What Is Up With Bend Luxury Homes?
Bend High End Home Sales Reflect a Changing Market
It has been awhile since we last reported on Bend luxury home sales. We pulled a report showing year to date activity over the past three years. While Bend home prices in general are back to a small upward trajectory year over year, the numbers of sales are significantly down, as they are in all price points in most of the markets in Central Oregon and across the country. Higher interest rates have changed the buying power of would-be home purchasers, even in the high end, and have also kept many would-be sellers off market.

Bend Oregon Real Estate | May 2023 Trends
Bend Single Family Home Sales Figures Remain Mixed
The May 2023 Bend real estate sales have been published and reflect a market in transition. Inventory levels are growing, but a strong seller's market remains. High mortgage interest rates continue to impact buyer's purchasing power and while average home prices are down slightly, they are not at a level that would significantly affect most Bend home buyers. As we enter our summer peak selling season, the question on how mortgage rates and inventory levels will reflect in 2023 home sales will be answered.
When May 2023 Bend single family home sales on less than an acre are compared with those from May of 2022, the following changes can be noted:
- Average sales price down 3.1% to $861,432
- Median sales price up .8% to $746,250
- New listings down 26.7% to 222
- Homes for sale down 21.1% to 265
- Pending sales down 21.8% to 172
