Portland real estate values still retreating

Case Shiller released their most current index numbers today. We like this index because it reflects the value change of actual homes. CS compares a home's recent sales price to the it's previous purchase price. Based on this information, the Portland area logged an annual decline of 8.6% over the past one year period and a 6.6 % decline over a two year period.

Real Estate values in Portland are now equivalent to March 2006 levels.




Nationally, Case Shiller reports a 17.5% drop over one year. If you are really into these types of numbers, you might like to peruse the Case Shiller web page located here.
