Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Creston-Kenilworth currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market. Months of supply sits at a tight 1.3, far below Portland’s broader 3.1 months, indicating limited inventory relative to demand. Homes are also moving quickly, with a median of just 7 days on the market in the latest rolling three-month period.
Looking at prices, the typical home value over this rolling three-month window is about $519,800, up nearly 2 percent from a year ago. The median list price has climbed even faster year over year, rising more than 5 percent, which shows sellers are generally confident in pricing. At the same time, about 40 percent of homes have been selling above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 101 percent, underscoring steady buyer interest.
Activity levels have picked up compared with a year ago. Homes sold in the rolling three-month span are up more than 80 percent year over year, while new listings and pending sales have each increased by roughly 60 to 70 percent, signaling more movement on both sides of the table. Despite this, inventory remains relatively lean, and a majority of homes go off the market within two weeks. In a setting where sellers hold some advantages but buyers are still very active, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these dynamics and can help them navigate their next move.
Creston-Kenilworth offers residents a friendly, walkable, community-focused vibe with tree-lined streets, diverse eateries, parks, and convenient access to schools and transit.

Tree-lined streets, modest bungalows, and multi-generational residents create a strong sense of continuity that appeals to both first-time buyers and long-time homeowners.
At the heart of the neighborhood, Creston Park anchors daily life with sports fields, a playground, and seasonal pool, while Kenilworth Park offers walking paths and open lawns. Families value access to Grout Elementary School and nearby Cleveland High School, and the neighborhood’s grid makes walking or biking to SE Powell Boulevard or Woodstock straightforward for transit, groceries, and local dining.
Coffee and casual dining spots along SE Gladstone and SE Powell provide low-key gathering places, while larger amenities in Sellwood-Moreland and inner Southeast Portland are only a short drive or bike ride away. Nearby Trimet bus service gives commuters additional flexibility without the cost of being in denser commercial districts.
