ryanrealtybend “What if I buy… and home prices go down?” It’s one of the biggest hold ups some buyers have right now. And honestly, with everything in the news lately, it's easy to see where that's coming from. No one wants to make a big financial decision at the wrong time. But here’s the part buyers need to see. When you look at home prices over the last several decades, data proves prices usually go up, not down. Yes, there are a few dips in there. But they’re typically small and short-lived. So, while a few markets are seeing slight declines right now, the bigger trend is clear. Over time, home prices almost always rise. That’s why buying a home is generally considered a safe long-term investment (especially if you plan to live there for 5+ years). So, try not to get too caught up in what might happen with home prices next month or next year. Focus on the bigger picture. Want to talk through what prices are doing in our market?

ryanrealtybend Congratulations to @rebeccapetersonrealestate and her clients on closing on a great home in Broken Top. Three bedrooms, three baths, and one of those classic Broken Top lots near the golf and the trails. The buyers were patient through the search and ended up landing this one nicely under the original asking. That's how it gets done when the comps are read carefully and the timing is right. Couldn't be happier for them. #BendOregon #BrokenTop #BendRealEstate #RyanRealtyBend

ryanrealtybend Big congratulations to @rebeccapetersonrealestate and her clients on going under contract in Tillicum Village. Three bedrooms, a half-acre lot, and a really nice setup at the south end of Bend. Tillicum has been one of the better price-to-land neighborhoods we've been showing buyers lately. Glad they found this one. #BendOregon #TillicumVillage #BendRealEstate #RyanRealtyBend

ryanrealtybend Under contract in Northpointe. A three-bedroom Cascade-view home that didn't sit long once it hit the market. Big congrats to our seller, and to the buyers picking up a really nice spot in NE Bend. The $500K to $600K band of Northpointe has been moving when homes are priced honestly. This one is a good example. #BendOregon #NorthpointeBend #BendRealEstate #CascadeViews #RyanRealtyBend

ryanrealtybend Just closed on a beautiful home in Vandevert Ranch. A 2017 ranch-style build on the Little Deschutes River with walls of steel-framed windows, a stone-clad chimney, and 1.59 acres right along the water. Big congratulations to our buyers and to our sellers. The high-end of the Bend market keeps moving when the right buyer meets the right property. These are the kinds of homes you remember being in. #BendOregon #VandevertRanch #BendRealEstate #LittleDeschutes #RyanRealtyBend
