I have lived here 10 years. Do NOT move here. You will regret it.

those prices are rediculus that plus 10 percent state tax i would be surprised if anyone would move there.

Salt Lake City....everyone drives 75-90mph regularly...craziest place I've ever driven in USA

Hello 😊 I’m from Austin, TX. My wife wants to relocate to be closer to family. How is the bbq scene in Bend?

Hi! Where’s the best place to see which homes are on the market? Zillow has limited options

you did not mention the estate tax.............highest in the country.

Hard decision. I’m stuck between wanting Bend to build high. But, also along with that, I also want Bend to have an actual urban sprawl.

Great job on the video Nora! Very informative market update!

The word is out. Bend is Berkeley in the trees.

Snow, Snow and more Snow, we love Snow in Bend.

When did that happen

Dropped it.

You destroying the working class people

Bend is a liberal wart on the face of central Oregon.

You spelled it wrong. Unbelievable

So a buyer paying a buyer's agent fee by adding it into the financing would be paying that bill over the life of the loan with all that interest added in, that's ridiculous. Just take the buyer's fee off the purchase price, no way I would pay a buyer's fee.

Lame video...

I love your video and think it’s very helpful for people who want to move here. I do disagree about how long winter lasts. I would definitely say it’s more like November to March. But hey, we all have different opinions!

I’m from Klamath Falls, OR and I’m now retired from the Army. Since I joined in 1983, a LOT of things have changed and shifted since I left and it’s very sad. Bend has been getting a large influx of liberals whose cost of living in large cities along I-5 have become too high for their budgets. The Oregon High Desert is no joke and a big difference to the mild winters on the other side of the Cascades (west side). There’s nearly zero humidity on the desert which is around 4000 feet in elevation so bring lots of lotion for newcomers, you’ll need it. Usually the liberals will call it quits after or during their first winter here, it’s not fun when everything is frozen and it takes 20 minutes just to clear your windows and get the car warmed up. And don’t think your cute “all wheel drive” SUV can handle driving into forests, Fremont forest is nasty and when you get stuck (and you will) be sure to have a 3 day emergency bag in your car and please don’t be wearing sweat clothes and flip flops when they finally find you a couple days later. And no, cell phones don’t work inside the forests, that’s why we own CB or multi-band radios with a good antenna. Make sure you keep Casey Ladelle’s tow service phone number on speed dial because you’ll be needing his services, you can find his videos on YT to give you an idea of how hilarious the unprepared can be. If you’re accustomed to prompt Amazon or eBay deliveries, hang that up, it’ll take a couple more days at least to get things, a lot longer during heavy snow storms. Addition; after re-reading my post I think many might take some offense to the scenarios I described. Oregon has various environmental conditions that attract many people and they rarely discuss how life is “over the mountains” on the High Desert so when the time comes to look for a new town to live in where the cost of living is lower yet still within a couple hours drive of their former city, they pack up and take the plunge. So when a more soft Oregonian sees most people on the High Desert driving larger 4x4 trucks, there’s a good reason why they own those but it won’t make sense until the first winter. Most of us own 2 different sets of tires specifically for driving in ice, snow and summer conditions. Growing up in Klamath County my dad had a Jeep 4x4 truck then a Honda civic station wagon so we could save money on gas. I constantly heard stories about friends getting into car accidents when someone didn’t have any experience driving on icy roads or during blizzard like conditions (which didn’t happen often) so it’s my hope that people take things serious because 911 won’t always be able to get to you in time due to road conditions and distance so pre-planning and preparation is critical. And yes, most of us own a firearm and we always take one when we venture into the woods because Oregon has a lot wildlife that can be unpredictable in situations. And if you move to a small town outside of Bend and lack any form of preparation for a strong winter, the locals will express their concerns in some way because they know they may be called to help you someday because it’s usually a life or death situation and they will help when needed but it also puts them at risk. Criminal activity is extremely low on the High Desert due to many factors and that’s something that attracts people to move here. I can say that the summers are like heaven most of the time and the dry air makes cold weather more to.enable compared to States like Kentucky and Illinois where the humidity is pretty high year round. As a teen I enjoyed the snow storms, especially at night. I used to take our German shepherd for a short walk at night and watching the snow fall while illuminated by the street lights was very calming and tranquil to me, along with the snow, things were very quiet. If you plan to retire in our area, you can’t go wrong. All the medical services you’re accustomed to is available in Bend or K-Falls and the demographic of the population in our area is good, honorable hardworking people. Hope this gets someone’s attention on good and bad conditions so you don’t get hurt or stranded. If you have problems with arthritis or respiratory issues, the climate is very helpful. I wish all of you my best and please enjoy life as much as you’re able, changing your environment also does great things emotionally because it gives you a fresh start.

Hello Nora! I just discovered your site! So happy to see your videos! Wonderful I will be in touch soon!

Im your 1k subscriber!

Bend sucks. It’s expensive as hell. Has the infrastructure for a town of 10,000 people, with 100,000 people trying to use it. Full of “ski bums” who work at the local venture capital firms. Give me a break.

Appreciate the insight!

What’s happening? We are a young family looking for a home owner financed. Coming in hot from South Korea… Any Owner Financed opportunities in Bend!?

We moved here about 8 years ago as well... from the Bay area where people drive like maniacs. Generally I love this beautiful place and the people here are wonderful, kind and welcoming. I find that the worst are are some of the giant trucks that bully their way around on the narrow roads certainly not all of them of course, but a few. Also those bike lanes that cross over the roads in the middle of the streets are dangerous. I have no idea who thought that up. Then there is the poor lighting at night. I hope that eventually, this will change. Glad we have lyft and uber.

these videos are great thanks!

"poverty with a view"

A massive increase in relative inventory is just another indicator of a huge market correction which would be appropriate and inevitable, pushing prices down out of the current crazy-land territory we reside in now in Central Oregon Prices have been stupid high since covid. Normal people can't even think about buying real estate presently and personally I'm glad to see the current dynamics happening finally, thank goodness.

As a person who is born and raised in Bend, please stop moving to our town.

Its July 7 and 107 degrees today. That snow is looking pretty good!

I hope it tanks completely.

Can you recommend the probate attorney you used? Can they cover Glendale, OR?

Bend suffers from jobs and careers that sustain such market values. I feel like so many states at this point are being "propped up" by capital equity flight from CA home sales and older folks selling and moving out of CA.

Im sure prices are still higher then pre pandemic.

Oregon? Liberals done messed that beautiful state up too bad. Only thing on its way up is crime, taxes and regulation

I always planned on retiring to central oregon (lived on west side of oregon my whole life) however my mom moved there and in her older years insurance became an issue. Clinics will not take straight Medicare and the advantage plans are becoming difficult at bend hospitals due to advantage denials of skilled nursing . I am healthy but for an aging adult it’s a scary place.

Getting a death certicate can be hard, especially if she deceased alone in her home and had not been seen by her regular doctor/practitioner. I having gone through this with my mother in California and I had to go through probate just to find out that I was the trustee (she had not bothered to let me or any family members know. Being a medical certifier myself (nurse practitioner), I was reached by a hospital nursing supervisor to sign a death certificate well after the due date, because I had gone off service by the time the patient passed and was requested by the funeral home to complete it. Good luck in the rest of your probate journey.

Communism destroys everything, property, life , families. Oregon is total communist.

As long as the clowns in URBAN Oregon keep voting for left-wing radicals, the prices will keep going down.

If you are thinking of selling in OR, I suggest selling now as prices will drop substantially soon as supply goes up and demand goes down.

Thanks to you Nora, I took your recommendations and purchased most of my properties in Redmond before the market in Redmond really explored - great advice! As an investor I'm delighted with your advice and expertise. Thanks Nora.
