The increase is driven by buyers leaving pricey coastal areas like the Bay Area and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a> in favor of relatively affordable places like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise, ID<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend, OR<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The latest migration analysis is based on a sample of more than 2 million Redfin.com users who searched for homes across 87 metro areas in January, excluding searches unlikely to precede an actual relocation or home purchase. To be included in this dataset, a Redfin.com user must have viewed at least 10 homes in a particular metro area, and homes in that area must make up at least 80% of the user\u2019s searches.<\/p>\n<h3>The number of homebuyers looking to move to Bend, Boise and Charleston has more than doubled over the last year<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> had a net inflow of roughly 1,600 Redfin.com users in January, up from 750 in January 2020, before the onset of the pandemic. A net inflow is a measure of how many more Redfin.com home searchers looked to move into a metro than leave out of a sample of 2 million Redfin users.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> is one of 17 metros where net inflow has more than doubled over the last year. Another example is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a>, which had a net inflow of roughly 1,100 Redfin.com users in January, up from 500 the year before. And <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/3478\/SC\/Charleston\">Charleston<\/a> had a net inflow of about 1,000, up from 300. Compared to major cities like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/30749\/NY\/New-York\">New York<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a>, those are all relatively affordable areas that offer a slower pace of life and plenty of natural beauty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a> has been hot with out-of-towners for the last several years, but the pandemic has pushed people who were on the brink to move here as quickly as possible,\u201d said local Redfin agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/kristin-lopez\">Kristin Lopez<\/a>. \u201cAlmost all my buyers are people from California, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/12839\/DC\/Washington-DC\">Washington<\/a>, Oregon, Texas and Arizona who can work remotely and have kids in online school. There\u2019s an interesting dynamic right now because <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a> is still less expensive than places like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a>, but migration has caused prices to skyrocket and supply to shrink. Some buyers have been searching for six months and now suddenly they\u2019re priced out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt makes it hard for locals to buy a home,\u201d Lopez continued. \u201cLocal wages haven\u2019t caught up with the appreciation of home prices. And as long as interest rates stay low, I don\u2019t foresee the market slowing down anytime in at least the next year.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> Redfin agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/amy-mora\">Amy Mora<\/a> said the majority of people buying homes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> are coming from comparatively expensive West Coast cities like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/17151\/CA\/San-Francisco\">San Francisco<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of these buyers are benefiting from their companies\u2019 remote work policy and moving to central Oregon because home prices pale in comparison to a place like the Bay Area and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> offers a simple, outdoor-focused lifestyle,\u201d Mora said. \u201cOut-of-towners are buying both primary and second homes. The prices here have shot up and almost every home for sale is receiving multiple offers. That means some local homebuyers are priced out, but others\u2014especially retirees\u2014are taking advantage of the hot market, selling their home and moving to a more affordable place like Arizona or Nevada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/30772\/OR\/Portland\">Portland, OR<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a> and the Bay Area were the top origins for homebuyers moving into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a> from out of town, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a>, the Bay Area and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a> were the top origins for those moving to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/30749\/NY\/New-York\">New York<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/12839\/DC\/Washington-DC\">Washington, D.C.<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/29470\/IL\/Chicago\">Chicago<\/a> were the top origins for people relocating to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/3478\/SC\/Charleston\">Charleston<\/a>. Although <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/3478\/SC\/Charleston\">Charleston<\/a> aren\u2019t necessarily inexpensive\u2014the median home-sale price in January was $509,000 in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/1543\/OR\/Bend\">Bend<\/a>, $420,000 in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/2287\/ID\/Boise\">Boise<\/a> and $330,000 in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/3478\/SC\/Charleston\">Charleston<\/a>\u2014they are more affordable than the places people are moving from. For instance, the typical home sold for $1.34 million in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/17151\/CA\/San-Francisco\">San Francisco<\/a> metro in January, and $725,000 in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/30818\/TX\/Austin\">Austin<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/953\/CA\/Bakersfield\">Bakersfield, CA<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/34945\/HI\/Honolulu\">Honolulu<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11458\/FL\/Miami\">Miami<\/a> are also among the places with 100%-plus increases in the number of people looking to move in.
