In 2024, the Sunriver and Bend real estate markets show distinct patterns in buyer appeal and market dynamics. Sunriver, with its resort-centric, vacation-oriented atmosphere, tends to have more stable pricing, attracting mostly second-home buyers and vacationers. Conversely, Bend’s market remains more active and fast-paced, driven by its city amenities and steady population of year-round residents.
Recent data from Sunriver indicates a modest dip in sales prices, averaging about 96.8% of the list price, along with a longer time on the market than in previous years. Nonetheless, it remains appealing to out-of-state buyers, particularly from cities like Portland, Seattle, and San Francisco, due to its lifestyle and recreational appeal.
