Central Or Single Family Home Sales Trend Up

Despite the snowy winter of 2016-2017 and the unprecedented wildfires experienced during the summer, Central Oregon real estate sales remain strong. Although the trends seem unsustainable, the roughly 10% increase in sales price year after year since 2011 have continued in the single family home market in Bend, Redmond, and Sunriver.  Only Sisters shows a reduction in the average October sales price from a year before, perhaps a reflection of this summer's Milli fire which was located just outside of the Sisters city limits.

Bend Real Estate Sales Results Remain Mixed

Moving into fall, Bend real estate sales typically trend downward as the weather cools, school starts and tourism drops during the shoulder season between summer and winter.
