One of the greatest things about visiting Sunriver in the fall, once school has started... the bike paths are not crowded, the golf courses have tee times and life is much slower. All you empty nesters come take advatange of this great time.

Central Oregon Home Buyers you will be amazed at how much easier it is to get into those vacation rentals most of them are vacant for at least one day when you are here.

The Sunriver village mall is in great need of a total make over. Finally it is getting done. The county has passed the zoning change and now there are just a few steps away from moving forward. I imagine it will be probably close to two more years before Sunriver and Silver Star start breaking ground but at least we are moving forward. They are still not at the approved stage for the conceptional drawings but it still looks like we are going to moving forward with upscale retail obn the bottom, office 2nd storie, and loft living up top.

How can I make sure a home is in compliance with all SROA CC&R's before buying a property?

Make sure your agent requests that any offer is contingent on an SROA inspection of the property. Additional info is available at the SROA website

A special SROA Inspection Addendum should be included with any offer to buy Sunriver property.

How is this market affecting Sunriver?

Like the rest of Central Oregon, Sunriver is being affected by the market slowdown. However when compared to the Bend, Redmond and the La Pine markets, Sunriver home prices are still going strong.

Despite the fact that sales volume and the number of sales transactions were down considerably in the first quarter of 2008, Sunriver still maintained year over year gains in median sales prices. According to 2007 MLS data Sunriver also had the highest Average Sales Price and the lowest Average Days on Market in Central Oregon for 2007.

Sunriver is predominantly a second home market so it is not affected in the same way as other markets.

As promised I am following up on last weeks County Commissioner Meeting hearing public testimony in regards to the Sunriver Village Mall. Arriving at the Great Hall in Sunriver, OR at 6:00 on a Wednesday April 30^th the room was already buzzing. The anticipation of what was going to be in store for the evening was heavy in the air. All the chairs were filled and some - myself included found a perch on the stairs. The Deschutes County Commissioners; Mike Daly, Dennis Luke and Tammy Baney Melton and staff sitting in the front called the meeting to order. Looking around I notice Sunriver security is here in force - an ominous presence - what are they expecting to happen? Only time will tell how this evening is going to play out.

Well, the evening progressed. One after another members of the Sunriver community come before the Commissioners to state their pleas - in support of SilverStar's proposed revitalization of the current rundown and depleted Sunriver Village Mall. Around 50 of the approximate 300 people gave testimony for two and one half hours this evening. How many in opposition - you ask? From my last post - you all may be wondering - where is the controversy? Me too! This had to be the most civilized "controversy" in history! This community - at least those who chose to attended this hearing - have banded together to show their full support for SilverStar and the new mixed-use retail and residential village. Please see my original blog at Give-it-Your-Best-Shot SilverStar posted 4/30/08.

The biggest "controversy" of the night was the timeline for when the text agreement decission would be made final. After much discussion it was finally agreed that final text agreement regarding SilverStar's proposal will be discussed at the regular June 4^th 10:00 AM Commissioners Meeting. The date certain to close the record on this hearing will remain open until the middle of summer.

Well, that is it for now - I will keep you posted as the plans unfold. Thanks you for catching the buzzzzz!
