Florence Oregon Real Estate Is Still A Great Buy!

As of this posting, we currently have 318 residential listings in the Florence Oregon real estate market with a median asking price of $199,000 and an average of 369 average DOM (days on market).

In the last 12 months we have sold 312 homes at a median sale price of $156,500 and 288 average CDOM (cumulative days on market).

I the last 6 months we have sold 143 (down form 171) homes at a median sale price of $160,000 and 285 average CDOM and 165 median CDOM

In the last 30 days we have sold 21 homes at a median sale price of $170,000 and 199 CDOM.  A 30 day snapshot in small market is not a reliable indicator of the future.

All in all, the inventory has not changed much in the last 2 months.  One year running average list prices are down $10,000. On the other hand, a six month running average of median sales price are up $5,000 while the number of sales is down.

Other parts of the State definitely are showing increased sales and prices. Florence normally lags behind other areas in Oregon by about a year.   I still believe that those that buy a home now will not regret it a few years from now. NOW is the time to buy as the rainy season is still here and many sellers are tired of postponing their dreams.
