Portland Area Real Estate: 15 Most In-Demand Neighborhoods
The Portland metro real estate market is cooling, with homes lingering on the market and prices rising more slowly. But some neighborhoods are seeing homes selling more quickly than others, particularly compared with the number of listings available.
Using data from RMLS™, OregonLive compared how many homes were on the market at the beginning of July, with the number sold during the three months prior to determine the 15 most in-demand neighborhoods this summer.

Let's Take a Look at Interior Design Comebacks
In home design, history often repeats itself. Many
of the latest trends take their inspiration from the past, whether that’s borrowing from the 1950s’ pinks, the 1970s’ velvets, or the 1980s’ wave of florals. Trends we once loved reemerge and are being enjoyed with fresh eyes. Homes are
becoming design time capsules of a sort as
ideas evocative of themes and styles from the
past spring to life.
