AREA REPORT • 5/2014 Portland Metropolitan Area, Oregon

1 Percent change in number of pending sales this year compared to last year. The Current Month section compares May 2014 with May 2013. The Year-To-Date section compares 2014 year-to-date statistics through May with 2013 year-to-date statistics through May.

2 % Change is based on a comparison of the rolling average sale price for the last 12 months (6/1/13-5/31/14) with 12 months before (6/1/12-5/31/13).3 Total Market Time is the number of days from when a property is listed to when an offer is accepted on that same property. If a property is re-listed within 31

days, Total Market Time continues to accrue; however, it does not include the time that it was off the market.
