Lake Oswego Real Estate Activity – October 6-12, 2008

Sellers beware. This week’s SOLD properties averaged nearly 20% price discounts from their original list price and 160 days on market.

Some of them appear to have had hugely inflated seller expectations initially. To be sure, every situation has its own story, but a strong pricing strategy makes a huge difference in buyer perception and ultimately, market time.

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Cost vs. Value for Your Remodeling Dollar

You may have noticed that the market has been changing for awhile now. Many buyers are out this fall scouting for great deals (they are not hard to find!), and many sellers who are pricing and marketing appropriately are benefiting from the uptick in activity in Lake Oswego (see Ron’s blog post of Monday 9/29). It is also true that some decided in the spring and summer to spruce up their homes in anticipation of changing market conditions, and the expectation of reaping some profit from their efforts when the time comes to sell.

I thought you might find it interesting to note some of the trends in the 2007 “cost vs. value” report for the Portland area according to www.costvsvalue.com. The data for Portland is “Pacific” data as compared to national averages. Here are some tidbits to hopefully give you an idea of what you might expect as a return for your remodeling investment according to this report:

Midrange Projects: Pacific / National Average

Deck Addition/Wood / 108% / 85.4%

Minor Kitchen Remodel / 103.5% / 83%

Window Replacement/Wood / 102.9% / 81.2%

Window Replacement/Vinyl / 98.5% / 79.3%

Basement Remodel / 96.8% / 75.1%

Bathroom Remodel / 96.6% / 78.3%

Major Kitchen Remodel / 96.6% / 78.1%

Two-Story Addition / 90.9% / 73.9%

Garage Addition / 88% / 69.5%

Master Suite Addition / 87.2% / 69%

Roofing Replacement / 85.1% / 67.4%

Family Room Addition / 84.8% / 68.6%

Bathroom Addition / 83.5% / 66%

Upscale Projects:

Window Replacement/Wood / 103.4% / 79.3%

Window Replacement/Vinyl / 100.7% / 81%

Deck Addition/Composite / 98.4% / 77.6%

Major Kitchen Remodel / 88.9% / 74.1%

Bathroom Remodel / 84.7% / 68.4%

Bathroom Addition / 84.1% / 69%

Roofing Replacement (Steel) / 79.9% / 65.7%

Garage Addition / 78.1% / 64.6%

Master Suite Addition / 77.3% / 64.1%

Lake Oswego Real Estate Activity – September 22-28, 2008

Real estate activity in Lake Oswego is experiencing a late summer/early fall resurgence as 24 new properties come on the market last week, while 8 homes go sale pending and 12 houses close escrow two weeks ago.

This little bump in transactions is similar to the Portland metro market as a whole, which I think will approach 70% of 2007’s activity level, as opposed to the 65% we’ve seen throughout the year.

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):

Lake Oswego Open Houses – September 27-28, 2008

We took a break from posting the weekend Open House list for Lake Oswego over the past few weeks. Not sure if anyone cared or noticed, but some over at our sister (or is it cousin) blog, move2westlinn, noticed and put in a nice request.

If this is something you’d like to see us continue, please drop us a comment at the end of this post.

Lake Oswego Real Estate Market Activity – September 8-14, 2008

Jantzen Island on Lake OswegoThe past week featured just a handful of closed sales, but a healthy number of homes went sale pending.

Perhaps the most notable news is the appearance of a, yes it’s not a typo, $19,500,000 listing off Northshore Blvd. It’s actually a private island, the 1930 Jantzen Island estate, with 6 tax lots, 5 and a half acres, and over 13,000 sq. ft. living space between the main house and the guest house.

In addition to the mortgage, you will also need to come up with $97,000 per year in property taxes. Plug THAT into your Quicken budget…

Here is the latest market activity for Lake Oswego (see below the tables for additional notes):
