Yachats, Oregon - Real Estate
Market Overview

Yachats is a small market, and August 2026 shows it plainly. Thirty-one homes were available in ZIP 97498 as of August 25, counting single-family homes and condos a buyer can still write an offer on. Eight more are spoken for, six pending and two active under contract. Asking prices run from $349,000 to $2,100,000, and the average sits at $764,623. Active price per square foot averages $387. Both of those figures follow the mix of homes on the market right now, not a change in what any one house is worth. What sold tells the rest of the story. Four homes closed in Yachats in July at a median price of $462,000, and supply stretched to 7.2 months.

Market at a Glance - August 2026

Thirty-one homes available is a thin shelf, and the spread across them is wide. A small cottage a few blocks off the highway and an oceanfront home on the bluff sit in the same report. That is the usual shape of this market. The average asking price lands at $764,623. The middle listing sits at $690,000, and that is the more useful number here. A couple of high-end homes pull the average up.

Eight homes are under contract, six pending and two active under contract, and those are not counted in the 31. That is a meaningful share of the market working its way toward closing. Buyers looking at the top of the range can also watch the wider selection of oceanfront homes along the Lincoln County coast.

Note: these are asking prices for homes still on the market, not a valuation of any specific property. Condo inventory in Yachats stays thin, so buyers tracking that segment can also follow the wider Lincoln County condo market.

Four homes closed in Yachats in July 2026, down from six in June. The median sale price was $462,000. Median means the middle sale, with half above and half below. That is a long way down from June's $740,000 median, and four sales is a small enough sample that one modest cottage closing can pull the middle down. Sellers collected about 98 percent of their final asking price, a shade better than June. Median price per square foot among the sold homes was $324. Closed volume totaled $2,124,000.

Two things are worth knowing about those numbers. RPR keeps a second count drawn from county public records, and it logged eight July sales at a $405,500 median and $377 per square foot. County records and broker listing records do not cover the same set of sales, so the two will not line up. The 85 day median RPR shows for July is also its own measure. It is not the same as the days on market a broker would quote you off the listing service. The two should not be read side by side.

Elsewhere in the July data, four homes went under contract at a $743,500 median, and six new listings came on the market at a $466,250 median. Months of inventory reached 7.2 in July, up about 3 percent from the month before. That figure estimates how long the current supply would take to clear at the recent pace of sales, and anything past roughly six months usually favors buyers. RPR calls Yachats a buyer's market, which fits. Its computer model put the typical Yachats property at $708,260 in July, down 1.7 percent for the month and up 6.9 percent over the year. That number comes from software reading public and listing records, not from anyone walking through a house.

The Yachats housing market reflects the character of the community. Properties range from modest coastal cottages to oceanfront homes priced above $1 million. Condominiums are relatively few. Manufactured homes on owned land are part of the single-family picture here, and they sit at the more affordable end of what is available. Buyers tend to be second-home purchasers, retirees seeking a quieter coastal base, and a smaller group of year-round residents drawn by the scenery and the slower pace.

For buyers and sellers tracking Oregon coast trends, Yachats offers a window into the upper-middle and premium segments of the county. The low transaction volume means monthly data should be read carefully and followed across several reporting periods. Reading available listings and pending activity together gives the clearest picture.

For owners weighing a sale this fall, the supply number is the one to watch. At 7.2 months, buyers have time to compare, and the homes that move are the ones priced against what is actually listed today.
