Hello Everyone!
I just wanted to pass along May’s Real Estate Market Summary before everyone gets in vacation mode!  If you are leaving town, make sure to take precautions as I have heard of several break-ins in Tooele recently.  Especially remember to lock the garage door to your home, have mail and newspapers held or brought in for you bay a neighbor, and try to make it look like someone is there while you are gone.  Here is the market information:

If you or any one you know is looking to buy or sell real estate, have them give me a call!  Also if you know of anyone having trouble making their house payments, please call me.  There are many options available, and I would be happy to help you or your friend work through the tough times that they are facing so foreclosure can be avoided!  If you do not wish to receive these e-mails, please send an opt-out message to andreacahoon@remax.net.  Enjoy your summer!

August 2010 Market Summaries for Tooele and Salt Lake Counties

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

Hello Everyone!
I think I am beginning to feel fall in the air this week and have noticed some of the leaves are turning on some trees and bushes.  The market is still slow since the federal tax credits expired, but I am glad that the market will now be able to recover without any outside “stimulation” from the government.  It will be slow going for a while, but it will come back.  As children go back to school, the market will pick up a bit as people return to their routines!   I have received a request to include the Absorption Rate, which is simply the number of homes on the market divided by the number of homes sold.  The Wasatch Front Regional Multiple Listing Service reports this in the following increments:  2 month, 3 month, 4 month, 5 month, 6 month, and twelve month.  I will include the 2 and 3 month numbers in this report.  Here is the sales information for Tooele and Salt Lake Counties for August 2010:
 
Tooele County
August 1-31, 2010
 
Number of Homes Sold:  35
Average Sales Price:  $191,718
Average Price Per Square Foot: $71.02
Average Days on Market:  117
 
2 month Absorption Rate:  44.5 per month; 13.46 months of inventory
3 month Absorption Rate:  52.33 per month; 11.45 months of inventory
 
Tooele County
August 1-31, 2009
 
Number of Homes Sold:  50
Average Sales Price:  $167,438
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $84.55
Average Days on Market:  129
 
 
 
Salt Lake County
August 1-31, 2010
 
Number of Homes Sold:  731
Average Sales Price:  $253,605
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $99
Average Days on Market:  124
 

2 month Absorption Rate: 724.5 per month; 11.62 months of inventory
3 month Absorption Rate: 802.67 per month; 10.49 months of inventory

 
Salt Lake County
August 1-31, 2009
 
Number of Homes Sold: 1036
Average Sales Price:  $256,310
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $109.73
Average Days on Market:  118
 
Many of you have contacted me to assist you with challenging the market value of your property for tax purposes and I am glad I can help you!  If you feel your property is assessed to high, you must appeal before September 15.  I hope providing this information to you is helpful and informative.  If you do not wish to receive these e-mails, please send an opt-out message to andreacahoon@remax.net.  I appreciate all of your referrals and kind words!  THANK YOU!

May 2010 Real Estate Market Summaries

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

Wow!  I am loving the gorgeous, mild weather we are having.  I keep reminding myself that this is Utah, so it could change at any minute!  In this past month I have seen both positive and negative changes in the market.  The days on market (DOM) seems to be decreasing (yeah!) but so is the average sold price and average price per square foot (boo if you are a seller and yeah if you are a buyer).  The number of homes sold in May of 2009 and May of 2010 in Tooele County was exactly the same.  We will have to watch closely as the summer selling season is upon us and hopefully we will see a market stabilization!  Here are the numbers for you:
 
Tooele County
May 1-31, 2010
 
Number of Homes Sold:  57
Average Sales Price:  $166,960.32
Average Price Per Square Foot: $70.45
Average Days on Market:  130
 
 
Tooele County
May 1-31, 2009
 
Number of Homes Sold:  57
Average Sales Price:  $188,256.23
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $85.78
Average Days on Market:  143
 
 
 
Salt Lake County
May 1-31, 2010
 
Number of Homes Sold:  1178
Average Sales Price:  $235,680.60
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $103.30
Average Days on Market:  111
 
 
 
Salt Lake County
May 1-31, 2009
 
Number of Homes Sold:  1014
Average Sales Price:  $262,710.59
Average Price Per Square Foot:  $108.23
Average Days on Market:  132
 
I have noticed that 30 year mortage rates are running about 4.8% to 5% right now.  I hope you are all enjoying the long summer days with your children!  If you have any questions about this report or real estate, please let me know and I would be glad to help in any way I can!  Until next month!
