Bend Oregon Housing Market Trends for September 2026The Bend housing market weakened in September 2026 as rising mortgage rates reduced buyer purchasing power and pushed more prospective purchasers to the sidelines. Although the median sales price remained nearly unchanged from last year, closed sales declined 16%, pending sales fell more than 21%, and the number of listings withdrawn, canceled or allowed to expire increased 65%.Those figures tell a more complete story than the median price alone. Bend is not experiencing a flood of inventory or distressed sales, but buyers have become considerably more cautious. Homes that are not priced correctly are receiving fewer showings, undergoing substantial price reductions or leaving the market without selling.The statistics in this report co... 10/06/2026

Most weekly market recaps — mine included, for a long time — report one sold-to-original-list number for the whole county. This week in Madison County, KY, that number was 95.7%. Fine. Unremarkable.Then I split the 37 closings by days on market:- 0–30 DOM (22 closings): 98.3% of original list- 31–60 DOM (7): 94.3%- 61+ DOM (8): 90.9% — average 8.3% off the original priceThen I pulled the 11 expirations from the same week. Median 122 days on market. Median price reduction before expiring: 1.9%. Four had zero reductions.That's the clearest listing-appointment data I've had all year. The county-wide 95.7% hides it completely. The sellers who eventually closed after a long run paid for the time — roughly 9%. The sellers who expired never paid it, and still don't have a sale.A few method not... 10/05/2026

Every month my team pulls the full dual-MLS dataset for ZIP 87505 — south-central Santa Fe — and this September's numbers expose a stale-inventory problem hiding inside an otherwise healthy market.The active-listing median days-on-market right now is 60. Read that number alone and you'd think 87505 buyers are sitting on their hands. But look at the 296 homes that actually closed over the trailing 12 months: their median time to contract was just 20 days — a third of what the active-side number suggests. That gap is the story. A chunk of the 302 current listings are overpriced and parked; the correctly-priced homes are moving in three weeks.The sold data backs it up: sellers captured a median 96.6% of their original asking price, and 98.1% of final list, across the last year. Only 13% so... 10/05/2026

North Plainfield NJ real estate market activity September 2026 shows a market that continues to reward value, but September also delivered an important warning to sellers: buyers are not treating every property equally.Some homes generated substantial competition and sold well above asking price. Others required longer marketing periods or ultimately sold below their original asking price.That combination makes September particularly useful for understanding where the North Plainfield housing market may be heading this fall. September 2026 North Plainfield Market at a GlanceI reviewed publicly available September sold-property records and listing histories for North Plainfield. I identified 12 single-family residential closings that could be verified for September, excluding condominium... 10/05/2026

Think Florida's Emerald Coast is all quiet beach towns and scenic drives? Look at the top of Highway 30A. It takes a $9.4 million asking price just to make the list of the 30 most expensive homes for sale, and the most expensive one, 57 Sea Castle Alley in Alys Beach, asks $32 million. 🏖️The Numbers Today 30 active listings, with a median asking price of $12.1M Average ask of $2,707 per square foot, and 159 days on market on average 57 Sea Castle Alley in Alys Beach tops the list at $32M, with 6 bedrooms and 5,142 sq ft What Sellers Ask vs. What Homes Sold ForHere is the split.

The Bucks County 55+ resale market has remained competitive through the first nine months of 2026, even though the number of closed sales is slightly lower than it was during the same period last year.I recently reviewed BrightMLS resale activity across 31 established 55+ communities in Bucks County, comparing January 1 through September 30, 2026 with the same period in 2025.A few numbers stood out.The median closed-sale price increased from $610,000 in 2025 to $650,000 in 2026. At the same time, the median days on market dropped from 9 days to 6 days.Closed sales were fairly steady, with 189 sales during the 2025 comparison period and 183 during 2026.Another important change was the number of homes requiring price reductions before they sold. About 25.4% of 2025 sales had a price reduc... 10/04/2026

Thinking About Selling Your New Jersey Home Privately?When homeowners prepare to sell, they usually hear one familiar strategy: put the property on the market, promote it extensively, attract qualified buyers, and generate as much interest as possible.But not every seller wants maximum public exposure.Some homeowners prefer privacy. Others may not want interior photographs distributed across real estate websites. Some want greater control over when their property is shown or how widely information about the sale is shared.That is where office exclusive listings in New Jersey may enter the conversation.An office exclusive can provide a different approach to marketing a property, subject to applicable laws, MLS requirements, brokerage policies, and the seller's informed instructions.The i... 10/04/2026

Lower Yields Do Not Always Mean Lower Mortgage RatesMany people hear that Treasury yields fell and expect mortgage rates to fall by the same amount.That is understandable. It is also incomplete.The 10-year Treasury yield is a major long-term benchmark. It reflects market views about growth, inflation, and future interest rates. Mortgage rates often move in the same direction because mortgages are also long-term loans.But a mortgage rate has another important part: the mortgage spread.The spread is the gap between the Treasury yield and the rate available to a home borrower. It can change. During stable periods, the gap may be narrower. During uncertain periods, investors may ask for more return to own mortgage-backed securities. Lenders may also price in market volatility, loan costs, a... 10/08/2026

Is Trump’s Economy Hamiltonian? A Real Estate ViewIs the current Trump economic program Hamiltonian? The fair answer is: partly.Hamiltonian economics supports a strong national economy built on public credit, stable finance, infrastructure, industry, trade strategy, and private enterprise. Hamilton wanted America to make more of what it needed and to become less dependent on stronger foreign economies.The Trump administration shares several of these goals. It supports "reshoring", domestic manufacturing, lower taxes, deregulation, energy production, and tariffs aimed at changing trade behavior. Treasury says business investment in equipment and intellectual property rose by more than 10 percent in the first quarter of 2026, and it credits full expensing, tariffs, reshoring incentives, a... 10/06/2026

Escondido Home Sales for August 2026 Escondido is an inland community in North San Diego County, about 20 miles east of the beaches, and is bordered by San Marcos, Fallbrook and Valley Center. Buyers and sellers in the Escondido housing market who are serious need to have up-to-date information about local market conditions (Read More: Real Estate Is Local…But HOW Local?) to help them to make informed buying and selling decisions about Escondido homes for sale. READ MORE:A Tour of Escondido – A Diverse Inland San Diego Community The following information was found in the MLS (private sales are not included, nor are multifamily properties, or mobile and manufactured homes).

Tallahassee is not a coastal city, and most buyers here never think about flood insurance. The FEMA map agrees with them most of the time.About 4 of every 100 homes in Leon County sit in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, based on FEMA's current flood map for Leon County. The share runs from 7.6% in 32305 to 1.8% in 32308, so even the highest ZIP code has fewer than one home in ten inside the zone.Being outside the zone is not the same as being safe. Tallahassee flood risk comes from creeks, low ground and heavy rain, and a standard homeowners policy does not cover flood. Protecting the house takes a separate flood policy or, from some insurers, a flood endorsement.Homes inside the zone carry at least a 1% chance of flooding each year. That is not a flood once a century. It is the same c... 10/09/2026
