Click Here to see the Q2 Market Trends for Bend Real Estate and Redmond Real Estate, as well as the Q2 real estate trends in Sunriver, La Pine, Sisters, Prineville, Madras, Powell Butte, and Black Butte Ranch. In Q2 2025, the Bend Oregon Real Estate market and surrounding communities experienced a change, typically seeing a significant increase in inventory year over year with more homes, more new listings, and consistently more days on market. Buyers had more choices with the increased number of homes for sale and sellers were more inclined to consider offers under asking price. The number of listings grew, days on market increased in many markets, and prices decreased slightly in the larger markets of Bend and Redmond. However, despite the increased number of homes for sale, Bend, Redmond, Sisters, Prineville and Madras reflected a seller's market, although much less strong than in earlier quarters; Black Butte Ranch, La Pine and Sunriver were in a balanced market with Powell Butte in a very strong buyer's market with 32 months of supply.

Here's something you need to know. The housing market is getting back to a healthier, more normal place. And even though it may not sound like it, this shift is actually a good thing.
It's what you should expect. It's just that our expectations have been skewed by the intense seller's market over the past few years.
But what you need to remember is: there's still plenty of opportunity to be had if you're thinking about selling – whether that's next month or next year. You just need to stay up to date on what's happening in the market, and have a strategy that matches the moment. Here's your update.
According to the latest data, the number of homes for sale is rising back toward more normal levels (see graph below):
Life can feel a bit unpredictable these days. What's happening with inflation? The economy? The housing market? But in the middle of all that uncertainty, there's one thing a lot of people still crave – a place to call their own.
Because when everything else feels up in the air, home can be the thing that grounds you. As the experts at 1000WATT put it:

But today's housing market is different. Buyers are getting more selective now that inventory has grown. Homes are sitting a little longer. And more sellers are having to cut their prices.
So, how do you still come out on top? It all starts with one thing, pricing your house right from the start. Today, that matters more than ever – and it can make or break your sale.
