How long does it take to buy a house in Corvallis in 2026?

During the height of the pandemic in 2022, the typical home took less than a month to go from listed to under contract, creating the fastest housing market in history. But since then, home prices and mortgage rates have climbed substantially, pricing out many would-be buyers and sellers and slowing the market to a crawl.

It's not all bad news, though. Recently, more consumers have been testing the waters on the heels of slowly improving affordability—and buyers who are in the market are especially keen to take advantage of a slow and favorable landscape. Buyers face less competition in most parts of the country, giving them more room to negotiate.
