We need Positive Price Action to confirm market bottom.  One month of price improve isn't sufficient to confirm the market bottom.  We need to see appreciation month over month for three months. PRICE ACTION   Other good signs in addition to positive price action is lower DOM (days of the market), lower new listings and higher percent of new listings being SOLD.    SUMMARY Currently we are not seeing the needed positive price action (along with other indicators) to confirm a market bottom.  This is NOT a good time for those with low and/or no risk tolerance to purchase.  High and medium risk tolerant investors are making buying decisions and are doing some bottom fishing.  Some are trying to time the market and market timing is risky.  Trying to time the bottom is not for the inexperien... 05/08/2009

Here is the updated Layton market snapshot report for the most recent quarter. We are starting to distance ourselves from the frozen credit markets we experienced in the fourth quarter of 2008 and after the first of the year. However, the local real estate market is still a bit sluggish. We are now starting to report more significant price point impacts as sellers are forced to adjust their pricing in order to obtain offers. As I mentioned in my fourth quarter report, the impact of elevated inventory levels and the increase in distressed properties (e.g. short sales, foreclosures) is being felt as these properties are now being sold and the price impacts being reported. The trend line continues to be downward and most analysis would indicate this trend will likely continue through at le... 05/04/2009

Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) - Ending Early Private mortgage insurance, or PMI, is the safety net of the lender. PMI benefits lenders because it guarantees payment on the balance of loans not covered by the sale of foreclosed properties. If a borrower makes a down payment of 20% of the cost of the home, the lender can generally trust that he will make his mortgage payments faithfully to protect a large investment. In this case, the lender comes out ahead if the borrower is forced to foreclose on his house, because the lender loans 80% of the cost of the house, but will probably recover 100% of the cost of the house. But, if the borrower makes a smaller down-payment, such as 3%, 5% or 10%, and borrows the rest, and then defaults on his loan, the lender loses money. If a house is purc... 05/01/2009

There are as of 1 October 2008, 516 active homes on the market with another 79 homes under contract for a total of 595.  By calculating what percentage of the total the 79 homes under contract are you know if Layton is a buyers or a sellers market. 79 divided by 595 = 13%.  If the % is under 25 percent then it is a buyers market.  If it's over 25% then it's a sellers market.  So Layton, UT is currently experiencing a buyer's market.  To find out more about market conditions in Utah just give me a call at 801-540-3825 09/30/2008

That's right. There are more than 500 homes for sale in Layton Utah.  Home listings are increasing, but  home sales are staying pretty stagnant. This makes it harder for owners to sell their homes, and forces them to lower prices to be more competitive. During the first six months of 2008 427 single family homes and condos were sold in Layton. The average price of the homes sold was $229,852. The average price of active Layton home listings is $311,261. The reality of the matter is that if these homes want to sell soon, they'll need to lower their prices or else they'll be on the market for a long long time. 07/15/2008

70 acres of farmland located near in Layton is a proposed spot to put in a residential development.  The purposed development is located south of Antelope Drive at 2000 North and 1450 East.  It is on the backside of Heather Drive.  In the year 2001 the Heather Hills subdivision experienced a landslide that resulted in three homes having to be demolished and relocated.  The slide also caused a million dollars worth of property damage and dropped the land elevation by 9 feet in some areas. Layton city council is meeting to discuss the proposed development.  The rezone has already received the recommendation that the developers should submit a soil/geotechnical report that meets city approval.  I will update this story when more information is available.  04/22/2007
