Navigating Portland, OR's September 2025 Supply and Demand

Balancing Act in Portland’s Evolving Market

September 2025 is a showcase in balance for Portland. With 1,166 new listings and 1,059 closings, supply and demand are working in tandem—keeping both buyer and seller optimism high. A steady median list price of $640,500 provides a benchmark, while buyers benefit from nearly 1,000 price reductions to fuel negotiations.

Key Stats at a Glance

  • Active listings: 1,869
  • Closed sales: 1,059
  • Price reductions: 987
  • Expireds: 237
  • Average days on market: 37

Strategic Opportunities

For buyers, homes with recent price reductions are prime targets for offers. For sellers, adjusting within the first two weeks leads to quicker sales. Open house events offer live comparison—86 active in September means plenty of doors to walk through.
