking like they *may* be showing signs of jockeying into some kind of stabilization. We’ll check again next month.
Inventory rose another .1% in July, so people are perhaps starting to reach the end of their “waiting-to-sell” ropes. We usually see an uptick in the fall after vacations, so again, we’ll take a look at the trend next month to see if there really is a pattern developing. If there is… I can only say it’s a pretty subdued one. Houses are still hard to come by driving higher prices. Rates are around 3.125%.
According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, July 2021:
There were 4,267 New Listings in July 2021 increasing 0.7% over July 2020’s 4,236 and decreasing 0.7% from the previous month/June’s 4,298.
At 3,439, July 2021’s Closed Sales are up 1.4% from July 2020’s 3,391, dropping 1.1% from the previous month/June’s total of 3,477
At 3,534, June 2021’s Pending Sales decreased 8.3% from July 2020’s 3,656, and also dropped 5.1% from the previous month/June’s total of 3,534.
The Average Sale Price in July 2021 of $593,100 is up $90,800 from last year/July2020’s $502,300, and down $4,000. from the previous month/June’s $597,100.
The “Median” Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in July 2021 of $522,000 rose $77,000 from last year/July 2020’s $445,000, and also increased $1,000 from the previous month/June’s $521,000.
LAKE OSWEGO:
165 Active Listings (June 146)
214 New Listings (June 262)
177 Pending Sales (June202)
184 Closed Sales (June 229)
Average Sale Price for July: $1,020,600 (June $1,018,100)
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.
This last week we saw 10 properties enter the market, 31 move to Pending status (accepted offers) and 26 that Closed/Sold. This is the first time in awhile that I’ve not eliminated any “refreshed” properties from the “New” category…no need for refreshing, I suppose. Right now there are 90- beautiful homes available in Lake Oswego.

As you saw from last week’s post that Linda wrote, she and I attended the Street of Dreams. Running until August 22nd, it is currently happening in Happy Valley on the East side of the metro area.
When I go through the street of dreams, I like to look for trends. What we see at the Street of Dreams, we also start to see in new construction and in remodeling.
This year’s event was entirely different because they have two locations. On location has million dollar homes and high-end finishes. The other location has homes that are $500,000 to the low $600’s. The trends I am going to talk about here are from the more expensive houses.
Beamed ceilings
I’ve always liked the look of beamed ceilings. They just make a house feel more substantial. I did find my self questioning how structural they actually are. Or if they are simply decorative. In any case, I like this trend.
Outdoor living areas
The outdoor living areas in the 3 expensive houses are just gorgeous. I feel like every home, even condos and apartments, should have nice outdoor spaces to relax and socialize. All of the areas on these homes had fireplaces, plenty of room for seating, and usually kitchen equipment like BBQs, sinks, and refrigerators. They are lovely.
Lots of gray and white
The gray is a deep, dark, gun-metal shade. It was painted over entire rooms, used for kitchen cabinets, and for built-ins. It’s a classic shade. It goes well with pops of color of pretty much any shade that you like, but it is mostly paired with white. I feel like this is a color that you could live with and enjoy for many, many years. While being a trend, it’s a timeless one.
Chunky light fixtures
The last Street of Dreams I attended, in 2019, the light fixtures were also a stand out. At that event they seemed very stream-lined and modern looking. At this year’s event, they’re just the opposite. I’m not so sure I like this trend. Frankly, the fixture posted here looks like a fire hazard.
The housing village
I actually think that this was my favorite part of the show. Made with at least 2, and possibly 3, shipping containers, it just looks like a brilliant solution for our housing shortage. The main container has a very nice bathroom, kitchen, dining area, and small living room. This structure also had 2 bedrooms. Then a second structure, that is clearly a full shipping container, had 3 bedrooms, each with it’s own entrance. Having your own bedroom/living space allows some autonomy. I don’t know the cost of contruction, but I imagine it’s substantially less than traditional construction. Brilliant.
Pleasant Valley Village
The 3 houses featured at the second location are much more affordable. Priced in the 500 and 600 thousand range, these houses will sell quickly. I really like the idea of having the two price ranges. It is the Street of Dreams, and for nearly everyone, the dream is of owning a home. While the expensive homes are fun to look at, they are way outside of most people’s budgets. So having some affordable homes is a great idea. Having said that, I do wish there had been more than one builder represented. The 3 houses that are on the tour are all built by Holt Homes. They are essentially the model homes for a new subdivision. It felt a bit like just one huge advertisement for this builder.
I hope you have the ability to check out this year’s street of dreams. For more information, click here.
The market in LO is still red hot. A few weeks ago, right around July 4th, it felt like it may have slowed down a tad. Last weeks rush of new listings (20), pending sales (36!), and sold/closed properties (29) has proved that tad of a slow down was just July 4th distractions.

Monday, August 9th is Realtor Day at the Street of Dreams. Dianne and I decided to get a jump on everything and visited a day early. I know she wants to do a post on trends, so I won’t share the most fun pictures with you, but here we are as real human Realtors doing the hard investigative work for YOU!
Here is Dianne in very good hands (sorry…couldn’t resist : )
Again… we work hard for you.
Dianne hated this bathroom ; )
AND we’re learning that (as we wipe our brows) we really need to avail ourselves of the help that has become so common in all of our lives. (So bougie…)
Lastly, with all that energy we save by not having to mow our lawns, we can now relax with a few of our best moves on the court.
Seriously, it was a lovely day. Dianne and I get to see a lot of homes obviously, but its always a treat to see the latest trends in layout, materials, fixtures & colors. As I mentioned, Dianne will be covering these trends, so I’ll let her share the meaty stuff, but I will say that it is very worth your while this year. Here is a link to get your ticket! You may visit 10AM-9PM through August 22nd. They’re closed Mondays & Tuesdays. CLICK HERE
There were 11 homes entering the market last week, 19 that moved to Pending status (accepted offers) and 30 that Closed/Sold. Right now there are 109 lovely properties available in Lake Oswego!
Here is the breakdown using RMLS data:
