A major shift is about to hit the Southern Oregon housing market, and it could mean big opportunities—or big losses—depending on how you play it. Right now, low supply and high demand are driving home prices up, and with mortgage rates expected to drop in 2025, demand is only going to skyrocket further. More buyers, limited inventory, and increased migration to Southern Oregon could lead to a perfect storm of price hikes. If you’re a homeowner or investor, this could be the best time to buy before prices soar. However, waiting too long could cost you tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
