Seller to pay full escrow fee (includes buyer escrow fee)

This week the median list price for Bend, OR 97703 is $1,599,999 with the market action index hovering around 36. This is less than last month's market action index of 38 Inventory has increased to 156

Market Action Index

This answers “How’s the Market?” by comparing rate of sales versus inventory

Slight Seller's Advantage

The market has been cooling over time and prices have recently flattened. Despite the consistent decrease in Market Action Index (MAI), we’re in a Seller’s Market (where significant demand leaves little inventory available). If the MAI begins to climb, prices will likely follow suit If the MAI drops consistently or falls into the Buyer’s zone, watch for downward pressure on prices.

Market Segments

Each segment below represents approximately 25% of the market ordered by price.

Median List Price

While the median price in this zip code hasn’t moved much in the last few weeks, we are relatively close to the market’s high-water mark. Watch for persistent downward shift in the Market Action Index into the Buyer’s zone as a leading indicator of the price strength subsiding.

Segments

In the quartile market segments, we see prices in this zip code generally settled at a plateau, although Quartile 1 is on a bit of an up trend in recent weeks. We'll need to see a persistent shift in the Market Action Index before we see prices across the board move from these levels.

Price Per Square Foot

The market plateau is seen across the price and value. The price per square foot and median list price have both been reasonably stagnant. Watch the Market Action Index for persistent changes as a leading indicator before the market moves from these levels.

Inventory has been climbing lately. Note that rising inventory alone does not signal a weakening market. Look to the Market Action Index and Days on Market trends to gauge whether buyer interest is keeping up with available supply.

Market Action Index

The market has been cooling over time and prices have recently flattened. Despite the consistent decrease in Market Action Index (MAI), we’re in a Seller’s Market (where significant demand leaves little inventory available). If the MAI begins to climb, prices will likely follow suit. If the MAI drops consistently or falls into the Buyer’s zone, watch for downward pressure on prices.

Market Action Segments

Not surprisingly, all segments in this zip code are showing high levels of demand. Watch the quartiles for changes before the whole market changes. Often one end of the market (e.g. the high-end) will weaken before the rest of the market and signal a slowdown for the whole group.

Median Days on Market (DOM)

The properties have been on the market for an average of 88 days. Half of the listings have come newly on the market in the past 49 or so days. Watch the 90-day DOM trend for signals of a changing market.

Segments

It is not uncommon for the higher priced homes in an area to take longer to sell than those in the lower quartiles.

School Goals

Sisters Elementary School has three goals that align with the school district strategic goals. Every student is:

· known and connected to adults, peers and resources to develop emotional self-regulation and a foundation of resilience.

· on a purposeful path to graduation and is taking an active role in their academic achievement, goal setting and character development.

· empowered to discover their passions and strengths through exceptional programs, community partnerships and inclusive practices.

State Goals

The Oregon Department of Education is partnering with school districts and local communities to ensure a 90% ontime, four year graduation rate by 2027. To progress toward this goal, the state will prioritize efforts to improve attendance, provide a well-rounded education, invest in implementing culturally responsive practices, and promote continuous improvement to close opportunity and achievement gaps for historically and currently underserved students.

Safe & Welcoming Environment

Our school strives to ensure all students and their parents feel welcome to our school. We have routines and procedures in place that encourage parents to be a part of the educational process for their students while still maintaining a safe and secure building. We have bilingual staff in our office and building who collaborate to support our Spanish speaking families. As a Leader in Me school (a program with the highest CASEL ratings), Socio Emotional Learning (SEL) is a priority, and we provide daily instruction and reinforcement in helping our students learn to be accepting and welcoming to all.

About Our School

BULLYING, HARASSMENT, AND SAFETY POLICIES

To ensure a safe and secure learning environment for all students, our school implements a PBIS plan aligned to Leader in Me and a safety plan. Our administration, counselor, teachers and school staff work with parents and students on a case-by-case basis to address conflict between students and to provide counseling and instruction in positive peer relationships. Our counselor and teachers provide regular, systematic Socio Emotional Learning (SEL) instruction that includes the topics of bullying and harassment. We have begun our Leader in Me journey this year, a program (with the highest CASEL rating) as a vehicle to increase our efficacy in ensuring that all of our students belong. Students who display positive choices are recognized for their efforts.

EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

It is the goal of Sisters Elementary School to develop each child to their fullest potential. To accomplish this goal we provide each student with the opportunity to explore multiple disciplines that help them discover and understand their unique interests and abilities. We partner with community organizations to provide activities within the STEAM umbrella in addition to regularly offered music, physical education, STEM, art and Socio Emotional Learning (SEL). We also regularly offer inschool club opportunities for our students to help them pursue their interests and passions.

PARENT ENGAGEMENT

We value our parents as collaborators and partners. We have an active SPTC (Sisters Parent Teacher Community) that hosts a variety of well-attended curriculum nights throughout the year to engage families with the school. Additionally they regularly sponsor service projects offering our students ways to give back to their community. Annually our students showcase their art to our community, and every student participates in grade level and school-wide musical performances.

Sister School District in conjunction with community partners also hosts Latinx Family nights, where parent voices are elevated and valued.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Sisters Elementary School is fortunate to have a community that values our schools and partners with us. We have collaborated with Sisters Folk Festival for many years and recently celebrated the successful completion of a five-year Studio to School grant; we have an art teacher, artists in residence, and expanded music offerings as a result of this partnership. We recently completed a 4-year STEM grant in conjunction with the Central Oregon Science Hub to provide enhanced STEAM opportunities at our school, resulting in State STEAM certification. We also work with the Roundhouse Foundation, The Science Club, Seed to Table, and Sisters Schools Foundation to provide enhanced educational opportunities.

“While our move to Central Oregon may have started for personal reasons, it has allowed us to do more with our business than we thought possible. It has allowed us to hire amazing employees – the available talent here in Central Oregon has proven to be of the highest caliber and chocked full of integrity. Sometimes you feel like you can get lost in a big city. In Sisters we have been able to be part of a growing and nurturing business community.” - Wyatt Woods, President and Owner, Holy Kakow

Case Study: Holy Kakow

Founded in Portland in 2009, Holy Kakow creates premium organic chocolate sauces and syrups that are used in coffee shops across the nation and globe. After running the business for nearly a decade, Founder Wyatt Woods decided a move to the City of Sisters would be beneficial for his family. The next step was to figure out how to move the successful business. After EDCO’s help with site selection, incentives, permitting, and more, Holy Kakow was able to move their operations into a new building in the Sisters Business Park. The relocation allowed them to scale for growth, even during the pandemic, expanding their employment from three to eight in the span of a couple months. Holy Kakow have their sights set on new product launches. With the backing of the community and the growing number of craft food businesses in Sisters, the company is surrounded by a strong business ecosystem to help them succeed.

“The support we’ve received from EDCO and other organizations has been tremendous and allowed us to grow and develop our network and further develop our business in a short time. Their proactive approach to assisting and encouraging entrepreneurship in this region has been paramount to some of the large strides we’ve taken this year.”

- Ryan Goodwin, Founder & Lead Designer Engineer, SherpTek

Case Study: SherpTek

SherpTek was among the first tenants to take occupancy in the redeveloped Woodgrain mill site, re-branded the “Prineville Campus,” where they design and manufacture modular truck bed systems and accessories to improve the functionality and adaptability of pickup trucks for day-to-day use and outdoor adventures.

SherpTek is an innovator in the automotive/outdoor industry. Their Founder and Lead Design Engineer, Ryan Goodwin, uses composite aerospace materials and construction methods to create a lightweight, yet super durable, precision-engineered product. SherpTek was one of Prineville’s first companies to pitch at EDCO’s Central Oregon PubTalk, an event that showcases local entrpreneurs. The company has been and continues to be supported by EDCO as well as many local and State partners in areas such as business financing, incentive utilization, internship coordination, staffing, network connections, scalability, and pitch coaching. Despite having just moved their start-up to Prineville earlier this year, SherpTek has ingrained itself into the entrepreneurial fabric of the region. They are already expanding their manufacturing facilities, hiring additional employees and training local high school students on their specialized processes.

A driving force for our economic performance is a collaborative and inclusive entrepreneurial community. This is supported via the number of new business registrations, which has outpaced far larger cities. In 2022, AdvisorSmith ranked Bend fifth for Top Midsize Cities where Americans Start the Most Businesses at 3.79 businesses started per 1,000 residents.

The region is large enough to provide resources and access to capital that help new entrepreneurs get started, while still being small enough that those resources are interconnected to support businesses as they grow. Unique to Central Oregon, given its size, are the numerous community resources and assets that are available. Assets managed by EDCO include monthly Central Oregon PubTalks, the Stable of Experts mentorship program and the largest Angel Conference in the PNW, the Bend Venture Conference.

Both Redmond and Bend made WalletHub’s Top 30 list for best cities to start a business at #16 and #17 respectively, based on an index of criteria that included business environment, access to resources and business costs. They were the only two Oregon cities to make it in the top 350 of 1,334 small cities ranked in the index.

We partner with local traded-sector companies to help them grow and expand, offering them the very same incentives and assistance as relocation projects.
