“I first met Josh about 5–6 years ago at an open house he was hosting, and we stayed in contact over the years even after my move to Florida and turning the property into a rental. From the very beginning, Josh was friendly, helpful, professional, and easy to work with. When it came time to sell, he helped me move quickly, communicated clearly and often, and kept me updated throughout the entire process. Most importantly, he helped me achieve all of my goals for the sale. I highly recommend Josh to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and professional realtor!”

Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Jefferson County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Inventory in Jefferson County has expanded notably, with active listings up more than 25 percent year over year to 197 and months of supply more than doubling to 6.5, signaling a neutral market with more options for buyers. At the same time, contract activity is holding up, as pending sales are running over 20 percent higher than a year ago even though closed sales in May were down slightly from last year.
Pricing is adjusting to this fuller selection of homes, with the typical home value around $410,000, up nearly 10 percent from a year ago but off modestly from April. Sellers are also seeing fewer bidding wars, as only about 4 percent of homes sold above list price in May and the average sale-to-list ratio has eased to about 97 percent.
Compared with Oregon overall, Jefferson County’s prices sit well below the state’s median of roughly $518,000, but local inventory is much higher relative to sales, giving buyers more leverage than in many other parts of the state. Homes are still moving, with median days on market down strongly from earlier in the year to 64 days, yet sellers often need to price carefully and allow time for showings. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate the growing choices or a seller aiming to stand out in this shifting environment, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Jefferson County agent who understands these trends.

Candice is very warm and knowledgeable, she really listened to what we were looking for and we made arrangements to travel to Bend to meet her and look at properties over a 3-day period.
