Bend Oregon Real Estate | June 2024 Trends
Bend Home Prices Up as are Inventory Levels
Bend home prices are up year over year but so are inventory levels. The rate of the increase in Bend home prices has dropped, but we are still not experiencing overall reduced home prices.

Bend Oregon Real Estate | February 2024 Trends
High Mortgage Rates - High Prices Affecting Bend Home Sales
For the 4th week in a row, the thirty year mortgage interest rate has risen which has impacted real estate sales across the country. With these rates now pushing 7%, the buying power of Bend homebuyers has diminished.
