Market Action Index
This answers “How’s the Market?” by comparing rate of sales versus inventory
Real-Time Market Profile
Price of New Listings
Slight Buyer's Advantage
The Market Action Index has been trending lower for several weeks while prices have remained relatively stable If inventory continues to grow relative to demand however, it is likely that we will see downward pressure on pricing.
Market Segments
Each segment below represents approximately 25% of the market ordered by price.
Median List Price
Prices in this zip code seem to have settled around a plateau. Look for a persistent down-shift in the Market Action Index before we see prices deviate from these levels.
$700K
$600K
$500K
$200K
Segments
In the quartile market segments, we see prices in this zip code have settled at a price plateau across the board. Prices in all four quartiles are basically mixed. Look for a persistent shift (up or down) in the Market Action Index before prices move from these current 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
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 Action Index has been trending lower for several weeks while prices have remained relatively stable. If inventory continues to grow relative to demand however, it is likely that we will see downward pressure on pricing.
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 86 days. Half of the listings have come newly on the market in the past 48 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.

Places to Go & Things to Do
DESCHUTES RIVER TRAILS SYSTEM
WELCOME TO THE DESCHUTES RIVER TRAIL!
The Deschutes River Trail portion of the Bend Urban Trails System allows nearly uninterrupted access to the beautiful waterway that is the heart of the community. The trail system is divided into fi ve “reaches,” defined by landscape characteristics.
The Bend Park and Recreation District is at work building a fully connected river trail between Tumalo State Park and Meadow Camp. Once complete, the trail system will encompass nineteen miles of trails. This map shows existing trails open to the public.
AWBREY REACH
Visitors can access the River Trail at its northernmost point at Kirkaldy Court off of Putnam Rd. This section of the trail, constructed on top of the buried Tumalo irrigation canal, consists of soft-surface and unimproved surfaces, and includes a few moderate hills. Along the middle stretch of this reach, the river drops into a deep canyon but the trail stays high on the canyon wall, offering spectacular views of the river below and the Three Sisters in the distance. A steep climb up the Archie Briggs Canyon Trail connects to Mt. Washington Dr.
RIVER RUN REACH
This section, favored by many locals, is also built over the Tumalo canal and was the first section of river trail to open in 1989. The surface is both soft-surface and unimproved, and is wide and relatively flat. The trail runs between the river and a high canyon wall, and passes through the River’s Edge golf course and adjacent neighborhoods. There are several wetlands in this reach, inhabited by songbirds, trumpeter swans, otter and beaver. Osprey frequently nest and fish here.
PIONEER REACH
This reach passes through the oldest and most established sections of Bend. The trail isn’t always right on the river, but instead follows sidewalks through neighborhoods and downtown. It passes through beautiful Drake Park on Mirror Pond and ends in McKay Park. There are several footbridges along the way offering opportunities to cross the river.
OLD MILL REACH
Once the site of two large ponderosa pine lumber mills, today the Old Mill Reach is a mix of river parks, the Shops at the Old Mill, and areas yet to be developed. Three footbridges connect trail legs on either side of the river, providing convenient walking loops. On the east side, the trails are hard surface from the Old Mill District to the Bill Healy bridge. The trail on the west side offers a mix of hard and soft surfaces. Farewell Bend Park provides two developed boat landings for paddlers using the Deschutes River water trail. The east side trail passes through Farewell Bend Park, which also provides two developed boat landings for paddlers using the Deschutes River water trail.
SOUTH CANYON REACH
This reach has trail legs on both sides of the river, connected by a new footbridge approximately 1 1/2 miles upstream of the Farewell Bend Park bridge. The river flows fast here through a beautiful canyon, cascading over rocks and logs. West side: This reach’s west-side leg is known as the Mt. Bachelor Village Trail. Here the soft surface trail is open to pedestrians, but cyclists are not allowed. An alternative cycling route connects from the Bill Healy Bridge to the Haul Road Trail along Century Drive. East side: The east-side trail at the northern end of this reach is unimproved surface, narrow and rocky in places; the southern end is on the

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.
