What This Means for Buyers & Sellers in Eugene

Buyers

• Negotiability rises with time-on-market. With TMT at 55 days (and 73 in the weekly pulse), buyers can use aging-listing leverage—ask for rate buydowns or repair credits aligned to inspection findings.
• Be ready for mid-tier competition. The $400k–$500k tier captured the largest share of sales; strong pre-approval and decisive terms matter in well-priced listings within this band.

Sellers

• Price to the band. Anchor list price near recent medians ($447,100 countywide) and neighborhood comps; overpricing risks sitting through the ~8-week listing window implied by DOM and inventory.
• Presentation still wins. Professional photos, pre-list tune-ups, and a 10-day launch plan capture early demand while pendings remain steady.

Neighborhood & Price Band Insights

• Commentary: Core Eugene sub-areas such as Ferry Street Bridge, North Gilham, East/Southwest Eugene typically transact above the county median; budget-friendly options persist in West Eugene and Danebo.
