Commentary on the Portland Real Estate Market:

The Portland real estate market in Feb 2007 follows the similar trend we’ve seen in the last few months. We’re still seeing some healthy appreciation of 12.8% overall. However, here’s a cautious note: the number of new listings went up by 18.9% and closed sales declined by 7.9%. Undoubtedly, price increase is going to slow down in light of the increased inventory. Having said that, the Portland real estate is still stellar as compared to the national average at 2.9%.

Despite our cautious tone, we still estimate that the 2007 real estate market will continue to be strong for Portland. We are projecting a growth rate at around 11% throughout the year instead of the 17% of the last few years. Call us and find out more about the Portland real estate market.
