Why is Portland Real estate doing so bad?

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Portland has the worst housing crisis outlook among the largest metro areas in the United States, according to a LendingTree study released Tuesday.

Not just Residential, but also commercial. They say it is the worst city to invest in.

There’s a growing list of distressed commercial office buildings in Portland – some of the most iconic and largest ones. In the second half of 2023, this situation has finally come to a head. How bad is it? The numbers are almost twice as bad as they have ever been in 50 years, and some say Portland is facing at least a decade of downturn.

The drug epidemic and the homeless epidemic is the reason why businesses are pulling out of Portland. The amount of crime and inaction from local leaders to protect businesses has left people not wanting to be there. Legalizing all drugs and just expecting no fallout was stupid. I don't know why the residental housing is so expensive because it's not like there is anything great being offered. The only thing that is doing is making the homeless issue worse as you can't even afford even a studio in Portland.
