Utah Home Trends Continue Upward January, 2014 Utah home sales are up and home prices are up the first half of 2013. The supply of homes is falling to a 7 month supply, giving home buyers a smaller selection to choose from. Mortgage interest rates are now going up and are expected to continue to rise, making affordability more difficult. For many home buyers, now is the time to buy before prices go any higher and interest rates go higher.

Utah Home Prices & Demand Are Up January 2013 Utah home sales were up in 2012, experiencing a 16% increase for the year. Condominium sales rose by 24%. While home and condo sales are up in Utah, prices for homes rose by 5% while condos rose by 2%. An average home sold for 183,500 last year while condos sold for an average of $137,238.1 Salt Lake County is the place for bargains with home prices decreasing by 6% while demand is up by 15%, offering many home buyers in this area a bargain in the face of rising demand.2 The first three months of 2013 continue the upward trend with median home prices up by $8500 and sales up by 5%. Expected home trends for Utah in 2013 include stronger buyer confidence as strong job growth continues to climb with interest rates remaining low making housing more affordable. Pent up demand caused by recession job losses and by many who were forced to move-in with family or friends will improve this year, allowing more families to move out to their own home or condo. Rising rental rates will continue to motivate renters to become home owners; thereby, increasing demand for condos and homes in Utah. Home sales will likely increase by 15 to 20 percent for 2013.3 The increase in housing prices is driven by rising demand and lagging supply due primarily to the following factors:

Affordability – In the first quarter of 2012 the median income family in the Salt Lake metropolitan area could afford 82 percent of the homes sold. This is the highest level of affordability locally in the 21-year history of the NAHB affordability index. Affordability is attracting buyers to the market and fueling increased demand.
Low Inventories – Inventories of unsold new homes and listings of “for sale homes” are at the lowest level in many years. Home builders have been reluctant and in some cases unable to carry unsold inventory. A few models in subdivisions have been the extent of the homebuilder’s unsold inventory. On the existing home side, supply has been limited due to the decline in listings of “for sale” homes. In 2012 active listings were at the lowest level in the past twelve years. Fewer homes for sale – whether new homes or listed properties – tends to push prices higher.
