Let's look at the Carr fire near Redding California from July 2018. It burned 1,000+ homes and structures. The year after the fire was difficult because people who lost their homes, rented until they could figure out if they were going to rebuild or sell the lot to purchase a new home. Many of them moved out of California.
25-35% of homeowners rebuild after 2 years. Most people take their insurance money and purchase a standing home or leave the area. Many people who had homes that survived in the burn area are living in them because they can't sell them.

Demand for the McKenzie River lifestyle is high, even with the current loss of trees and infrastructure. The local Real Estate Market has very little inventory, which allows Sellers to have the upper hand in property values.
Contact me and I'll provide you with a complimentary valuation of your property to help you determine your plans to rebuild or sell.
Oregon State adjusted the deadline to build on site for a 5-year term to allow time for the process. The expiration is September 2025
