When selling your house, the price you choose isn't just a number, it's a strategy. And in today's market, that strategy needs to be sharp.

The number of homes for sale is climbing. And that means buyers have more choices and can be more selective. If your price doesn't line up with what else is out there, they'll scroll right past it and go on to the next one.

More Inventory Means More Choices for Bend Home Buyers

There are more homes on the market for potential Bend home buyers to choose from than there were at the same time last year. With more inventory, there has been more motivation for sellers to negotiate price and terms with buyers.

• Median sales price up 2.6% to $711,875
