Portland Area Oct 2024 Stats + LO

Here is your breakdown from the previous month, October, for Portland and surrounding areas including LO broken out at the bottom. ***Be sure to check out the Neighborhood Report which categorizes down into smaller pieces.

Overview/Fluctuations ~ October 2024 Market Data:       

The Portland area is humming along, though Fall is a slower market traditionally as people enter the “Black Hole of the Holidays”. This year we were impacted with higher than expected rates & many holding off amidst election uncertainty to proceed in 2025 afresh. So, we are seeing a lot of Sellers removing their homes from the market & deciding to re-list in the Spring or after the first of the year. All that said, Closed Sales rose from both October 2023 & 2024, so perhaps that was a burst of Offers accepted right after the hotly anticipated/ultimately disappointing (for immediate mortgage rate relief) Fed rate cut on Sept 18th? Average Sale Price on the whole was down due to Buyer pressure as well.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area October 2024:

  • There were 2,283 New Listings in October which is up 3.4% from the 2,207 in Oct 2023 and down 11.8% from the 2,589 in the previous month/Sept.
  • At 1,975 Oct 2024’s Closed Sales (Solds) are up 18.3% from Oct 2023’s 1,670 and up 16.0% from the previous month’s total of 1,702.
  • At 2,018 Oct 2024’s Pending Sales (Accepted Offers) increased 24.2% from Oct 2023’s 1,625, and decreased 2.8% over the previous month/Sept’s total of 2,076.
  • The Average Sale Price for October 2024 of, $604,200 is up$11,500. from last year/Oct 2023’s $592,700, and down $13,000 (!!) from the p­­revious month/Sept’s $617,200. 
  • The “Median Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in Oct 2024 of $540,000 is up $15,000 over Oct 2023’s $525,000, and less by $1,000 than Sept’s $541,000.    

LAKE OSWEGO: (Month of October ’24)

305 Active Listings (Sep 325)
108 New Listings  (Sep 123)
90 Pending Sales (Sep 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.

Market Activity Oct 14-20, 2024

New listings had a pretty big bump up last week with 20 new properties coming onto the market. It had me wondering why. There are two thoughts that come to my mind. First, many corporations align their fiscal year with the calendar year. Listing a property now will allow them to, hopefully, write off the costs associated with relocating an employee and writing it off in this fiscal year. My other thought is that people in general prefer to move before the holidays fully take over their lives. In any case, that’s a pretty bump from the dozen or so new listings that we’ve been seeing for sometime now.

There were 8 properties that moved to pending status and 13 closed sales.

Portland Area Sept 2024 Stats + LO

Here is your breakdown from the previous month, September, for Portland and surrounding areas including LO broken out at the bottom. ***Be sure to check out the Neighborhood Report which categorizes down into smaller pieces.

Overview/Fluctuations ~ Sept 2024 Market Data:       

The big news for September is that there is no real big news. Things are shifting slowly following the Fed’s interest rate cut on Sept 18, and this is taking some time to impact on the ground. The things we are seeing include increasing Pending sales (not decreasing) from the month prior, modestly increasing Inventory, most neighborhoods back in appreciation territory, and/but overall downward pressure on price with “time on market” increasing from 48 days in August to 55 days in Sept, further indicating Buyers waited it out. Though it takes time for the Fed’s actions to impact mortgage rates, it is happening, & we see increased activity and notably happier Buyers out making Offers!

Rates: “Strong jobs numbers have halted rates dropping, but the Fed has signaled more cuts ahead which should help. Right now we are in the low 6% range.” Gary Boyer, Regional VP, Gold Star Mortgage Financial  

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area September 2024:

  • There were 2,589 New Listings in September which is down 4.6% from 2,713 in Sept 2023 and down 3.0% from the 2,669 in the previous month/August.
  • At 1,702 Sept 2024’s Closed Sales (Solds) are down 0.9% from Sept 2023’s 1,717 and down 13.0% from the previous month’s total of 1,957.
  • At 2,076 Sept 2024’s Pending Sales (Accepted Offers) increased 14.8% from Sept 2023’s 1,809, and increased 1.2% over the previous month/August’s total of 2,052.
  • The Average Sale Price for September 2024 of, $617,200 is up$21,300. from last year/Sept 2023’s $595,900, and down $3,600 from the p­­revious month/August’s $620,800. 
  • The “Median Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in Sept 2024 of $541,000 is up $3,700 from Sept 2023’s $537,400, & down $14,000 from August’s $555,000

Market Activity Sept 30-Oct 6

We are having the most beautiful fall weather. Cold, crisp mornings followed by pleasant and sunny afternoons. With all of the disastrous weather in other parts of the country, I am grateful to live in the Pacific Northwest.

Last week in Lake Oswego there were 11 new listings, one of which sold in just 1 day and appears as a pending sale in this report. There were 8 properties that accepted offers and are now pending. There were 15 closed sales.

See below for RMLS data.

Market Activity Sept 16-22, 2024

Fall is in the air with dropping temperatures at night and glorious sunny days. In my household, we are looking forward to the return of rain and fires in the fireplace. Oregon is gorgeous in the fall!

Market activity seems a bit slower. Last week in LO there were 13 new listings, 12 pending sales, and 8 closed sales. Even with things slowing down, the market remains balanced.

See below for RMLS data.

Portland Area August 2024 Stats + LO

Here is your breakdown from the previous month/August for Portland and surrounding areas including LO broken out at the bottom. ***Be sure to check out the Neighborhood Report which categorizes down into smaller pieces.

Overview/Fluctuations ~ August 2024 Market Data:       

Prices were notably declining across much of the Portland area during August (see Neighborhood Report below), with a few exceptions mostly in outer metro areas. New Listings are down 8.7% from last year at this time, and Pending sales are down 6.3% from the previous month/July. Anecdotally, we’ve noticed Buyers & Sellers saying they’re holding off till the Fed lowers rates… ***which it just did*** by ½ point! It also announced another likely rate cut this year. I guess we’ll see if that spurs more activity for our usual upswing in the Fall. Inventory is rising consistently if slightly.

Rates: “The Federal Reserve is confident inflation is in check. Rates should be solidly in the 5’s soon!”.      Gary Boyer, Regional VP, Gold Star Mortgage Financial  

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area August 2024:

  • There were 2,669 New Listings in August which is down 8.7% from 2,923 in August 2023 and down 8.1% from the 2,905 in the previous month/July.
  • At 1,957 August 2024’s Closed Sales (Solds) are down 9.2% from August 2023’s 2,155 and down 5.7% from the previous month’s total of 2,075.
  • At 2,052 August 2024’s Pending Sales (Accepted Offers) changed 0.0% from August 2023’s 2,053, and decreased 6.3% from the previous month/July’s total of 2,191.
  • The Average Sale Price for August 2024 of, $620,800 is up$12,500. from last year/August 2023’s $608,300, and down $2,100 from the p­­revious month/July’s $622,900. 
  • The “Median Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in August 2024 of $555,000 is up $19,000 August 2023’s $536,000, & up $5,000 from July’s $550,000    

LAKE OSWEGO: (Month of August ’24)

329 Active Listings (July 337)
127 New Listings  (July 169)
92 Pending Sales (July 116)
99 Closed Sales  (July 104)
Average Sale Price for August: $1,050,500 (July $1,156,200)
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.
52 Days on the Market   (July 74)

The data listed above is as reported by the Regional Multiple Listing Service (RMLS)

Market Activity ~ Sept 9-15, 2024

Last week Lake Oswego saw 14 properties enter the market (New), 19 move to Pending status, and 14 that Sold/Closed. Right now there are 221 properties available ranging from $190,000 to $11,900,000.

It’ll be interesting to see how activity changes, if it does, now that the Fed has lowered by 1/2 a point, and announced it would again before the end of the year. It seems a lot of people have been waiting for this news.
