Active Listings - Waldport, OR (August 2026)
Active single family and condo inventory reached 80 in mid August, two more than in July. This count covers the Waldport 97394 area and reflects single family homes and condominiums, in line with the report scope.

Buyers working the entry level will find more choice in condominiums and townhomes across the wider county.

Note on price per square foot: one active listing carried an incomplete square footage record this period, which distorts any average built from it. Rather than publish a figure we cannot stand behind, we have left it out for August. The figure returns next month once the record is corrected.
July 2026 Home Sales - Waldport, Oregon
According to RPR data for July 2026, 15 single family homes and condominiums closed in Waldport. That is the busiest month of the year so far, and roughly double June. The median sold price was $590,000, up from $380,000 a month earlier. Median price per square foot among sold homes fell to $332, down about nine percent. Read those two numbers together and the story is straightforward. Buyers closed on larger homes in July. They did not pay more per square foot. Sellers collected about 92 percent of their final list price, down from roughly 96 percent in June. Total closed volume reached about $8.48 million. One footnote on sourcing: RPR restates earlier months as records settle, and its June count now reads 8 where our July report showed 7.

"Median Days in RPR" is calculated differently from MLS days on market and is not directly comparable to MLS-reported figures. RPR's measurement begins when a property first appears in RPR's database, which may predate the MLS list date.
Market Velocity - New Listings & Pending Contracts
July brought 24 new listings to the Waldport area at a $468,000 median, per RPR. New pending contracts numbered 10 at a $427,000 median. All pending contracts stood at 11, at a $425,000 median. Those pending medians sit well below June's, which ran near $599,000. What is going under contract now is cheaper than what closed in July. That gap is worth watching, because today's pending contracts become the next quarter's closings.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
For buyers: Waldport remains one of the more accessible markets on the central coast, and an 8.73 month supply gives you room to compare and negotiate. Sellers took about 92 percent of list in July, so there is real room to talk. Value still stands out next to pricier neighbors like Newport to the north.
For sellers: The sold-to-list ratio slipped about four points in a month, and pending prices are running below what closed in July. Both point the same way. Price to the market you are in now, not to the one that closed last month.
