SOLD

 

We saw an accelerated average appreciation from last August to this May, from May to July we saw a slight decrease in home sales, and now we are seeing a bounce back on an upward trend. Meaning home prices are still higher than this time last year but are not going up as quickly.

 

Last August homes were selling on average 1% higher than their list price, now we are seeing homes sell for 6% less than what they were listed for initially. With more competition, pricing your home right has become even more important to minimize the days you are on the market. Salt lake county is averaging 30 days on market.
