Portland & All Surrounding Suburbs: February 2013

City of Portland and All the Surrounding Suburbs Stats & Review:

The current Rolling Price Appreciation/Depreciation percent change is +5.8%, which is an 11.3% increase from -5.5% ending February 2012 .  The current year to year comparison average price change from (February 2012- February 2013) prices are up 9.0%.  With the Rolling Average Price increasing 11.3%, Average and Median Sales Price both substantially higher from last year (10.5% & 14.7%), supply levels low at 4.5 months, demand up, marketing time down to 116 days (138 days ending February 2012) I have to give it an overall market rating of Appreciating prices.  To establish trend you need to consider the very longer term such as rolling average sale price percent change from year to year but you also need to consider the immediate trend when compared to last year’s same month and in many cases even the previous few months of data.

*This is the 12 month rolling average for sales price which takes the rolling average sales price over her last twelve months (3/1/12- 2/28/13) and compares it to the rolling average sales price of the previous 12 months (3/1/11-2/29/12).  In this case the rolling average over the last twelve months is $278,600 and the rolling average of the previous 12 months was $263,300.  You take the rolling average price difference and divide it by previous 12 month rolling average and you get +5.8%.
