Lane county Oregon home prices continue to rise. Foreclosures still on ice..

With a small foreclosure shadow inventory, and Real Estate brokers unqualified to negotiate short sales stalling them Real Estate values are rising. Oregon banks will start to release the approximately 2600 in current shadow foreclosures next week. Spread evenly across the state by population it is not going to stop the 2013 rise. I expect loan modification failures along with failed short sales to create another shadow inventory that will affect the market sometime in late 2014 to early 2015. I forecast a normal rise and fall in values will take place inside 2017-2029, Remember. 2002-2012 inflated and crashed on an extreme scale due to bad loan underwriting. The profits nor losses will not compare to the recent bubble melt down. All markets adjust! Buy on the down turns & sell on the way up. Nobody can accuratly predict an exact bottom or top. If you found it you already missed it. I call it investing on hill sides. If you are still in the buyers market you missed the bottom by 5%.

For February 2016, the distressed sales share declined by 2.9 percentage points over-the-year (and 0.4 percentage points over-the month) down to 11 percent, according to  data released by CoreLogic  on Thursday. At their peak in January 2009, distressed sales accounted for nearly one-third of all residential home sales (32.4 percent) but has been declining steadily since then. By comparison, the pre-crisis share of distressed sales was typically around 2 percent; CoreLogic estimates that if the current rate of year-over-year decline continues, the distressed sales share will reach the “normal” pre-crisis level in slightly more than two years. “Prior to the housing crash, the distressed share of total...
