Hunger Fighters Oregon is a local food resource for those experiencing food insecurity. Located across the street from the Mountain Park Shopping Center, 4 Monroe Parkway, it distributes food on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. They are in need of volunteers to help with cleaning and gleaning.
The cleaners work in small teams organizing the food donations so that the food pantry is organized and ready to go before they open to the public.
The gleaners travel to Gleaners of Clackamas County and collect the food that is donated there and then bring it back to the pantry and organize it.
Please also remember that donations are accepted 24/7 at the donation closet that is outside of the pantry next to the front door.
Real estate activity in Lake Oswego was slow last week with just 2 new listings, 7 pending sales, and 5 sold/closed properties.

This next week we will be flirting with snow and winter weather most of the week. Just over a year ago Lake Oswego had a massive winter storm that felled trees, knocked out power, and generally wreaked havoc. Those sorts of storms are rare. This winter has, in fact, been very mild. But you just don’t know. The time to prepare is before the storm hits.
Last winter my household was without power for 6 days. We do have equipment to cook and heat, all indoor rated, that require propane. We had to go to Hillsboro, a part of the metro area that wasn’t hit hard by the storm, to find propane. Around LO, it was all sold out. I never want to be caught in that situation again.
PGE puts out a really simple list of things that you can do to prepare for a storm:
Make sure that you have medication. If it needs refrigeration, have a cooler that you can put ice in.
If you have a generator, make sure that you have fuel and extension cords.
Plan to use flashlights instead of candles and make sure that you have batteries and back-up batteries in sufficient supply.
Make sure that you have drinking water.
Charge up your electronics and plan a way to recharge those devices. Get an adaptor for your car. Consider also having a portable charger. We found a battery operated one that could charge our phones and our portable devices.
Purchase ice or freeze containers of water to put into your freezer and refrigerator. Last year it was so cold that we simply bagged up the contents of our refrigerator and freezer and put it out into the garage.
Keep handy a list of important phone numbers such as for the doctor, hospital, and veterinarian.
Make sure that your car is accessible.
So far, the forecast next week is just a flirtation with winter. No major storm is forecast, thank goodness. We will have the chance of winter storms for about 6 more weeks, so plan ahead. Stay safe and stay warm.
Last week in Lake Oswego there were 11 new listings, 7 houses that went into pending status with an accepted offer, and 7 houses that closed escrow and are now considered sold.

Here is your breakdown from the previous month, November, for Portland and surrounding areas including LO broken out at the bottom. This is a once-a year opportunity to see how things compare to the data thru last Dec 31st., 2023) as well as usual the Nov to Dec changes. ***Be sure to check out the Neighborhood Re~ port which categorizes down into smaller pieces.
Overview/Fluctuations ~ December 2024 Market Data:
(**Check out my Neighborhoods Report toward the bottom for details specific to most Portland area neighborhoods or areas of interest.)
New Listings, Pending Sales and Closed Sales were all up from year-end 2023 and down from the previous month, November 2024. Average Sale Price is down slightly from last year and down significantly fron November, whereas the Median Sale Price remained approximately the same. Inventory continues to be low, and we also need to remember that this is somewhat normal for holiday time every year, as are fluctuations in activity. See the Year-End Neighborhood Report below where I compare the differences in Price and Appreciation/Depreciation for each area of the general Portland Metro Area. Happy 2025! It’s off to a busy start!
Rates:“Positive news on inflation has helped stabilize rates in the mid to upper 6% range” Gary Boyer, Regional VP, Gold Star Mortgage Financial

November through February are the leading months for carbon monoxide poisoning in the United States. It seems pretty obvious why. These are the coldest months of the year when we are in our homes, heating them, cooking, and living as warmly as possible.
Sources of carbon monoxide are surprisingly plentiful. Gas appliances such as furnaces, water heaters, and cooktops are obvious, but really, it’s bigger than that. Anything that burns gives off carbon monoxide. So things like oil furnaces and wood burning fireplaces also give off carbon monoxide.
When you sell your home you are required to have carbon monoxide detectors in the house.
There are also some simple steps you can take to stay safe:
Check you heating systems, fireplace, and gas appliances every year. Keep them clean and working properly.
Use caution with kerosene or gas space heaters.
Never use a gas range or oven to heat a home.
Use charcoal grills, hibachis or portable camping stoves outside.
Never run a gasoline powered engine (like for a generator) in a basement or enclosed structure.
Never leave the motor running in a vehicle parked in an attached garage or closed space.
It’s mostly common sense, but people being people, it’s good to get the word out.
Market activity has picked back up with 12 new listings, 7 pending sales, and 11 closed purchases in Lake Oswego last week. That is about twice what was happening the last couple of weeks of 2024. One of the new listings sold super fast and appears in this report as a pending sale.
I get excited as we come out of the holidays. My phone starts to ring and the energy builds as we move foreword into the new year. I love it!

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.
