Wishes of Peace

Dianne and I wish you and yours the happiest holiday ever!  Enjoy those things you treasure most, indulge in your fondest memories and go ahead… have that food that you usually do not. We wish for you that deep feeling of contentment that comes from the memories or the people or the combination of it all…  depending on your circumstances. Most of all we wish you a heart filled with a cherished, peaceful feeling. Maybe one from childhood where you could hear the big people still talking in the other room and knew you could fall asleep with all things well in the world. Whichever holiday you celebrate, we want you to know we truly appreciate you and will be thinking of you till we return from a little break. We’ll be back here with all the news and content we love to bring you about Lake Oswego after the New Year begins!

See you soon. May Peace reign in your life this holiday season~

Linda & Dianne

Here is your look at the most recent data for the entire Portland area (November 2019) and how Lake Oswego fits in to this picture just below.

Inventory is about the same as last month with a wide selection of homes still on the market in this now-holiday season. The biggest news in the overall numbers for November as compared with October is that almost everything is pretty nearly exactly the same, or at least not much has changed. The main exception would be the New & Closed numbers being down, but that is to be expected as we moved from October into the holiday season.

According to the RMLS Market Action Report for the Portland Metro Area, November, 2019:

  • There were 2,118  New Listings in November 2019 which was down 8.3%  from November of 2018’s 2,310, and  30.9% from the previous month/October’s 3,064.

  • At 2,274, November 2019’s Pending Sales rose 19.4% over November 2018’s 1,904, and fell 11.7% from the previous month/October 2019’s total of 2,575.
  • The Average Sale Price in November 2019 of $462,600 up $13,700 from last year/November 2018’s $448,900, and up $1,200 from the previous month/October 2019’s $461,400.  
  • The “Median” Sale Price (the price smack dab in the middle of all sales) in November 2019 of $415,000 was up from last year/November 2018’s $391,400 by $23,600, and up $4,500 from the previous month/October 2019’s $410,500.

Market Activity ~ Nov 25-Dec 1, 2019

Last week 5 New properties entered the market, 12 moved to Pending status, and 10 were “Closed”/Sold.

Its officially “Holiday Season”, so new properties get scarcer for a few weeks, and/but we have a great inventory already at 183 homes for sale right now in Lake Oswego. This week we only saw 5 properties truly enter the market, however, I did delete 5 that had been “refreshed” with a new ML#, which is also a mark of the season. Overall, Life is good, and folks continue to buy and sell property for a whole host of reasons, so… If you’re looking to make a change that involves either of these, Dianne and I are always busy this time of year, AND always here for you. And… like a broken record, this is an incredible time of year to catch focused, serious Buyers and motivated Sellers. Win/win.

Following is the breakdown for you according to RMLS:
