Monthly PDX housing report

The recently released Case Shiller index for September showed continued improvement for the Portland Area. Our latest numbers show an increase of 3.67% for the last twelve months. However, it's important to note that our housing problems were deep and that we still show a two-year drop of 2.22% and a 24.35% drop since our July 2007 peak.

Because of continued low interest rates and a shortage of inventory, most now believe that improvement in the housing industry can be sustained.

Looking north to Vancouver, BC

Portland developers go far and wide to get ideas for condo architecture. In Vancouver, BC there are many buildings with lots of design ideas. Here is one we saw this along the waterfront this past weekend on our Thanksgiving visit.

Portland's South Waterfront has many interesting buildings. There is The Meriwether, The John Ross, and Atwater Place. There are also several apartment buildings and The Mirabella retirement center.
