Kinney Aug 2025 Bend Oregon Real Estate Newsletter

Enjoy A Scenic Video Tour of Sparks Lake In Summer
Greetings From Bend,
It's the end of July and we are having a spectacular summer in Central Oregon. I hope you've had a chance to enjoy some of it.
In this month's newsletter I break down a new trend developing in our real estate market; more home inventory and softening prices. I also feature a stunning property in Bend, take a look at development news, share some of my Central Oregon landscape photos with you, provide a restaurant spotlight, and have the latest edition of GG Magazine.
I actively watch the real estate market every day and continue to see opportunities for sellers and buyers with market conditions shifting to a more balanced position. Careful analysis of any property is crucial to a successful sale or purchase and this is something I focus on to bring value to my clients. To see active listings, CLICK HERE or scroll down to search and dream a little.
Bend is on an upward trajectory and our community continues to grow and develop in vibrant and exciting ways. After 22 years, I still love this place and will continue to live, play, and work here serving clients with my experience, market knowledge, integrity, and hard work. Thanks for following along with me and please reach out if you have any thoughts, ideas, or questions about real estate and living in Bend and Central Oregon.
Mid-Year Market Report |
The Bend real estate market has seen a mix of trends in the first half of 2025. While sales volume increased, indicating continued buyer interest, the market also saw a decrease in median sales price in June, an increase in inventory, and a longer time to sell homes. This suggest a market that is shifting towards a more balanced state between buyers and sellers. Key Market Trends Median Sales Price: The median sales price in June was $692,950, a 11.8% decrease year over year. Although this statistic is often the most reported on, it is also the most variable due to the price level of homes sold each month. When more higher priced homes are sold as a percentage to the total the median price will skew higher. When comparing Jan-June 2024 and 2025 totals we see the median price increased from $740,000 to $755,000 (2.0% Increase). June 2025's notable decrease is a trend we will have to continue to watch in the coming months. Sales Volume: June saw a two-year high in sales, with 169 homes sold, up 15% from June 2024. Active Listings: Active listings climbed to 644, a 42% increase from the previous year and the second-highest number in the last 10 years. Pending Listings: There are currently 315 pending listings so buyers are still purchasing homes, just at a more discerning pace. Price Per Square Foot: The median price/sqft decreased 10.1% to $388 for the overall market. Although individual areas and neighborhoods vary greatly, all experienced a similar trend. Inventory: Home inventory has increased to over a 5-month supply, which is more than anytime in the last 7 years. This is creating a shift to a more balanced market and a better environment for buyers. Luxury Sales (homes over $1 million) cooled down in June , with only 18% of total sales being in this price range.
