Today two of the agents in our brokerage received a thank you from a grateful seller. "Jim", the seller, brought in 12 dozen roses to express his gratitude for for the efforts of his two listing agents over an 18 month transaction, filled with many ups and downs, but today a successful closing at $3,600,000.   As the managing Principal Broker, I can honestly say that I have never seen a client show such a gesture.  We are all appreciative of the many hours of work from all parties to this challenging deal - and I can honestly say that our agents went above and beyond to make it all happen. Thank you, thank you "Jim" for your heartful appreciation. WE appreciate you.

How Does an Oregon VA Home Loan Work?An Oregon va loan works just like a Texas VA loan or va loan in any state. The Department of Veterans Affairs makes this possible and sets the guidelines for Lenders all over the United States. Often times States have additional support for Veterans and active service members. States and counties can have VA loan limits but the Veterans Affairs doesn't set va loan limits. However, Lenders like Security America Mortgage usually have a maximum loan amount. What makes an Oregon va loan unique is the beautiful state of Oregon. There are many benefits to living in Oregon for our active-duty Military service members and Veterans. Let me first remind you of the 15 general benefits of getting an Oregon va loan. Benefits of Oregon VA Home Loans Include: No mo...

Bend Home Sales Take a Downward TurnThe Bend real estate market has been on a roller coaster over the past few years. The Covid-19 pandemic triggered a massive boom in Bend single family home sales, resulting in multiple offers, dramatic price increases, and limited inventory.  However, since the peak in home prices the summer of 2022, home prices and home sales have dropped, inventory levels, days on market and interest rates have risen while new homes hitting the market are significantly down.  Many Bend homebuyers cannot find property that meets their needs. While more homes are on the market, the numbers are still not at balanced levels with less than 2 months of inventory. If we throw into the mix the shifting mortgage interest rates, we find the changes to the Bend market unpredic...

Bend Oregon Home Sales DownWe have been following the data and our transitional Bend real estate market is definitely showing downward trends in many categories.  The rapid rise in prices and demand we saw during the covid pandemic were unsustainable and now we are seeing adjustments in home sales, days on market and home prices. The shock of higher mortgage interest rates is mostly over and home buyers are back in the market. And sellers are more realistic with home prices and willing to negotiate terms.When Bend single family home sales on less than an acre are compared year over year, the following changes can be seen: Average sales price down 7.7% to $801,839* Median sales price down 12.3% to $680,000 Average list price up 5.5% to $970,512 Median list price up 4.7% to $784,950  New ...

For many years we have tracked Bend real estate trends and have consistently watched home prices rise year over year.  Since coming out of the housing recession in 2011, Bend median home prices have risen over 465% from a low of $165,210 in December, 2010 to a high of $775,000 in March of 2022. When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, the rate of Bend home price increase accelerated to over 75% in three years.  This rate of increase was unsustainable and since reaching their high last summer, Bend home prices have fallen. February 2023 was the first month which saw a year over year price reduction in Bend homes.  When  February 2023 Bend single family home sales on less than an acre are compared with those from February 2022, the following changes can be seen: Average sales price down 7% to $82...
