Supporters said the approach could convert underused strip malls, parking lots and office corridors into thousands of apartments without case-by-case rezonings.

Active listings jumped 32.9% year-over-year to 1,446 homes in February - nearly four times the national growth rate of 7.9%. New listings also ticked up 3.8% compared to a year ago.

One of the biggest takeaways is that from a national perspective, the largest investors account for a really small proportion of single-family home purchases and that share has decreased in recent years. So the ban is going to have less of a bite now than it would have had it been enacted a few years ago. It is attacking a trend that is already decreasing as opposed to one that is becoming increasingly part of the market.

If active listings start to rapidly increase as homes remain on the market for longer periods, it may indicate pricing softness or weakness. Conversely, a rapid decline in active listings beyond seasonality could suggest a market that is heating up. Since the national Pandemic Housing Boom fizzled out in 2022, the national power dynamic has slowly been shifting directionally from sellers to buyers.

The relatively flat trajectory for rates reflects the market's belief that the federal funds rate won't change anytime soon. Federal Reserve policymakers didn't offer any surprises last week when they ended their rate-cutting cycle by holding the policy rate at a range of 3.5% to 3.75%. And the CME Group's Fed Watch tool showed that the next rate cut isn't likely to materialize until June or July.

Interestingly, the number of newly listed properties in Portland declined by 20% compared to the previous year, hinting at a fascinating dynamic where existing homes captured the spotlight while fresh listings took a backseat.
