Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Recent rolling three-month data for Southwest Salem shows some notable short-term shifts. Typical home values eased slightly month over month, while the median list price jumped, suggesting sellers are testing higher asking prices even as buyers show a bit more caution.
New listings and pending sales both declined sharply compared with the prior three-month period. Homes sold also dropped, and properties are spending less time on the market than a month earlier but more time than a year ago. Months of supply edged up in the short term, hinting at a bit more breathing room for buyers.
Looking at year-over-year trends, typical home values in Southwest Salem are up strongly, rising much faster than in the broader Salem market. Inventory has grown modestly over the past year, yet new listings and homes sold have both fallen, pointing to fewer transactions overall. The share of homes selling above list price has dipped compared with last year, and the average sale-to-list ratio has inched down, indicating slightly less aggressive bidding. Even with these shifts, the area still leans toward a seller’s market with about five months of supply, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto-recommended agent who understands how to navigate these conditions.

“It has been a pleasure to work with Josh. The service he provided was beyond our expections. We were not looking forward to going through the process but he helped us feel calmer by explaining everything as we proceeded. Thoughtful, knowledgable, dependable and always there with an answer to our questions. In a tough market for our neighborhood he sold our house in 5 days. Helped with the purchase of the new house also. We highly recommend Josh Kaplan to anyone considering selling their home.”

“Jordan with McKillion Real Estate Group was absolutely fantastic! Professional, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the Portland area real estate market. We were trying to find the ideal home for retirement and came from out of state several times to look at houses. Jordan listened to what we wanted, was patient with each and every request, and found creative solutions when we hit problems or obstacles. On top of all that, he was friendly and easy to get along with. He went above and beyond, even helping us with some issues after closing. I can't recommend him highly enough - more than 5 stars!”
