Information and statistics on the latest trends in the St. Johns real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Year over year, typical home values in St. Johns have edged down about 1.8 percent, landing below the broader Portland figure of $496,250. New listings are also down roughly 11 percent from last year, and pending sales have fallen more than 32 percent. Even with those shifts, the area still registers as a strong seller’s market with a gauge of 9.
In February 2026, the typical home value in St. Johns was about $431,900, while the median list price sat lower at roughly $394,450. Homes spent a median of 25 days on the market, matching last month’s pace but moving nearly 65 percent faster than a year ago, and about 34 percent of recent sales closed above the asking price with an average sale-to-list ratio very close to 1.0.
Recent monthly movement has been mixed, with typical home values jumping nearly 11.8 percent from the prior month while median list prices dipped about 4.9 percent. Inventory has grown to 32 homes, up just over 10 percent month over month and about 6.7 percent compared with last year, and projections point to roughly 33 homes for sale and a typical value near $454,725 in March 2026 alongside a projected median list price of about $384,225. With these crosscurrents affecting both pricing and pace, buyers and sellers in St. Johns can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands the local numbers and trends.

St. Johns offers residents a walkable, community-focused experience with riverfront parks, independent shops, welcoming eateries, and a steady rhythm of events that foster a vibrant, neighborly vibe.
St. Johns feels distinct from many Portland neighborhoods, with its small-town main street and iconic St. Johns Bridge framing views of the Willamette River and Forest Park. It attracts longtime residents and newcomers who want a self-contained community with easy access to North Portland and downtown yet a pace that feels more relaxed and rooted.
The walkable core along North Lombard and Philadelphia offers independent spots like the historic St. Johns Theater & Pub and an array of cafes, shops, and local services. Weekend routines often revolve around the St. Johns Farmers Market, neighborhood breweries, and casual dining. Outdoor time is a major draw, with Cathedral Park on the waterfront, access to the Pier Park disc golf course and trails, and quick connections to Forest Park across the bridge.
Families appreciate nearby schools such as James John Elementary and the neighborhood branch of Multnomah County Library, along with a steady calendar of local events and community-focused organizations. Housing options range from modest early 20th century homes to newer townhomes and apartments, which creates a range of price points and competition levels.
Whether you already live in St. Johns or hope to move here, the market rewards timing and preparation. Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate agent who understands this neighborhood’s dynamics and can guide both buyers and sellers from first steps through closing.
