Market Cooling? Not Quite.

Image
Oregon's real estate market exhibited a mixed landscape in August. While new listings decreased month-over-month, overall inventory remains high and buyer interest continues to climb. Prices showed slight declines from July but edged higher compared to last year, underscoring the market’s enduring strength.
