I’ve got to say that real estate has become fun again. It is so nice to have happy people to work with and all of this gorgeous spring weather. Buyers are happy because prices are good and interest rates are low. Sellers are happy because their homes are selling quickly at and above the list price. All the way around it’s a win/win.
Last week in Lake Oswego there were 19 new listings, 34 pending sales, and 21 closed sales.
Here are further details regarding last week’s Market Activity, according to RMLS:
