Fall is a better listing season on this coast than most sellers assume.

The people looking in September and October have usually been researching for months, they have financing lined up, and a lot of them are second home buyers who just spent a week here deciding they want to stay. Inventory also thins out after Labor Day, so your house has fewer neighbors competing for the same buyer.
Photos are the one thing worth rushing. Shoot on a clear day while the light still cooperates.

If you have been planning on spring, send me a message and I'll show you what listing this fall would look like for your house.

Forty-six years on this coast and Newport still surprises people, here's proof.

Yaquina Head Lighthouse is the tallest on the Oregon Coast. Newport is home to one of the largest commercial fishing fleets on the coast, and NOAA's Pacific fleet is homeported right here on the Bayfront. This isn't a sleepy beach town, it's a working harbor with a real economy and a real community.

That's part of why I never get tired of selling homes here.

A newer home, a serious shop, and the heart of Waldport just outside your door.

Conveniently located in downtown Waldport, near schools, the beach, and the exceptional fishing and crabbing of the Alsea Bay and the Alsea River.

Offered at $379,000.

FHA and VA financing may be available.

September is the month locals wait for on this coast.

The wind drops off, fog burns away by mid morning, and you get the warmest water of the whole year. Nye Beach empties out after Labor Day and stays quiet into October, which is when I do most of my own walking.

I show a lot of houses this month because the light does half the work for me.

If you have been waiting to see this coast at its best, come this month and tell me what you think.

Agate Beach or Yachats? If you're weighing the two, this one's for you.

Swipe through for the honest comparison: lifestyle, price range, and commute for each. One leans quiet and tucked-in, the other keeps you close to town. Neither is wrong, they're just different lives, and the right answer depends on how you actually want your days to feel.

Which one's calling your name? Drop it in the comments, and tell me a neighborhood you want covered next.

"Is this house in a tsunami zone?" I get asked this more than almost anything else.

Here's the real answer: most of Newport has some designation, but zones vary block by block, and it affects insurance, financing, and resale very differently depending on where you land. Oregon's Department of Geology maps this publicly, and I pull it for every listing I show.

This isn't something to be scared of, it's something to understand before you fall in love with a house.

Want me to check the zone on a specific address? Send it my way.

Nellyda bought a home in Lincoln City, and this is what she wrote afterward.

"I worked with Shelly Heim to purchase a home in Lincoln City. She was thoughtful, available, patient, knowledgeable and professional from start to finish. She helped me negotiate a fair price, and a seamless transaction. I can't recommend her highly enough!"

Buying on the coast comes with a long list of questions. People want to know how a house handles the salt air, which streets flood, what the drive looks like in January, whether the view is worth the premium. Working through those with someone is most of what this job actually is, and getting it right for Nellyda meant a lot to me.

Thank you, Nellyda. If you're thinking about a move to the coast, send me a message and we'll start with your questions.

Forty-six years on the Central Oregon Coast. I learned to read these tides and the surf long before I learned to read a purchase agreement.

Waldport raised me. The bridge, the Alsea River, the community who supported me through a lot of loss and a lot of love. . This is home, and it's the only market I've ever wanted to work.

I'll hand you four decades of knowing which areas flood, which views hold their value, and where you can find your very own fishmonger.

If you're thinking about buying or selling on the Central Oregon Coast, I'd welcome the conversation. Reach out anytime.

Here's what $499K actually gets you in Newport right now.

Welcome to "Shore Leave" - 225 NW Brook Street A, in the heart of historic Nye Beach. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, and public beach access, in one of the most sought-after pockets of the Oregon Coast.

Step inside, and it doesn't feel like an almost $500K home; it feels like more. Warm bamboo floors, rich pine ceilings, and skylights on every level bring in a kind of natural light that's rare at this price point. Both bedrooms are generously sized, the layout simply lives well, and yes, you'll catch a peek of the Pacific right from home.
No HOA. STR eligible. An oversized garage with tall ceilings for every board, bike, and kayak you own.

This is exactly the kind of value most buyers assume doesn't exist on the coast anymore. It does — you just have to know where to look.

Listed at $499,000. Contact Shelly Heim at Advantage Real Estate to schedule a private showing.

A couple years ago I had the pleasure of helping a wonderful family find their perfect spot on the Oregon Coast. After searching up and down the coast, they fell in love with the Central Oregon Coast, and Waldport had just the right house for them at the time.

They have built a beautiful life here, raising their two kids and pouring love and care into every corner of this home with stunning updates throughout. Now they are ready for a little more space, which means this great property is available for someone new to call home.

3 beds, 2 baths, 1,208 sq ft of move-in ready coastal living in an established Waldport neighborhood. New roof, windows, HardiePlank siding, updated kitchen and bathrooms, new appliances, LVP flooring, and a brand new deck. All completed between 2024 and 2026.

Close to schools, downtown Waldport, a medical clinic, Crestview Golf Course, and the skate park. Out of the tsunami zone!

If you have been dreaming about life on the Oregon Coast, ready for a cute starter home or a low maintenance home for retirement, this might be your sign. 🌊
