Election Year Worries? Here’s the Real Market Impact

October 4, 2024

With an election year approaching, some may worry about its impact on the housing market. While policy changes and interest rates are often discussed, historical data shows stability in home prices.

In fact, after 7 of the last 8 presidential elections, home prices increased. This trend suggests that election years do not lead to a downturn in the housing market. Instead, the market remains steady, and often, home values continue to rise.

So, if you’re considering buying or selling, there’s no need to let election year worries hold you back. The best time to make your move is when it works for you and your unique situation.

Who needs a five year plan when you could have a home like this? 👇 I can’t get enough of this single family home in the desirable Bethany neighborhood in Portland. Think natural light, quality craftsmanship, open layout, dream kitchen and backyard views on the deck. Every detail makes it the kind of space that just feels right. If this one’s calling your name, comment or DM me.

I’ve talked clients out of buying or selling before…and I’d do it again. Because a home should move you toward your goals, not away from them. Before making a move, let’s look at the big picture: your priorities, the market, and what truly makes sense long-term.

When people move to Lake Oswego, they often think it’s all about the beautiful homes, top schools, and proximity to Portland. But what makes people stay? Morning walks by the lake.
Cafe’s where they know your name.
A downtown that still feels small-town.
Easy access to trails, parks, and water.
Neighbors who look out for each other.
Weekends that unfold without a plan.
That perfect balance of calm and convenience.
A community that feels connected, grounded, and proud to call this place home. If you’re thinking about calling Lake Oswego home, this is what it’s really like to live here... not just visit. Comment “GUIDE” below and I’ll send you my Lake Oswego City Guide with all my local favorites ↓ 👋 I’m Heather @robbinsrealtygroup — your Lake Oswego real estate agent sharing what makes this city one of the best places to live in Oregon.
