Portland Housing Inventory Hits All Time Low

By Robin Hakeman, January 8, 2021

Portland Housing Inventory Has Hit An All Time Low.

As I write this today, there are less than 500 single family homes available for sale in the City of Portland. The surrounding areas are facing a similar situation. In fact, the suburbs are seeing a significant increase in home sales  as buyers move out of the city in record numbers.

The Oregonian recently did a deeper dive into what is driving the current market. A  few agents from Living Room were asked to weigh in. You can read the full article here & see what they have to say.

If you are thinking of selling this year, this could be a great time. Contact me today to find out how to sell safely & effectively. Is your main concern with selling, “Where will I go?” I can help with that too. With mortgage rates also at a historic low, you’ll be surprised at your increased buying power.

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE ♥
One of the things I love most about my work in real estate is that it never feels like "work" to me. I love it. I love guiding my clients through the process & celebrating all of the wins along the way. Are you a first time buyer who needs the 101 on all things real estate? We'll sit down and go through it all. Or are you a seasoned-pro looking for top notch service & strategy? We will work closely to put together a plan that ensures your home stands out above the competition. I am passionate about understanding the needs of each client and will be your advocate every step of the way. I truly value the relationship that we will create and my goal is to make this a fun & successful experience for everyone.  Why real estate? My background as a Merchandise Manager for top retail brands prepared me well. I am that rare combination of business smarts meets creativity and this works well for real estate. I have the analytical background necessary to help both buyers and sellers with numbers and negotiation, as well as the creative vision to help clients prepare their homes for sale. As a native Oregonian, I have a deep understanding of all things Portland & beyond. I spent my childhood living in Tigard and when I was old enough, I realized a dream of living on NW 23rd Ave. The first home I owned was in NE Portland and now I live back in the burbs! When I'm not at the office or out with clients you can find me playing tennis, taking a barre3 class, enjoying family time, volunteering at a school and enjoying local theater arts.
