Good Monday Morning!

The Real Estate market in the Eugene and Springfield area is changing, but intersting enough the change here is much slower than that of most of the nation.  Higher mortgage interest rates and extremely high inflation are beginning to take a toll on the national housing market and economy, but when you look at the numbers, Eugene and Springfield are changing, but not rapidly.  This is consistent with what we have seen in our area during past economic change.  Eugene and Springfield just dont seem to be subject to rapid change with housing.  With all of that, we have a brief reduction in mortgage interest rates.  This seems to have kicked our market back into high gear.  If you are a buyer, I suggest that you act now before mortgage rates once again start their trend upwards.  For sellers, the same thing, act now.  The continuation of a hot sellers market may be changing, so act now and don't wait to get your home on the market.  The following report is the sales numbers for Lane County in the month of June 2022.
