Don’t Toss It, Fix It!

A repair fair is coming to Lake Oswego. Hosted by The Lake Oswego Sustainability Network and the Lake Oswego Public Library, the Repair Fair is happening on Saturday, November 15th, from 10am to 1pm, at Our Savior Lutheran Church, 15751 Quarry Rd.

Skilled volunteers will be on hand to help make repairs for free. You can bring clean clothes that need light mending, jewelry that needs repair, as well as small home appliances.

When I got my green designation for real estate, I learned the most sustainable thing a person can do when buying a home, is to buy one that has already been built. This holds true for our stuff as well. Repairing and continuing to use an item is far more sustainable for our planet than throwing it away and buying in new.

As always, thank you for reading the blotter.

Market Activity ~ Oct 20-26, 2025

Last week Lake Oswego saw 6 properties enter the market… and the funny thing is that 5 of them went Pending in the same week. That tells me there are Buyers out there and they’re watching what’s on the market… When you prepare a home nicely, price it just right, and it is new to the market, it tends to move, so Bravo to those Sellers! It also tells me what price range people are honing in on right now…one of the fast-movers was $1,695,000 but the rest were $599,000 to $824,900. There were a total of 10 that went Pending and the current number of homes available in Lake Oswego is 246 with a price range of $199,000 to $9,950,000.

The Great Pumpkin Toss

What to do with the left over pumpkins? Of course you can recycle them at curbside in your yard debris bin, but there is another option.

On Sunday, November 2nd, 2 to 5pm, bring your pumpkins, carved or not, to the fire tower at Westlake Park. (14165 Bunick Dr) Sponsored by the Lake Oswego Fire Department, you can climb the stairs in the fire tower and toss your pumpkins at a target below.

This free event is aimed toward supporting Hunger Fighters Oregon. Hunger Fighters Oregon is a food pantry in Lake Oswego (4 Monroe Pkwy A) that helps folks experiencing food insecurity. Participants in the pumpkin toss are asked to bring non-perishable, not expired goods to donate to the pantry. Thanksgiving/Holiday foods are particularly appreciated at this time of year. Think mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, broth, pie and bread mixes. All donations are appreciated.

Happy Halloween!

Portland Area Sept 2025 Stats + LO

Here is your look at the greater Portland area calculated for the previous month with Lake Oswego broken out at the bottom. ***Be sure to check out the Neighborhoods Report below which categorizes into smaller pieces.

Oct 18, 2025

Pricing Trends: N and SE Portland are showing steady downward movement in price during the last 3 months. NE Portland bumped up a bit in August but is also down price-wise from July. NW Portland is also on a steady 3-month trajectory downward in price, whereas West Portland & Lake Oswego are in a steady upward 3-month trend. The Gresham/ Troutdale area continues to be the metro area’s best bang for your buck as a Buyer. Common understanding is that all this movement is due to tumult over interest rates. We’ll see what happens the next few months as rates are expected to decline.

Rates:   The 30 year conventional rate is hovering around 6.5%.  The bond market expects the Federal Reserve to announce a .25 point reduction to Federal Funds discount rate at their next meeting on October 29th.                                                    

Gretchen Russell, Senior Mortgage Consultant, Two Rivers Mortgage.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area September 2025:

  • There were 2,498 New Listings in September which decreased 3.5% from the 2,076 in Sept 2024, & increased 0.9% from the 2,476 in the previous month/August.
  • At 1,825 September 2025’s Closed Sales (Solds) are up 7.2% from Sept 2024’s 1,702, and down 9.7% from previous month’s total of 2,021.
  • At 2,145 September’s Pending Sales (Accepted Offers) are up 3.3% from Sept 2024’s 2,076, and down 5.7% from the previous month/August’s total of 2,275 Accepted Offers.
  • The Average Sale Price for September 2025 of, $616,900 is down just $300. from last year/August 2024’s $617,200, and down $3,600 from the p­­revious month/August’s $620,500. 
  • The “Median Sale Price” (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in September 2025 of $545,000 is up $4,000 from September 2024’s $541,000, & down $5,000 from the previous month’s $550,000.    

LAKE OSWEGO: (Month of September ’25)

418 Active Listings (Aug 433)
120 New Listings  (Aug 140)
97 Pending Sales (Aug 119)
88 Closed Sales  (Aug 117)
Average Sale Price for August: $1,241,100 (Aug $1,095,800)
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.
62 Days on the Market   (Aug 81)
