Keizer prices, programs, and the path through.
Keizer incorporated in 1982 specifically to prevent annexation by Salem, preserving its own municipal identity; positioned on the north side of the Salem metro with River Road North as its commercial spine and the Willamette River its western edge, the city delivers suburban amenity at entry-to-mid price points well below the Portland metro. (Marion County is baseline — Oregon has no high-cost counties.)
That Keizer market shapes the loan. For Keizer, 2026 conforming tops out at Marion County’s $832,750 baseline on one-unit Keizer homes. With Keizer homes mostly under $832,750, conventional plus FHA plus down-payment-assistance all work on Keizer files. Per FHFA’s 2026 schedule — we’ll check your exact numbers.
Keizer holds 37,000-plus residents across pockets like McNary Estates and Chemawa/Gubser corridor, with Salem and Albany right next door.
