10 Must-See Open Houses This Weekend (6/11 – 6/13)

Searching for a new home? Now more than ever is the time to stay on top of open houses. It’s probably not news to you that with demand through the roof, homes are selling fast. So you can expect that most homes who host an open house event will sell quickly.

If you’re wondering why, it’s as simple as you might think. Open houses drum up interest, for one thing. But another feat they accomplish is gathering together potential buyers. As a general rule, open houses happen on the weekend. The few days following that weekend, you might see those home go pending as the sellers wait for and weigh the incoming offers. Between the offers coming in at one time and the convenience of preparing the house for showing at one time, open houses make sense for sellers.

What does that mean for buyers, though? Unfortunately, at the moment buyers do need to keep chasing leads, and open houses are a convenient and prudent way to do so. Let’s check some out, then! We’ve gathered here the ten properties with the best price per square footage featuring open houses happening this weekend.

We’ll get things started a little differently this time – with a fixer. This property made our Smart Fixer List, meaning it’s a property that, while it may need a little work, comes with a ton of potential. This spacious home boasts a huge walk in closet, a walk in pantry, and bright, open rooms. For the right buyer – one not put off by the work needed – this home could become both a monetary asset and a wonderful place to live.

#2 – 308 S Dakota St.

Let’s hop over the river now to a quiet and lovely South Portland neighborhood. Speaking of spacious, the square footage you’ll get here is pretty special – nearly 4,000 square feet is no mean feat. The exterior of the home won’t disappoint either, with the focal point of the majestic wraparound porch. A partially finished basement offers an opportunity for an ADU or additional living space.

#3 – 3345 NE 84th Ave.

Now for a charming slice of Northeast Portland, take a gander at this gorgeous and very reasonably priced Tudor. From the inviting hearth to the quaint breakfast nook to the sanctuary of a backyard, this property exudes charm like a fairy tale. The original wood trim certainly helps!

#4 – 5590 SW Dover Ln.

The curb appeal of this next home really sets the tone. Between the palm trees and the elegant fountain, this one promises a little luxury and some relaxation. And the inside delivers! This sprawling home offers plenty of room for everyone to spread out – including the in-laws in a lower level separate living quarters. Don’t miss the standalone tub in the primary bathroom!

#5 – 4411 SE Windsor Ct.

Location, location, location! Here it certainly applies. Just a block off Division, this home is sure to stick you in the middle of the action. But beyond that, this home comes with some real perks as a result of recent updates. The last work done on the home took an eye toward energy efficiency – including a new furnace and water heater and added insulation. Cut down on your energy bills and do the planet a favor!

#6 – 3145 SW Altadena Terrace

Looking for a little more space? Check out this expansive Mid Century home tucked into a private part of Southwest Portland.

#7 – 3220 NE 33rd Ave.

Next up we’ll take a trip to Northeast Portland and eye this endearing cottage. Location here doesn’t exactly hurt either. We’re talking about the high desirable Alameda neighborhood. Modern updates – including a radon mitigation system – sit aside the old school charm of this home and its lovely yard (including chicken coop).
