Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Foster-Powell real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Year-over-year, Foster-Powell home values have edged up, rising about 2.8 percent to a typical value of $455,000. That contrasts with the broader Portland city trend, where typical values are down about 0.8 percent to $496,250. New listings and pending sales have both fallen sharply compared with last year, with new listings down about 43.8 percent and pending sales down about 48.6 percent, signaling fewer homes turning over.
In February 2026, the median list price in Foster-Powell reached $449,450, sitting just under the typical home value. Homes spent a median of 80 days on the market, which is up strongly from both last month and last year, even as the area is labeled a seller's market with a market gauge of 8.
Inventory increased to 14 homes, a month-over-month gain of 16.7 percent, while 18 new listings and 18 pending sales point to a relatively small but active local pool. Roughly 31.6 percent of recent sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio was close to parity at about 0.991, suggesting pricing is tight. Looking ahead to March 2026, typical values are projected to hold near $455,025, with median list prices around $449,225 and inventory inching up to 15 homes. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifts can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local agent who understands Foster-Powell’s dynamics.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Foster-Powell offers residents a vibrant, walkable community with diverse dining, ample green spaces, and easy access to transit, all anchored by a strong sense of local pride.
Foster-Powell in Portland stands out from nearby areas like Richmond and Creston-Kenilworth with its strong everyday community feel and approachable housing stock. Classic Portland bungalows, modest craftsman homes, and newer infill construction attract first-time buyers as well as long-time residents looking to stay close in without the higher prices of Hosford-Abernethy or Brooklyn.
Life here centers on Foster Road and Powell Boulevard, where independent businesses make it easy to stay local. Residents frequent spots like Portland Mercado for Latin American food and events, and gather in Essex Park and Kern Park for playgrounds, sports, and open green space. Access to the Foster Transportation and Streetscape Project improvements has made walking, biking, and transit connections to downtown and Lents more comfortable and predictable.
Families appreciate proximity to neighborhood schools under Portland Public Schools and easy trips to larger amenities throughout Portland. The market here can move quickly, especially for well-priced homes with updates or ADU potential, while sellers must watch buyer expectations on condition and layout.
Whether you are weighing a move into Foster-Powell or planning a strategic sale, timing, preparation, and local knowledge are crucial. Agent Pronto can connect you with a real estate agent who understands this community and can guide both buyers and sellers with confidence.
