Forest Grove has the second-oldest housing in Washington County

14.6% of Forest Grove homes were built before 1950 — more than three times Hillsboro or Beaverton, and the highest share in Washington County (Census ACS 2020–2024, B25034). Nearly half the city, 48.1%, predates 1980.

That is a genuinely different housing stock than the rest of the county. The older blocks near Pacific University are full of pre-war houses that have been rentals for decades — and a hundred-year-old house that has been a student rental for thirty years is its own category of listing problem.

And the payment pressure here is real

34.2% of Forest Grove homeowners with a mortgage spend 30% or more of their income on housing (B25091) — far above Hillsboro's 24.2% or Tigard's 24.4%, and the highest in Washington County. Median household income is $87,933 against a median home value of $479,600.

Older houses and stretched budgets is the combination that produces deferred maintenance, because the money that should go to the roof goes to the payment instead.

A third of owners have no mortgage at all

At the same time, 33.5% of Forest Grove owners own free and clear, and 13.9% of households are a senior living alone — both high for Washington County (B11007). Two very different populations in the same small city: young households stretched thin, and long-time owners sitting on paid-off houses.

The second group is where most of our Forest Grove calls come from. A parent passes, the house has been in the family forty years, and the heirs are scattered. Start with our guide to selling an inherited property in Oregon or read how long probate actually takes.

If you would rather sell your Forest Grove house for cash than fix it up and list it, that is exactly what we are built for.
