Summer Selling, Smart Buying & New Affordable Housing Options – Real Estate Insights on Newsmakers At Noon 5/26/26

Posted on May 26, 2026

🏡 Today’s Real Estate Insights featured Amy McLeod from The McLeod Group/Keller Williams with a practical conversation about today’s housing market and what buyers and sellers need to know heading into summer.

📊 We started with the latest market stats and trends, looking at inventory, pricing, buyer behavior, and what current conditions are telling us about the direction of the local market.

🏘️ Amy also introduced listeners to the new Southhaven Cottages affordable housing project — a development aimed at creating more attainable homeownership opportunities while addressing housing supply challenges in the region. (link coming soon)

☀️ For sellers, we discussed how to win in the summer market:

  • Proper pricing
  • Presentation and curb appeal
  • Professional marketing
  • Understanding what today’s buyers actually respond to

💰 On the buyer side, the conversation focused on how to purchase a home this summer without overpaying, including:

  • Knowing when to negotiate
  • Avoiding emotional bidding decisions
  • Understanding financing and affordability
  • Looking beyond surface-level competition

A practical, solutions-focused show about navigating Oregon’s housing market with strategy instead of panic.
