Keizer Oregon has been one of the more stable real estate markets in our Salem metro area, relatively speaking mind you. I had talked before about how Keizer home prices had kind of flattened out, vs. the slow corrections that occurred in the Salem market, and then just kind of plunged early in 2009. So…

I’m trying to come up with a pithy title for my monthly real estate reports and realize I have very little creativity in the literature department…I feel bad for my AP English teacher in high school…I appear to have fallen off the creativity wagon a bit… While I try and come up with something catchy,…
