Bend Premier Real Estate is pleased to welcome back Maggie Wodehouse to the brokerage. Maggie Wodehouse was fortunate enough to be born and raised in Bend, Oregon. As a native to the area, she has a deep understanding and love for Central Oregon. She comes from a family of local entrepreneurs and felt that Bend was the perfect place to launch her real estate business. Licensed now for several years, Maggie has the expertise and experience to guide her clients through each step of the real estate process, both as buyers and sellers.
"I am excited to return to Bend Premier and look forward to working with the wonderful staff to build my business and connecting again with a great group of Brokers."
We are happy to have you back with us! Welcome back.
Central Oregon is now in the fall season and typically during fall, Bend real estate sales drop. However, Bend single family home sales in October 2020 were anything but typical with sales breaking historic records. Speed forward to October 2021. While lack of inventory is still impacting prices, compared with the frantic fall sales of 2020, home sales in October 2021 seem more measured with offers often undergoing counter offers and negotiations on home repairs back with most transactions. This is a win for Bend homebuyers and for sellers, a strong sellers' market makes it a great time to list.
When October 2021 is compared with October 2020 for Bend single family homes on less than an acre, the following changes can be seen:
As can be noted, home sales are down, new listings are down, inventory levels are down and prices are up. There is still a significant demand for Bend single family homes which continues to drive home prices.
Despite cooling temperatures as we move toward late fall, Bend home sales are still strong - and we anticipate they will remain this way through the remainder of 2021. Mortgage interest rates are predicted to rise in 2022, but as long as rates stay relatively low, homebuyers are purchasing. We predict more of the same through the rest of 2021.
