Bend Oregon Real Estate | November 2025 Trends
Buyer Activity Picks Up as New Listings Fall Sharply
November brought a shift in the Bend real estate market: strong buyer interest paired with a significant drop in new listings. Pending sales saw a sizable jump from one year ago, even though closed sales held flat and overall pricing trended slightly lower. With fewer homes hitting the market, buyers had to act quickly on the most desirable properties, while sellers benefited from motivated purchasers—even if final sale prices continued to come in below original asking.

December 2025 Bend, Oregon Real Estate Market Update
Who Hit the Pause Button?
Winter has arrived in Bend, and with it, the market slowdown we expect every year. The difference this December is subtle but important: the pace has eased, yet the underlying fundamentals remain surprisingly resilient. Whether you're gearing up to buy in early 2026 or preparing your home for a spring listing, here's what you need to know about the latest market trends.
New Listings: A Seasonal Retreat
New listings slid again this month — roughly 20% fewer year-over-year. Not surprising for December.
Bend homeowners tend to wait out the holiday season, choosing to list once we hit clearer skies, longer days, and stronger buyer activity. Sellers are preparing for the traditional early-year surge, and many are waiting for the right moment to re-enter the market.
How long will they wait?
Typically just a few more weeks. January and February bring a substantial inventory rebound.

Should You Sell Before the Holidays or Wait Until Next Year?
As the holidays approach, many Bend homeowners find themselves asking the same question: Should I list my home now or wait until after the New Year?
The truth is, there's no one-size-fits-all answer—but there are compelling reasons to consider making your move before the year ends.
Why Selling Before the Holidays Can Work in Your Favor
- Motivated Buyers Are Still Looking
Not everyone slows down for the season. Many buyers in Bend are relocating for work, making year-end moves to take advantage of tax benefits, or finally finding time to focus on their home search during the holidays. These buyers are serious—and they're often ready to make strong offers. - Less Competition Means More Attention
