Are Bend Real Estate Trends Changing?

Coming out of the record breaking winter Bend had 2016/2017, real estate in Bend appears to be in flux. While prices continue to rise, with the average price per square foot for a Bend home now at $230 which is up 10% from 2016, the numbers of homes which have sold are down 13.8% from the same month in 2016 and the number of homes for sale are also down 2.8%. Inventory levels continue to be low with 2 months supply at all price points based on pended sales, but the average sold price for a Bend single family home is down 3% from the month before.

So what do these changes mean? Over the past few years we have actively compared Bend home prices with our feeder markets - the Bay Area, Seattle, Portland. And while home prices in these markets remain significantly higher than those sold in Bend, the Bend OR home prices have consistently risen roughly 10% per year since 2011....

Bend Real Estate Prices Continue Upward Trajectory

Bend residents who have lived in Central Oregon over the past decade have seen extreme changes in the real estate market. Bend single family home prices escalated during the boom years of 2005-2007 and crashed during the great recession of 2008-2011; the low point for Bend Or real estate was in the winter of 2011. Since this time, Bend housing prices have steadily climbed with roughly 10% gain each year as the market recovered. Today, the prices for Bend homes for sale are back to pre-recession levels with the average asking price for a Bend single family home at $682,000 and the average sold price at $467,000; these figures are 30.9% and 17.6% over the same quarter 2006.*

Is it Now Time to List Your Bend Oregon Home?

After the long, hard winter we experienced in Bend, Oregon this past year, some small signs of spring are at last emerging. We saw these crocuses today breaking through the soil and brightening our dormant yard with their beautiful color. These signs of spring, along with our longer days, make us realize that winter may finally be over; for sellers who were waiting for better weather prior to listing their homes  - now is the time!

According to data from Central Oregon MLS, there are less than 2 months supply of single family residential homes in Bend based on pended properties; this includes all homes at all price points. If the $1,000,000 plus properties are taken out of the data, there are under 1.8 months supply. We have buyers looking for homes, and very little for them to purchase. Don't wait for summer to list.

Bend Home Sales Continue to be Strong

It is with great interest that we reviewed Bend real estate data from January, 2017. This past January has seen some of the most snow on record for Bend, with many school days canceled, roof ice dams common and streets piled with snow which made showing property very difficult. Despite these problems, January 2017 single family residential home sales in Bend under 1 acre remained strong with 4.2% more properties in pending status in January 2017 than were during January 2016. Inventory levels were 19.1% less and 19.8% fewer properties closed, but of the properties available, more entered into contract during our difficult winter weather in 2017 than did in our more temperate weather January 2016.

Bend Oregon 2016 Lot Sales Data Show Varied Message

Custom lot sales remain steady in Bend. When lots sold in Bend during 2016 are compared with 2015, the average active asking price is up 5% to $252,000 on all lots an acre or less and the average sold price is up 11.7% to $219,000. The lack of inventory does not appear to be an issue, as there were 6.8% more lots made available for sale in 2016 than in 2015, but 9.7% fewer sold and 14% fewer were pending at the end of 2016 than at the end of 2015. *

Bend Lots Inventory

There does not appear to be a lack of available custom lots in Bend right now. Multiple Listing Service data for 2016 show there were 15.2 months of inventory based on closed sales, which is an increase of 18.7% over 2015.* What appears to be an issue, however, is affordability. Most developed lots in Bend are owned by a handful...
