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.

Criteria: (RMLS DATA) 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.
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.
See below for RMLS data.

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:

Criteria: (RMLS DATA) 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 June 2021:
New Listings and Closings increased in June, and/but Accepted Offers (Pendings) decreased from last year’s June figures as well as last month /May.
Inventory rose a whopping .1% in June (ha ha). We’re still at record (record) lows. While we’re talking records, check out those neighborhood appreciation levels below. Just wow.
My trusted mortgage advisor says rates are down a bit to 3.0%! Fed is indicating that they’ll continue to support the markets as the job picture improves.
According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, June 2021:
There were 4,298 New Listings in June 2021 increased 17.5% over April 2020’s 3,658 and increased 8.2% from the previous month/May’s 3,971.
At 3,477, June 2021’s Closed Sales are up 28.3% from June 2020’s 2,709, and also up 9.2% from the previous month/May’s total of 3,183
At 3,534, June 2021’s Pending Sales decreased 3.3% from June 2020’s 3,654, and also dropped 4.9% from the previous month/May’s total of 3,717.
The Average Sale Price in June 2021 of $597,100 is up $117,400 from last year/June2020’s $479,700, and up $14,900. from the previous month/May’s $582,200.
The “Median” Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in June 2021 of $521,000 rose $86,000 from last year/June 2020’s $435,000, and also increased $6,000 from the previous month/May’s $515,000.
LAKE OSWEGO
146 Active Listings (May 129)
262 New Listings (May 222)
202 Pending Sales (May223)
229 Closed Sales (May 199)
Average Sale Price for June: $1,018,100 (May $928,300)
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 there were 14 properties entering the market, 25 moving to Pending/accepted contract, and 20 that Sold/Closed. here is the latest according to 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.

Notice the light and assess the windows– Have they been updated? If not, that’s an investment ahead.
Try to ignore the staging and/or personal belongings– You’re potentially buying the house, and not these distracting things. They can, and in the case of staging, are meant to elicit emotional reactions in you. Stay focused on the house.
Ask about the heat source– Different heating/cooling methods can drastically change your experience of the home in both functionality and in cost to you. For instance, if the source is “Electric”, that can be more expensive if it refers to baseboard, and much less expensive if it is a mini-split system. Oil heat has its own challenges, and gas furnaces may or may not be up to the task of heating a home today, especially if its been remodeled and additional SF has been added.
Pay attention to how SF is presented– If a home is 2000SF, and 1000 of that is unfinished basement space, you may want to assess ahead of time if that is a home you want to view.
Lot size & amenitites– You have general ideas of either wanting lots of space and/or privacy, or wanting to be in a friendly “neighborhood” environment with smaller lots closer together. Each home will be different.
Do you have pets? If so, check out fencing and whether it’s adequate. If not, that can be fixed, but its an investment.
Some large lots will be set back and have minimal yard space to enjoy with most of the area in the entrance, say, or perhaps a good percentage of the lot’s SF is on a hill.
Some homes will be high maintenance, ie, if a home has that “falling in love” factor, and it is because of the beautiful gardens surrounding it on all sides….remember that those gardens need care- Are you a gardener? Are you OK with paying someone to maintain those grounds? Just good questions to ask yourself.
Some smaller lots may be set closer to the street with ample backyard space.
You’ll want to note whether the home has covered areas outside which can add more living space for you in the rainy months.
Is the flooring to your liking? – If not that can be fixed, but its an investment. On the other hand, if a home has everything you want, the price is right, and you hate carpet, flooring can likely be changed for much less than you imagine, and often for much less than it will cost you to keep looking and pay for a different home that is priced higher than the actual cost of flooring because it is called “updated” or “remodeled” in the Listing. It’s fairly common to have a flooring contractor lined up to do the flooring work the day after Closing so that your move-in timeline is only slightly affected.
Hate the kitchen counters? See my advice on flooring above.
Keep things in perspective- While many homes will just not fit the bill, in this market, it pays to really assess what is important and what can be changed to your liking with a little investment on your part after Closing. For years now Buyers have not been in the mood to make any changes and have generally been looking for “move-in-ready”. Right now, we are at historic lows in inventory and have been for many months. If you find a home that meets most of your needs and/but could use a tweak here & there, my advice is: Go for it! Consider it an opportunity to make it your own.
Even in the buildup to the Fourth of July we have strong activity. People are often holding off a bit when it comes to Listing during this week in anticipation of people being distracted over the holiday weekend, but we still had 7 Properties enter the market, with 27 Pending/Accepted Offers and 29 Sold/Closed. Right now there are 117 lovely homes available in Lake Oswego.
