Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Marion County real estate market. *
June 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
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 (Jun 2026).
Inventory in Marion County has been building modestly, with active listings up slightly from last year and totaling 1,586 in June. At the same time, contract activity is picking up faster than new supply, as pending sales jumped more than 30% year over year while new listings slipped a bit.
Pricing is edging upward in response to this stronger demand, with the typical home value rising about 4% over the past year to roughly $464,000. List prices have been fairly stable by comparison, suggesting sellers are not pushing prices aggressively even as more homes go under contract.
Conditions lean toward sellers, reflected in 3.4 months of supply and an average sale-to-list ratio just under 100%, yet buyers still see some negotiating room compared with the broader Oregon market where prices are higher. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate shifting inventory or a seller aiming to price correctly, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands these trends.
Marion County offers residents a unique blend of small-town charm, abundant outdoor recreation, active communities and events, accessible services, and a steady, growing economy.
Marion County stretches from the state capital in Salem to fertile farmland, small towns, and forested foothills, offering a practical mix of city convenience and rural space. Commuters appreciate direct access to I‑5, reach to Portland, and local service from the Cherriots transit system that connects neighborhoods, schools, and major employers.
Everyday needs are straightforward here. Families rely on the Salem-Keizer Public Schools, while shoppers head to Keizer Station and downtown Salem boutiques. Outdoor time comes easy at Minto-Brown Island Park along the Willamette River, the trails and playgrounds at Riverfront Park, or hikes into the eastern part of the county near Silverton and the waterfalls at Silver Falls State Park.
Food and culture keep evenings full, from local produce at the Salem Saturday Market to performances at the Elsinore Theatre and exhibits at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art. Smaller communities like Woodburn and Stayton offer quieter streets with easy reach to these amenities.
Housing options run from historic homes near West Salem to new subdivisions and acreage properties. A knowledgeable local agent can help you compare school zones, commute times, and neighborhood services, reducing stress at every step. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with the right Marion County expert to guide that process.

“Working with Bradley, I know the clients are being reprented well. He's a true champion for those in entering or reshaping their real estate portfolio.”
“Arica Mitchell is amazing! Very professional, and a quick and thorough communicator. Most importantly, very knowledgeable about the local real estate market and country properties. Her insight was indispensable. Arica made our out of state home search easy and enjoyable. We found Arica through an agent referral site. Her vast experience in Real Estate and her veteran status drew our attention. She turned out to be the best agent for our home-buying adventure! From our very first meeting, it was clear that she genuinely cared about finding us the perfect home. She accommodated our traveling schedules, was incredibly communicative, answering every text and call immediately and making us feel like their only clients. Arica always had our best interests in mind and made sure we did not overlook any details in the whole process. We couldn't be happier in our new home and highly recommend Arica Mitchell to anyone looking to buy or sell!”
“Julie Ann Smith is absolutley fabulous! She is knowledgable and professional, and very experienced. She knows all the "ins and outs" of successful negotiations, and she knows how to foster and smooth escrow process. She worked really hard to make my offer and purchase successful, and kept my best interests at the center of everything. Julie Ann is also very kind and caring, and good at guiding a novice (like me) through the complicated process of selecting and buying a home. I give her my highest of all high recommendations, particularly for new-comers to home buying!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Working with Alysa over the past year was one of the best experiences we could have hoped for during what is often a stressful process. From day one, she was knowledgeable, honest, and incredibly supportive. She took the time to explain the market, answer every question, and help us make informed decisions every step of the way. She guided us through preparing, listing, and selling our home. Even when we paused during the holidays, she stayed in touch, came back with a fresh strategy, and helped us successfully achieve our goal. There are many realtors out there, but what truly sets them apart is how they treat people. Alysa advocated for us like family. She was always available, responsive, willing to travel, and never stopped working on our behalf. She also helped us find and purchase our new home, making the entire journey feel manageable and supported. Her professionalism, kindness, generosity, and dedication are exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
