2022 park city real estate market statisticsAs the market adjusts and corrects for the enormous upswings that have occurred since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, the Wasatch Back market has started to experience some shifts. Available inventory is finally rising after a period of extreme scarcity, and price appreciation is beginning to slow.

At the end of the second quarter of 2022, there were 545 single-family homes for sale, nearly triple the count from six months earlier. With the increased inventory, buyers are feeling less pressure to make instant offers above asking price, and many sellers are responding by lowering prices. As buyers begin to take a more measured approach to home buying, the overall rate of sales is showing signs of slowing, with overall sales volume dropping 22% for single-family homes and rising 3% for condominiums. Despite this cooling off in overall sales volume, the average and median sale prices for single family homes still showed substantial increases of 15% and 11% respectively.

Moving forward, it is well worth keeping a close eye on how larger economic forces, such as mortgage rates, inflation, and stock market volatility continue to shape our local real estate market. I look forward to keeping you up to date in future newsletters, and in the meantime, I hope you enjoy our 2nd Quarter market statistics. As always, if you have any follow-up questions please reach out!
