Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Russell real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Russell is currently leaning toward sellers, with a market gauge of 5 indicating a modest advantage for homeowners listing their properties. With only 5 homes on the market and a median list price of $489,000, buyers are working with limited options compared with the broader Portland area, which has 1,573 listings.
Prices and speed tell more of the story behind that seller tilt. The typical home value in Russell is about $483,000, slightly below Portland’s $496,250, yet values jumped 11.36% from last month while median list prices rose 4.15%, and homes now spend around 36 days on the market, down 14.29% month over month even though that’s still up sharply from a year ago.
Activity has slowed some compared with last year, as pending sales are down 26.67% and new listings are down 21.43%, even though inventory ticked up 25% month over month. Only about 18% of homes sold above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits near 0.99, suggesting buyers still have room to negotiate even in a seller-favored environment. With projected typical values rising to about $507,637 and median list prices edging toward $498,750 next month while inventory is expected to hold at 5, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these conditions.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
