Each month, we provide Portland Monthly Suburb Reports highlighting local real estate conditions for those interested in buying or selling. This month, we are turning our attention to Beaverton.
Located just 8 miles west of downtown Portland, the city of Beaverton is home to major employers such as Nike, IBM, Reser’s Fine Foods, and Tektronix, making it a prime area for employment. It also offers a wealth of outdoor activities, including green spaces, trails, parks, and wine tasting at local vineyards like Cooper Mountain and Hamacher Wines, all in close proximity to Portland. Residents and visitors are also drawn to the Beaverton Farmers Market. Held from February through November, it showcases local fresh produce, baked goods, and handmade items, adding to the area’s vibrant community feel.
Though lately some of the major employers in and near Beaverton, Oregon have been struggling (Intel and Nike) and not hiring in the numbers they used to in the past. Here is a closer look at the current real estate trends in Beaverton.
Beaverton, Oregon Housing Inventory is Dropping From a High Point
Beaverton has a consistent downward inventory trend from fall to spring and then a responsive rise from spring to fall. Fidelity National Title shows that, as of January 2025, Beaverton’s housing inventory stands at 185 active listings, reflecting a typical decrease from previous months but also higher than the last five years. This is partly due to higher-than-typical inventory throughout the Portland area since the fall of 2024, but especially in Beaverton. All factors combined make this time of year a benefit for home buyers.

Lower interest rates can influence results, but it is uncertain if and when they will drop.
Beaverton, Oregon Real Estate Prices Are Relatively Stable, Declining Slowly
As of January 2025, Beaverton’s median price per square foot is $306, with the median list price for homes reaching $689,000. As usual, these totals are lower than for the city of Portland, which is currently at $321 per square foot and a median home price of $650,000.

Notably, Beaverton’s price per square foot is lower than in the last two years, while the Portland Metro as a whole has increased slightly. Again, the culprit is likely the spike in Beaverton’s inventory.
Beaverton, Oregon Average Days on the Market Reflect Seasonal Shifts
As of January 2025, Beaverton’s average days on the market stand at 112 days, with a median of 84 days. Like other numbers we see, this data follows a seasonal pattern as well as shifts.
As is typically the case throughout Portland, we see an increase in days in the market for Beaverton beginning in late summer and early fall, continuing until early spring the next year. Then, we see a dip down to late summer and fall. These rises and dips follow times when buyers are most active.
This year, we again see the trend of a continuing rise in market times, even following a tighter timeframe of recent spikes. We expect to maintain the seasonal trend, but a difference lies in the number of days. We are seeing higher 90-day averages than in the last four years and an increase in selling times across the last three years.

The situation will improve as spring nears, but with inventory still higher than usual, longer averages are understandable.

Beaverton, Oregon 2025 Real Estate Forecast
In summary, Beaverton’s inventory is up, its per-square-foot pricing is stable or lowering, and days on the market are up, all of which point to inventory being the major factor in home sales thus far in 2025. As the busy spring buying season nears, we can expect larger seasonal patterns to hold, but if inventory stays high, we can also see a duplication of what we’re seeing now, with stable or lower square foot prices and increased days on the market.
This is good news for buyers. They will have an opportunity to choose from higher inventory and buy at a lower price. Long selling times also mean more room to negotiate. This means buyers get more value for their dollar in an area close to Portland, along with desirable amenities and job opportunities.
For sellers, this year is a time to monitor the market closely, stay vigilant, and prepare for competitive pricing to attract buyers and reduce selling times.
Due to pent-up demand and given the potential of lower interest rates this year, and given the historically strong real estate market in Beaverton, we expect this to be a small rebound year for the suburb with Beaverton housing prices up 1%-3% by the end of 2025.
