In all but the $3 million-and-up price tranche, inventory is falling behind last year's pace. Fewer listings are keeping prices firm, while demand is steady. Still, the year-over-year changes are incremental, and the overall market remains stable. However, with expectations several months ago that mortgage rates would be below 6%, the conditions today are not as favorable as many had hoped. Peak season is still in the future, but the market is sending clear signals of a more tempered year ahead.

Central Oregon Farm Listings
The luxury housing market is steady, but calm, with subdued activity, interspersed with some quick sales. Most buyers in the over $1 million segment are knowledgeable and ready to move when the right home comes along. There is an interesting mix of attractive new listings, stagnant properties, and price drops as sellers try to position themselves correctly for the summer season. Staying current with the market is imperative for would-be buyers and sellers, as proper pricing is more important than ever.
