🏡 Eugene Market Update: What's actually happening in our local housing market right now?🏡

🧐 If you’ve been watching the Eugene-Springfield area, you know things have shifted from the frenzied pace of previous years

🍦Here’s the real scoop as we move through the summer 2026:

📈 Home Prices: The median home price in Eugene is holding steady right around the $500,000 mark, seeing modest year-over-year growth

🔑 Inventory is Up: We are seeing more homes hit the market, which gives buyers a lot more breathing room and options to choose from

⏱️ Slightly Longer Days on Market: Homes that are priced competitively and presented beautifully are still selling fast (often under a month). However, homes that need major TLC or are priced too high are sitting a bit longer

💡 Bottom Line: Buyers have more leverage and negotiation power than they’ve had in years. For sellers, pricing strategy and curb appeal have never been more important

🤔Whether you’re curious about your home's current value, thinking about making a move, or wondering how interest rates are affecting your purchasing power, I’m here to help you navigate it all
