PACIFIC NORTHWEST 2022 MARKET REPORT Q4
BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY HOMESERVICES

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

The results of our Fourth Quarter 2022 Pacific Northwest market report is the epitome of the oftenused phrase: the one constant in life is change. Following a decade long real estate market that can be described as the greatest decade in real estate, Q4 2022 delivered an end to expansion in units sold and deceleration of home price appreciation. Both were fueled by the volatility of mortgage interest rates throughout the second half of the year.

As the market began to recalibrate itself following historic growth and unsustainable conditions, current trends are not unfavorable to a buyer or seller achieving their real estate goals. Interest rates are expected to continue stabilizing throughout 2023, and the pace of home price appreciation is forecasted to be significantly less compared to the recent past.

It is critical during markets in transition to seek expert advice. If you’re thinking about buying or selling during these complex times – or wondering when the right time to enter the market might be – all it takes is a trusted advisor, like our Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Northwest Real Estate sales professionals, and the latest Northwest Knowledge™ to help you achieve your real estate goals.

BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY HOMESERVICES LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Mid-Willamette Valley

(Marion, Polk, Linn, and Benton)

Greater demand than supply resulted in stable prices for the region. Still, residential real estate moved slower than in Q4 of 2021, with homes spending more time on the market and home sales lower than year-ago figures.

DAYS ON MARKET

Average days on market increased across the region, jumping 230% from year-ago figures in Independence to an average of 66 days. At 32 days, Philomath posted the lowest average, which represented a 39% rise from the same period last year.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

Average sales price in Independence climbed 19% to $455,176. Average sales price in Dallas and Salem/Keizer also increased compared with Q4 2021. In Dallas, the average sales price ($426,337) increased 4% from yearago figures. In Salem/Keizer, the average sales price ($431,963) was also up 4% compared with Q4 2021.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

Closed units were down in every market throughout the Mid-Willamette Valley surveyed this quarter, ranging from 25% to 64% off same period prior year. Philomath recorded the sharpest decline with 32 fewer sales than Q4 2021.

Eugene, Coastal & Southern Oregon

(Lane, Tillamook, and Douglas)

In Q4, the Eugene, Coastal, and Southern Oregon markets produced mixed results, an expected outcome of a transitional marketplace coupled with the usual cooling of sales over the holiday season. The average days on market were higher, closed units declined compared with Q4 last year and prices were up for the most part, as buyer demand remained strong for residential properties throughout the region.

DAYS ON MARKET

Days on market climbed throughout the region, rising by triple-digit percentages in Sweet Home (a 186% yearover-year increase to an average of 63 days); Tillamook (a 164% year-over-year increase to an average of 66 days); and Netarts/Oceanside (a 150% year-over-year increase to an average of 55 days). Average days on market increased the least in Roseburg, where an average of 40 days represented a 33% gain from year-ago figures.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

Throughout the region, closed units were lower than the same quarter last year, though they fell the least in Garibaldi, Albany, and Netarts/Oceanside. Garibaldi (3 closed units) missed the mark by 25% compared with year-ago figures; Albany (215 closed units) declined 26% from this time last year; and Netarts/Oceanside (14 closed units) dropped 27% year-over-year.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

Average sales price declined in some cities and increased in others. For example, at $446,873, the average sales price in Albany jumped 11% from year-ago figures. Average sales price was also up 6% in Roseburg, finishing Q4 2022 at $386,473. In Eugene and Corvallis, average sales price was unchanged from the same.

Central Oregon

One plausible reason closed transactions lagged throughout Central Oregon in Q4 could be related to buyers waiting for mortgage rates and prices to fall, creating more favorable purchase conditions. Mortgage rates began to stabilize throughout the quarter but prices responded differently by community as closed sales and days on market were significantly off prior year.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

Average sales price in Bend was up 4% year-overyear to end Q4 2022 at $842,487. Average sales prices in Redmond/Terrebonne and Sunriver dropped 1% and 15%, respectively.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

Closed transactions dropped across the region, falling the most in Sunriver (53%) and the least in Redmond/Terrebonne (35%) from year-ago figures.

DAYS ON MARKET

Average days on market lengthened for all cities served in Central Oregon. Despite a year-over-year increase of 122%, average days on market in Sunriver (40 days) was the lowest for the region.

Greater Portland Metro Area

The Q4 2022 Greater Portland Metro Area market was noticeably slower – longer days on market and fewer transactions – than the prior year. However, the market continues to be inventory starved ending the year with just 2.3 months of inventory as new listings shrunk 33% compared to December 2021.

DAYS ON MARKET

Days on market unanimously increased throughout Greater Portland, with Sherwood’s average jumping the most: 136% year-over-year to end Q4 2022 at 33 days. Yamhill/Carlton posted the smallest percentage growth from last year’s figures, up just 11% to an average of 41 days this quarter.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

In the Greater Portland Metro Area, prices were up in Clackamas, Clark, and Washington Counties, while remaining flat compared with last year’s figures in Multnomah County. At $1,051,791, Lake Oswego posted the highest average price in the region, though this average sales price represented a 2% decline from year-ago figures.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

Closed units were down everywhere in the Greater Portland Metro except Sherwood, where closed units (89) increased 1% from the same time period last year.

Southwest Washington Area

(Vancouver Metro)

With record high inflation and volatile interest rates dominating industry headlines, it’s no surprise buyers paused and adopted a “wait and see approach” to engage the market, which translated into less activity and a slower market throughout the Southwest Washington region.

DAYS ON MARKET

Average days on market for Southwest Washington recorded significant gains this quarter in many cities, increasing 140% to 48 days in Ridgefield and 115% to 43 days in La Center, but remained flat in Woodland (32 days) and ticked up only 3% in Camas to an average of 32 days. Both Woodland and Camas posted the lowest average days on market for the region.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

Average sales price was up... and down. In Woodland, average sales price fell 15% from year-ago figures to $479,019. In La Center, average sales price jumped 16% compared with Q4 last year to finish this quarter at $650,647. At $813,649 Camas had the highest average sales price in the region, a 9% rise from year-ago figures.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

Closed units declined in every city surveyed for this report, falling the least in Longview/Kelso where Q4 2022 closed units (144) missed the mark by 40% compared with the same period last year.

Greater Seattle Metro Area

(King, Pierce, and Snohomish)

Typical seasonality paired with a contracting marketplace translated into less activity for the Greater Seattle Metro Area in Q4 of 2022 compared to the same time prior year. Active and pending listings dropped for the quarter but stronger numbers for the region are expected as demand continues to outweigh supply, the Federal Reserve tames inflation, and the most narrow, stable mortgage rate range since late 2021.

DAYS ON MARKET

Throughout the Greater Seattle Metro Area, days on market in Q4 increased by double and triple digits, climbing the most on a year-over-year basis in Redmond/Carnation (233% rise to an average of 40 days this quarter); Juanita/Woodinville (230% rise to an average of 33 days this quarter); and Lacey/ DuPont (211% rise at an average of 28 days this quarter). Though still higher than Q4 last year, average days on market increased the least in Central Seattle this quarter, where a 33-day average represented an 18% gain from year-ago figures.

CLOSED TRANSACTIONS

In every city surveyed for this report, closed units posted a decline from year-ago figures. Mercer Island experienced the greatest decline; closed units this quarter fell 59% from year-ago figures to end the quarter at 43 units. In Thurston County, closed units (874) missed the mark by 47% compared with this same quarter last year. At 522 units, Lynnwood/ Edmonds finished Q4 2022 with 26% fewer closed units than last year, the lowest percentage drop in the region.

AVERAGE SALES PRICE

Average sales price in the Greater Seattle Metro Area had mixed results for Q4 2022, however the majority of cities recorded year-over-year price gains. In Mercer Island, for example, average sales price for Q4 2022 jumped 19% from year-ago figures to $2,644,886, which was the highest average sales price of all cities surveyed in Greater Seattle this quarter. With an average sales price of $856,362 and a year-over-year gain of 10%, West Seattle also posted doubledigit percentage growth in Q4 2022.
