In Portland’s hot real estate market, modest homes are entered in bidding wars. Our study of 2016 real estate transactions showed that residential properties were going quickly for up to almost double the asking price. A look at 10 homes that sold for so much more than the asking price in January 2017 reflected properties longer on the market. Many February, March, April, May and June sales were equally over the top. We continue our series to document bidding wars each month once information is available from the real estate database Estately. Almost half — 45 percent — of homes sold in July went for over asking price, including this Rose City Park Craftsman bungalow, which sold for 15 percent over its $535,000 asking price.
