This last month over month Beacon report shows another sizable price hop, up $40k now at $785k. Many people might look at this and think that Bend has exploded and taken off again. But when you look closer, it's important to note that various factors contribute to these changes. Month-to-month fluctuations may not accurately indicate a shifting market and it's more important to focus on long-term trends. For some time now, I've mentioned that this average number can trend up quickly when higher priced homes start moving with more volume and this is exactly why we have seen this hop. To put things into perspective, back in 2019, there were only 12 sales of properties in the $1 million+ price range out of a total of 236 single family sales, making up around 5%. Last month, about 41 sales were $1Mill and higher, accounting for 24% of our sold properties. Obviously this can move the needle on our statistics. In conclusion, just know that our city does still have great inventory in most price points and there are plenty of opportunities out there for those that are motivated to get into a home! - Greg
