Keizer has always had a tight market since they need the urban growth boundary to expand in order to build more homes. They were the first local market to stabilize in the real estate crash because of the good schools and easy jump-off point for split commuters to Portland and Salem. The following data is…
It’s that time of year. Mid-January gives agents a chance to get all of their sold data into our local MLS so we can run some data and see where the year ended. The 4th quarter in real estate in most of the Salem metro cities was brisk, well in comparison to recent years anyway.…
Home prices have continued to decline in Keizer, just like Salem. The question is whether or not I was accurate in my predictions from last year. I have an ego to maintain, you know. Last year I predicted a 5% decline in home prices and a flat line in home sales. So how did I…
August saw a bit of a jump up in home prices from last August. I certainly wouldn’t say that home prices are appreciating in Keizer but last year was the end of the tax credit and July and August were dismal months in real estate. Home prices really couldn’t get worse than after the tax…
While that lowly 79 homes sold in the 2nd quarter in Keizer Oregon might look a bit lame compared to last year, last year was an off year because of the tax credit. Overall, better than 2009 so that’s good. Keizer currently has an 8.65 month inventory of homes. So if no one else…
I stated a couple of weeks ago that Salem had the best first quarter, in terms of real estate home sales, in the past three years. Not the highest home prices mind you, but that sales picked up. This isn’t true for the Keizer real estate market. Home sales are incredibly sluggish there right now.…
Like the Salem real estate market, the Keizer market saw a minor uptick in sales. 1 over last year. That counts as an uptick, right? Statistically the numbers are so low you can’t really say anything with accuracy other than the market is still insanely slow. That much, I can say for sure. Of concern…
The talk around the real estate water cooler is pretty basic…”so what year are you at?” Some cities are at 2001-2002 pricing, thankfully Keizer Oregon is not. Real estate in Keizer took a header off the diving board in 2009 landing in a nice belly flop in 2010. The chart is pretty clear that the…
The Keizer Oregon real estate market Keizer had been one of the best markets here locally…best, being a subjective term mind you. The inventory in Keizer which had been pretty consistently in the 6-9 month range for past of the past couple of years started to spike this year and that spike has continued. As…
Well I shared my simply smashing words of wisdom regarding the Salem real estate market with you all, so it’s time to talk Keizer. Keizer stunk too. My writing talent astonishes me sometimes. Seriously, how do I come up with such in-depth analyses, you ask? I know I’d be forced to ask the same question…
