CNBC reported the average 30-year mortgage rate rose to 7.49% the week of October 7, 2026. That is a real headwind for buyers. Yet one part of this market is still moving quickly. Knowing which part matters for what you do next.

The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 1.9 months of supply in ZIP 97214 for the three months ending August 31, 2026. That is very tight. It means the homes that are listed do not sit long.

The Real Estate Data Aggregator found that 49.3% of homes in 97214 went under contract within two weeks of listing. That is nearly 1 in 2. It was up 3.5 points from the same period a year before. For sellers, sharp pricing and good prep still matter here. For buyers, moving slowly in this ZIP has a real cost.

How 97214 compares with the other ZIPs

Not every part of Oregon City moves at that pace. The Real Estate Data Aggregator shows real differences across ZIPs for the three months ending August 31, 2026.

In 97214, the Real Estate Data Aggregator put the median days on market at just 11 days. That was 6 days shorter than the same period a year before. Homes there also sold at 101.3% of list price on average, meaning many went above asking. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 38.6% of homes in 97214 selling above list price.

In 97239, the Real Estate Data Aggregator counted a median of 53 days on market. That was 9 days longer than a year before. Supply there was 4.6 months. Prices dipped only slightly, up 0.9% to a median of $637,500, but homes are taking longer to move.

In 97201, the Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 5.9 months of supply and a median of 69 days on market. Prices rose 7.9% to a median of $439,000, which is a real gain. But only 13.8% of homes went under contract within two weeks. Not every home sold fast here.

What rising rates mean for this market

CNBC reported that mortgage purchase applications fell 15% compared with the same week one year ago. Refinance applications dropped 56%. Higher rates slow some buyers down. That is worth knowing when you set your price.

Even so, the Real Estate Data Aggregator shows 97214 held its pace. The Federal Housing Finance Agency reported U.S. house prices rose 2.6% from July 2025 to July 2026. Oregon City's 97214 outpaced that on speed, even if prices there dipped 2.7%.

Sales and pending counts in 97214 are down from a year ago. That is an honest admission. But homes that do list are moving quickly and often above asking. The pool is smaller, but the pace is real.

In short
  1. ZIP 97214 had 1.9 months of supply and 49.3% of homes went under contract within two weeks, per the Real Estate Data Aggregator.
  2. ZIPs 97239 and 97201 are slower, with 4.6 and 5.9 months of supply.
  3. CNBC put the 30-year rate at 7.49%, which matters for every buyer in every ZIP.
  4. These are the three months ending August 31, 2026.

One street can read very differently from the whole ZIP code. A home on one block in 97239 might move faster or slower than the ZIP average shows. The numbers above are the starting point, not the whole story.
