Two Central Oregon homes stand out this week for very different reasons. One is move-in ready and priced right in Redmond. The other has been sitting long enough in Bend to give buyers real negotiating power. If you’re watching the market for value, both deserve a second look.

 

🟥 Redmond Deal: Move-In Ready + Bonus Flex Space

$499,000 | 4 Beds | 3 Baths | 1,842 Sq Ft
NW Redmond • Redhawk Area

This is the kind of Redmond listing buyers like right now — clean, functional, and ready to go.

  • Fresh interior paint

  • Brand-new furnace

  • Gas fireplace

  • Landscaped yard with mature trees

  • Detached flex space with its own mini-split (office, gym, studio, or hobby room)

  • All appliances included

The seller is even open to garage conversion options, which adds flexibility without starting from scratch.

Why it’s a deal:
Turnkey homes under $500K in NW Redmond don’t last long. This one minimizes upfront costs and gives buyers usable bonus space without a remodel.

🌲 Bend Deal: Long Days on Market = Buyer Leverage

$630,000 | 3 Beds | 2 Baths | 1,658 Sq Ft
SW Bend • Homestead Area

This home has been quietly sitting — and that’s where the opportunity is.

  • Large 0.32-acre lot with mature trees

  • Updated paint, fixtures, hardwood floors

  • Kitchen and bathroom improvements already done

  • RV parking, storage shed, oversized driveway

  • Easy access to Old Mill, Cascade Lakes Hwy, and Mt. Bachelor

With 269 days on market, buyers finally have room to negotiate on price, terms, or credits.

Why it’s a deal:
Large lots this close to town are rare. The updates are done, the location is strong, and time on market shifts leverage back to the buyer.

Bottom Line for Buyers
