Market Statistics For Salt Lake County-October

Market Statistics For Salt Lake County

There is good news ahead for all you folks that have been anxiously awaiting good news on the real estate front. The market statistics for Salt Lake County are right here in this video graciously produced by the Salt Lake Board of Realtors.

What this video says is that home sales in Salt Lake County are up over last year, prices are stabilizing in most areas (some areas with a lot of distressed properties will continue with a slight decrease), but quite honestly…all in all it’s a great time to buy a home. Lots of buyers are jumping off the proverbial fence and taking advantage of great prices and low interest rates in homes along the Wasatch front, and with first time buyers jumping in, that starts the domino effect for those of you who have homes to sell before you can move on.

So, if you are ready to take the plunge….there’s even better news! You first time homebuyers still have time to get into your new home before the Holidays (well, unless you are talking about Thanksgiving…we have to draw the line somewhere!)

Give us a call at 801.819.9005 and let’s chat about how we can help you get started down the right road to be Home For The Holidays!

Posted in Featured, General Musings, Housing Analysis

I just got a Zillow Zestimate on my

Utah home, is that really the value?

We get this question quite often, not only from our regular buyer and seller clients, but our investor clients as well who rely heavily on fair market value to determine what properties to pursue.
