SALT LAKE'S MARKET IS NO LONGER IN LAST PLACE!

September 21, 2005
Last year, Salt Lake City was ranked dead last in real estate appreciation. At the time, many economists felt that the property values were undervalued. Well that news caught the attention of many. Our market has been booming for the last 6 months. And because of the strong interest from out of state investors, we are now ranked 31st in the nation. Our average sales price went from $184,00o to $204,000. For more information look at http://www.realtor.org/rmodaily.nsf/pages/News2005091905?OpenDocument.

Foreclosure Rate down in Utah!

September 16, 2005
New reports came out today that the number of foreclosures in Utah reduced last quarter. Traditionally we have been amongst the nations highest in foreclosure but due to our strong job growth, lower interest rates and stable real estate market. All of these indicators point to Utah still being a solid investment. For more info check out http://sltrib.com/business/ci_3033784.

September Market Update!

September 13, 2005
In the last couple of weeks, we have seen the market start to slow down a bit. The amount of new inventory has reduced mostly due to the beginning of the school year. Every year we see a slow down but in a few weeks we should continue the active market as we have seen in the past months. The market is still seeing multiple offer situations in the hot areas (Avenues, Sugarhouse, and Cottonwood Heights.) But all areas have been very strong with sales happening very fast entire valley has felt it. So bottom line, no matter where you are buying be READY!

Park City is also seeing a slow down. A couple of months ago, everything was moving within the first two days. Now owners are getting frustrated when their home hasn't sold in first 7 days. Don't worry...It will happen. Park City will also see their seasonal shift from homes sales to condo sales. During the summer, the home sales drive the market but once the snow starts their is also more activity for ski condos. Watch for this...It happens every year. Park City is still very strong. I just closed on a condo in Jeremy Ranch where it is appreciating 6-9% a MONTH.

In a couple of weeks we will also see our quarterly numbers. Keep an eye out for that.
