National Smile Power Day
Happy National Smile Power Day!
A smile is one of the simplest ways to brighten someone’s day. It creates connections, spreads
kindness, and can make even the busiest day a little better.
As we celebrate National Smile Power Day, take a moment to share a smile with a neighbor, friend,
coworker, or even a stranger. You never know how much of a difference it might make.
And if you’re dreaming of a new place to call home, remember that every home search starts with
hope and a smile. ■
Wishing you a day filled with positivity, happiness, and reasons to smile!

June is National Homeownership Month
June is National Homeownership Month!
Homeownership is about more than just owning a house—it’s about creating memories, building
financial stability, and putting down roots in a community.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a growing family looking for more space, or someone ready to
downsize, homeownership remains one of the most rewarding investments many people make.
Why Homeownership Matters
• Builds long-term wealth and equity
• Provides stability and security
• Creates a space uniquely your own
• Strengthens communities and neighborhoods
• Offers potential tax advantages*
If you’ve been thinking about buying, selling, or investing in real estate, June is a great time to
explore your options and make a plan for your future.
Happy National Homeownership Month!
Thinking about making a move this year? I’d love to help you navigate today’s market and find the
perfect place to call home.

Southern Oregon Real Estate Market Update

Jackson County
• Existing home median price: $418,000
• New construction median price: $472,498
• Rural home median price: $635,000
Josephine County
• Existing home median price: $364,000

What This Means
Inventory has increased throughout Southern Oregon, giving buyers more choices than we’ve seen
in recent years. Well-priced homes are still selling, buyers are negotiating more, and overpriced
listings are taking longer to sell.
Local Perspective
For homeowners considering a move, today’s market rewards preparation and accurate pricing. For
buyers, increased inventory means more options and a little more negotiating power. The frenzy
may have cooled, but homes are still changing hands every day throughout the Rogue Valley.
Thinking of buying or selling this summer? Let’s talk about what’s happening in your
neighborhood and create a strategy that fits today’s market.

National Donut Day & Finding the Perfect Home
National Donut Day is a fun reminder that everyone has their own favorite flavor—and the same is
true when it comes to finding a home.
Some people dream of a charming cottage with a welcoming front porch. Others are looking for a
home with a large kitchen for family gatherings, extra land for hobbies, or a quiet neighborhood
close to schools and parks. Just like choosing a donut from the bakery box, there’s no single “right”
choice—only the one that’s right for you.
The real estate market offers a variety of opportunities, and finding the perfect fit often comes down
to understanding your goals, lifestyle, and future plans. Whether you’re buying your first home,
upgrading to a larger space, downsizing, or investing, the key is finding a property that feels like
home the moment you walk through the door.
This National Donut Day, take a moment to enjoy a sweet treat and think about what features would
make your dream home even sweeter. If you’re ready to explore your options in Southern Oregon,
I’d be happy to help.
Happy National Donut Day! ■■

National Cheese Day: Celebrating a Southern Oregon Favorite
On National Cheese Day, we’re fortunate to live in a region known for producing some of the finest
cheese in the country.
Right here in Southern Oregon, Rogue Creamery has earned international recognition for its
exceptional blue cheese. Their cheeses have won prestigious awards and helped put Oregon on
the map for cheese lovers around the world.
Just as great cheese brings people together, so do the homes we live in. Whether it’s gathering
around the kitchen table for a family meal, hosting friends for a backyard barbecue, or creating new
traditions, home is where life’s best moments happen.
When buyers search for a new home, they’re often looking beyond bedrooms and square footage.
They’re imagining where they’ll celebrate holidays, share meals, and make memories with the
people they care about most.
This National Cheese Day, consider supporting a local Southern Oregon favorite and take a
moment to appreciate the comforts of home.
Happy National Cheese Day!

June Has Arrived
As we move into June, the real estate market across Southern Oregon is entering one of its busiest
seasons of the year.
Longer days, warmer weather, and the end of the school year often encourage buyers and sellers
to take action. More homes typically come on the market during late spring and early summer,
giving buyers additional choices while creating new opportunities for sellers to showcase their
properties.
While the market has shifted from the fast-paced environment of recent years, well-priced and
well-presented homes continue to attract strong interest. Buyers today are taking a more thoughtful
approach, carefully evaluating their options and looking for homes that best fit their needs and
budget.
For sellers, this means preparation matters. Clean, well-maintained homes that are priced
appropriately for today’s market often stand out from the competition.
For buyers, increased inventory can mean more opportunities and less pressure than in previous
years. Having a knowledgeable real estate professional by your side can help you navigate
available options and make informed decisions.
Whether you’re considering buying, selling, or simply keeping an eye on the market, June is an
excellent time to explore your options and develop a plan for the months ahead.
The Southern Oregon lifestyle continues to attract people looking for beautiful scenery, outdoor
recreation, and a strong sense of community. As we head into summer, I look forward to helping
clients achieve their real estate goals.
Happy June!
