Clinton UT Real Estate Update

* 26% of the current single family home MLS listings are under contract
* 16% of those listings under contract are "short sales"
* At least 26% of the listings under contract are vacant
* The median price of the listings under contract is $192,500
* The median price of active listings is $194,000
* There is an less than 1% disparity between what sellers want to sell their homes for and what buyers are ready, willing and able to pay for a home

If it weren't for the high percentage of "under contracts" that are short sales, Clinton would actually be experiencing healthy real estate market conditions right now.

The lack of disparity between the median active and under contract list prices is interesting in that there are still 10 months of inventory on the market in Roy. This area of Weber County has always weathered the ups and downs in normal real estate cycles here locally, including those times when our largest employer, Hill AFB, has experienced reductions in force, loss of defense contracts and even a BRAC threat or two. Does anyone have any insight they can share with me to pass on to my seller-clients in this community? Thanks in advance ...
