REDMOND OR REAL ESTATE MARKET UPDATE | MAY 22, 2026
Redmond Oregon Housing Market Snapshot: What the Numbers Say This Week
The median list price in Redmond, OR 97756 ticked up to $605,000 this week, which is the first movement we've seen in a while. Inventory climbed to 242 active listings, up from 231 last week, and the Market Action Index is holding at 32, unchanged from last month. We're still in slight seller's advantage territory but the market is telling us to pay attention.
Here's what stood out to me this week:
Median days on market moved to 49, up from 42 last week. That's a meaningful shift. Average days on market is sitting at 91, so that gap between median and average is still wide. The story hasn't changed: well-priced homes move, everything else waits. 40% of active listings have had a price reduction, the highest we've seen in several weeks. New listings are coming in at a median of $598,000, just below the overall median, which tells me sellers are being thoughtful at entry. Price per square foot held at $334.
The takeaway: inventory is growing, days on market are creeping up, and four out of ten active listings have already had to reduce. If you're thinking about selling this summer, the window for getting it right the first time is not getting wider. Let's talk before you list, not after.

OPEN HOUSES THIS SUNDAY, MAY 24
Two Great Properties, One Great Sunday
I'm hosting two open houses this Sunday and I would love to see you at either one. Whether you're actively looking, curious about the market, or just want to say hi, come find me.
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Eagle Crest, Redmond
11058 Desert Sky Loop, Redmond OR 97756 Listed at $575,000
This is a bright, open-concept two-story bungalow in Eagle Crest with the kind of mountain views that stop you in your tracks. Vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, hardwood floors, granite counters, a hot tub, and a loft upstairs that feels like a bonus room with a view. One bedroom suite on the main floor, a guest en-suite upstairs, and a detached garage. Short term rentals are allowed, which gives this one some nice flexibility whether you're looking for a full-time home, a getaway, or an investment property.
The HOA covers landscaping, irrigation maintenance, exterior painting, snow removal, and access to three gyms, pickleball courts, pools, and guest passes. It's a really turnkey way to live in Central Oregon.
I'm hosting this one for Haley Overton with Real Broker. Stop by and take a look; especially if you’re visiting Eagle Crest and want a place of your own.
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Sisters, Oregon
14850 Stagecoach, Sisters OR 97759 Listed at $885,000
After the Eagle Crest open house wraps up I'll be heading to Sisters to co-host with Duane Myers. This one is a single-level, move-in ready ranch-style home on 0.66 acres in the Tollgate neighborhood. Three bedrooms, three full baths, vaulted ceilings, skylights, a wood-burning fireplace in the family room, a dedicated office, and a covered deck overlooking a large fully fenced backyard. All appliances stay.
The Tollgate HOA includes access to pickleball courts, a pool, tennis courts, trails, and sport courts, and short term rentals are allowed here too. Sisters is a special little town and this is the kind of home that doesn't come along every day out there.
Come see both if you can. It's a great way to spend a Sunday morning in Central Oregon.
WHAT'S HAPPENING AROUND REDMOND: MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND & BEYOND
Your Redmond Oregon Community Events Guide: May 22, 2026
Memorial Day Flags on 6th Street (Downtown Redmond)
One of my favorite things about living in Redmond is how this town shows up on Memorial Day. Over 1,600 American flags will line the streets on Monday and it genuinely never gets old. It's a small thing that says a lot about this community.
General Duffy's Summer Market: First One of the Season
General Duffy's Waterhole at 404 SW Forest Ave is launching their very first Summer Market this season and it sounds like a great time. Local vendors, live music starting at 6pm, and it's completely free. Grab your people and head downtown. This is their first year doing it so I'm excited to see how it grows.
Music on the Greens is Back
The Redmond Chamber of Commerce is bringing back Music on the Greens at American Legion Park, every other week this summer. Live music, kids running around, food vendors, craft vendors... it's one of those events that just feels like summer in a small town. Juju Eyeball, Bend's Beatles band, kicks off the series Wednesday, June 24 6:00-7:30. Keep an eye on the schedule and plan to be there and if you do, come say hi.
Blacksmith and General Duffy's Concerts
Both venues have live music happening this weekend. Worth checking their Facebook pages for the specific lineups and times if you want to make a night of it.
FROM MY WEEK
Getting Busier, in the Best Way
The spring market is picking up and I'm feeling it in a good way. I've been researching properties across all three Central Oregon counties: Jefferson, Deschutes, and Crook. Each one has its own personality and its own quirks and I'm genuinely enjoying learning all of it.
One of the things I'm most grateful for right now is the brokers I've been able to partner with here. These are people who didn't just move to Central Oregon, they grew up here. They've worked this market for decades and they've been incredibly generous with their knowledge. For someone like me who is not new to real estate but is newer to this specific market, that kind of resource is invaluable. I feel like I'm learning the right way.
Concession Stand Tomorrow
I'll be working the concession stand tomorrow, Saturday, at Umatilla Sports Complex for a big tournament. If you're out there watching games, come say hi. I'll be the one covered in nacho sauce and having a great time.
Cub Scouts Gearing Up for Summer Camp
Troop 27 is meeting next week to go over summer camp details and get everyone excited for what's ahead. If you've got a scout or a kid who's been curious about joining, now is a great time to reach out.
SISTERHOOD OF REDMOND, OR
Book Club: Lone Wolf by Jodi Picoult
Our June book club pick is Lone Wolf by Jodi Picoult, suggested by our own Barb L. It's a story about a fractured family navigating a legal battle after a tragic accident: family loyalty, moral dilemmas, and the complicated nature of forgiveness. Classic Picoult and I'm already looking forward to the discussion. Location is TBD but we meet the first Thursday of the month. If you'd like to host or know of a good spot, reach out. All are welcome, even if you haven't finished the book.
Pickleball continues Friday mornings at 9am. Come find us.
Hope your Memorial Day weekend is everything you want it to be. We'll be out there with family, probably fishing and hiking and laughing too loud. See you on the other side.
Talk soon,
Diana Pullen
