Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Inventory in Southwest Hills has eased but not dramatically in this rolling three-month view. Active listings are down slightly year over year, while new listings are up more than 25 percent, indicating more owners are testing the market even as total supply edges lower. At the same time, pending sales have fallen nearly 20 percent from a year ago, and homes sold have only inched up, pointing to a cooler pace of contracts.
Homes are taking longer to find buyers, with median days on market up modestly from last year and now close to two months. Even with that slower cadence, months of supply has dropped by almost a third year over year to just over six months, which is still higher than the roughly three months seen across Portland overall.
Pricing has pushed higher despite the softer contract flow. The typical home value in Southwest Hills is up nearly 19 percent year over year in this rolling period, and the median list price has also risen, though at a slower pace. Only about one in ten sales are closing above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits near 96 percent, signaling that buyers have more room to negotiate than in past years. Whether you are planning to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Southwest Hills agent who understands these shifting conditions and can guide your next move.
Southwest Hills offers residents a serene, scenic hillside living experience with lush trees, panoramic views, quick access to nature and parks, quiet streets, and a strong, welcoming sense of community.
Southwest Hills stands apart from other close‑in Portland neighborhoods with its forested ridgelines, winding streets, and sweeping city and mountain views, all within minutes of downtown. While nearby Goose Hollow and Downtown feel more urban, Southwest Hills offers a quieter, residential character that still connects easily to the city’s cultural and employment centers.
Homes here range from classic mid‑century designs to substantial custom properties perched above the skyline. Forest Park is close, and residents often frequent Council Crest Park for panoramic vistas or the wooded paths of Marquam Nature Park. Proximity to Oregon Health & Science University and major employers adds to the area’s appeal for professionals seeking a retreat that is still accessible.
Families value access to well regarded schools, including Ainsworth Elementary School and Lincoln High School, as well as nearby cultural destinations like Portland Japanese Garden and Oregon Zoo in adjacent Arlington Heights. Dining, shopping, and services in Multnomah and Hillsdale are a short drive, giving residents a variety of local options.
Because Southwest Hills has limited inventory and distinct micro‑markets by street and view corridor, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are planning upgrades before listing or weighing when to act on a new opportunity, the right local agent can help you navigate pricing, competition, and negotiation. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with professionals who understand Southwest Hills and are ready to guide your next move.
