Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Q2 2025).
Gates is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market. Limited inventory is part of the story, as there are only about seven active listings in this rolling three-month window.
Price trends help explain that seller-leaning balance, with the median list price over the latest three months up more than 30 percent year over year. Looking back a bit further, list prices in this period are also well above levels seen in mid-2024, when typical list prices were closer to the low $400,000s.
Activity is also picking up, as active listings have climbed sharply compared with a year ago and new listings are up more than fivefold year over year in this rolling three-month view. With this mix of rising prices and more homes coming to market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands Gates’ current dynamics and can guide them through each step.

“Selling your home can be so stressful, so much you don't know or understand about the process. Thankfully, I chose Julie Ann as my realtor! Every time I didn't understand what was going on or coming next in the process, Julie Ann explained everything in a clear, concise way. Her calm, kind demeanor always put me at ease, reassuring me it would all be okay, and it was!”
“I would highly recommend Chun. I had never used a real estate agent in the Salem/Keizer area and was looking to sell my waterfront home. I did a bit of research to narrow a list of 6 local agents who had experience and success in selling 1M+ homes. I interviewed them all and landed on choosing Chun. He was already well recommended however seeing his style, approach and professionalism lead me to list my house with him. He handled the entire process with ease and it was flawless experience. I moved out of the area before listing the house, so it was important to have someone local with all of the right connections to get the house sold. Without a doubt would hire Chun again and anyone who does I’m confident will be happy with choosing him.”
