Subject: October Market Update | Ogden Valley & Northern Utah Real Estate

Dear Friends,

As we move into fall, the September real estate numbers provide an interesting look at where our local market is heading. Buyers are still active, but they are taking more time and becoming increasingly selective—making thoughtful pricing and strong marketing more important than ever.

A Closer Look at Ogden Valley

The Ogden Valley single-family market saw 95 active listings and 9 sales in September, compared with 98 active listings and 11 sales in August.

The most notable change was the median sale price, which increased from $900,000 in August to $1,248,999 in September. Price per square foot also increased from $469 to $519.

At the same time, days on market increased from 63 to 115 days. This combination tells us something important: September’s sales included a greater concentration of higher-priced homes, while buyers are continuing to take their time before making a purchase.

For sellers, this reinforces the importance of accurate pricing, compelling presentation and strategic marketing. For buyers, patience and careful evaluation can create opportunities in a market where homes are taking longer to sell.

What We’re Seeing Across the Market

Outside Ogden Valley, activity was mixed:

• Mt. Green: Sales increased significantly from 6 to 13, although days on market rose to 77.
• Ogden Bench: One of the strongest areas for market momentum, with 33 sales and days on market declining to 40.
• North Ogden: Sales increased to 34, but days on market rose to 76.
• Ogden Valley Condos: No sales were reported in September, so there isn’t enough activity to draw meaningful pricing conclusions for the month.

Our Takeaway

The market is not standing still—it is becoming more discerning.

Well-positioned properties can still attract buyers, but today’s buyers are paying close attention to value, condition and location. The days of simply putting a property on the market and waiting for an offer are behind us.

Whether you’re considering selling, buying, or simply want to understand what your property is worth in today’s market, we are always happy to provide a current perspective.

As longtime Ogden Valley residents and real estate professionals, we believe that local knowledge matters—especially in a market as diverse as ours.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d love to hear from you.

Warmly,

As we head into fall, our local real estate market is showing some of the seasonal shifts we typically see at the end of summer. August brought slower sales activity and longer marketing times in most areas, while price-per-square-foot remained remarkably stable.

 

The takeaway? The market is slowing, but values remain resilient. Buyers have more choices and are taking their time, while sellers need to be thoughtful about pricing and presentation.

Ogden Valley Single Family

Ogden Valley remains active, with 11 homes sold in August, the same number as July. Inventory increased slightly to 98 homes, while the median sales price was $900,000.

Interestingly, price per square foot rose substantially to $469, up from $346 in July. This suggests the lower median price was influenced by the mix of properties that sold rather than a broad decline in values.

Homes averaged 63 days on market, compared with 40 days in July. Buyers are clearly being more selective, but desirable, well-priced properties continue to attract attention.

Ogden Valley Condos

The condo market continues to be difficult to measure month-to-month because of the small number of sales. Two condos sold in August, compared with four in July.

The median sales price declined to $511,850, but with only two transactions, this number should be viewed cautiously. Inventory actually decreased slightly, from 57 to 54 units.

Mt. Green

Mt. Green saw a slowdown in sales, with six homes sold compared with 10 in July. The median sales price declined to $687,500, while price per square foot remained exactly the same at $246.

An encouraging sign is that days on market improved significantly—from 80 days to 48. This indicates that while fewer properties sold, the homes that were appropriately positioned continued to move.

Ogden Bench

The Ogden Bench remained relatively stable. Inventory was essentially unchanged, while 29 homes sold compared with 33 in July.

The median sales price increased to $428,000, up 11%, while price per square foot remained virtually unchanged at $219. Homes averaged 53 days on market.

North Ogden

North Ogden experienced a slowdown in sales, with 30 homes sold compared with 43 in July. However, pricing remained remarkably stable. The median sales price was $524,500, and price per square foot actually edged up slightly to $219.

Days on market increased to 44 days, suggesting buyers are taking a little more time before making decisions.

July Market Update | More Inventory, Strong Demand & Rising Prices

As we move through the heart of the summer selling season, our local real estate market continues to find a healthy balance. June brought an increase in available inventory across nearly every market, giving buyers more choices while demand remained strong enough to support rising home values. Well-priced homes continue to attract buyers, although many are taking a bit more time to make purchasing decisions.

Here’s a look at what happened in June:

Ogden Valley

The Ogden Valley single-family market had one of its strongest months of the year. Closed sales doubled from May, while the median sales price climbed to $1.37 million. Although inventory increased slightly, buyer demand remained strong, particularly for quality homes in desirable locations. Homes are still averaging about 91 days on market, reinforcing that today’s buyers are thoughtful and selective, but they are still making moves.

The condo market, on the other hand, saw only one sale during June. Because of the extremely low number of transactions, the reported median sales price and price per square foot were skewed by the sale of a luxury property and should not be viewed as a broader reflection of the condo market.

Mt. Green

Mt. Green continues to gain momentum. Sales more than doubled compared to May, and the median sales price jumped to $850,000. Inventory remains relatively limited, and while homes are taking a little longer to sell, demand remains healthy for well-priced properties.

Ogden Bench

The Ogden Bench saw a noticeable increase in available homes, creating more opportunities for buyers. Even with additional inventory and slightly fewer sales, the median sales price increased more than 13% over May, demonstrating continued confidence in the market.

North Ogden

North Ogden remains one of our most stable markets. Sales activity stayed strong, home prices continued to edge higher, and homes averaged just 40 days on market. The combination of steady demand and growing inventory continues to create a balanced environment for both buyers and sellers.

What This Means

The market is transitioning into a more balanced environment. Buyers have more options than they did earlier this year, but demand remains healthy enough to support continued price appreciation in most markets. Sellers who price their homes strategically and present them well are still seeing excellent results, while buyers are benefiting from increased selection and a little more time to make informed decisions.

If you’re curious about what these trends mean for your home’s value—or if you’re considering buying or selling this year—I’d be happy to provide a personalized market analysis and discuss your options.

As we move into the summer season, May’s market activity reflects a continued shift toward more balanced conditions across the greater Ogden area. Inventory increased in most markets, providing buyers with more choices while creating a more competitive environment for sellers.

In Ogden Valley, the single-family market saw fewer sales and longer market times, despite an increase in median sales price. This suggests that while demand remains strong for desirable luxury properties, buyers are taking more time to evaluate their options. The condo market also experienced slower activity, with fewer transactions and longer days on market, indicating increased buyer selectivity.

Mountain Green continued to stand out as one of the area’s strongest-performing markets. While the number of sales declined, homes that did sell commanded higher prices and moved exceptionally quickly, highlighting ongoing demand for well-priced properties in this desirable community.

The Ogden Bench remained active throughout May, with both inventory and sales increasing. However, homes took longer to sell and pricing softened slightly, reflecting a market that is becoming more balanced between buyers and sellers.

North Ogden continued to show healthy fundamentals, with homes selling faster and median prices increasing. Although sales volume eased from April’s pace, buyer demand remains strong and inventory levels remain manageable.

Overall, May’s statistics point to a healthier and more balanced market than we experienced earlier this spring. Buyers are benefiting from increased inventory and greater negotiating opportunities, while sellers are finding that strategic pricing and thoughtful property presentation are more important than ever.

As we moved into the heart of the spring market, April brought a noticeable increase in buyer activity across much of the greater Ogden area.

In Ogden Valley, the single-family market saw a strong rebound, with sales more than doubling from March and homes selling much faster. While median pricing softened slightly, the sharp increase in price per square foot reflects continued demand for quality properties and desirable locations.

The Ogden Valley condo market also experienced increased activity, including several higher-end sales that pushed median pricing significantly higher. However, condos are still taking longer to sell overall, indicating buyers remain thoughtful and selective.

Mountain Green saw rising inventory and slightly slower sales, though homes sold faster and price per square foot increased — signs that well-priced homes continue to attract attention despite a more balanced market.

The Ogden Bench was one of the strongest-performing areas in April, with stable inventory, rising prices, and significantly faster sales activity. North Ogden also experienced a substantial increase in sales, reflecting strong spring demand even as inventory continues to grow.

Overall, April reflected a healthy and active spring market with increasing inventory, stronger buyer engagement, and improving sales activity across several areas. Buyers are benefiting from more choices, while sellers who price strategically are still seeing strong results.

As we move further into the spring market, March brought a noticeable increase in inventory across most areas surrounding Ogden Valley, giving buyers more options and creating a more dynamic market environment.

In Ogden Valley, particularly in the single-family market, inventory rose while sales slowed and homes took longer to sell. While median prices edged up slightly, the longer days on market suggest buyers are becoming more selective — especially in the higher-end segment.

The Ogden Valley condo market saw a slight increase in sales, but with lower median pricing and longer market times, indicating continued price sensitivity among buyers.

Mountain Green showed encouraging signs of strength, with steady sales and notable increases in both median price and price per square foot, reflecting solid demand even as inventory grows.

The Ogden Bench experienced a strong uptick in sales activity, with more homes closing and prices increasing modestly. Despite rising inventory, the market here remains balanced and active.

North Ogden also saw increased sales and significantly faster market times, pointing to strong buyer demand. While median price dipped, the increase in price per square foot suggests continued underlying value.

Overall, March reflects a market in transition. Inventory is rising as we head into peak season, and while some areas are seeing strong activity, others are experiencing longer selling times and more price sensitivity. For sellers, strategic pricing is key, while buyers are benefiting from increased choices and opportunities.

Ogden Valley Area Real Estate Market Update
February 2026 vs. January 2026

February’s market activity provides an early indication that the spring real estate season is beginning to gain momentum across the greater Ogden area. While some trends remain mixed depending on the neighborhood and property type, several markets showed stronger buyer activity compared to January.

In Ogden Valley, the single-family home market continued to strengthen. Closed sales increased, homes sold more quickly, and both the median price and price per square foot rose. Inventory increased slightly as new listings came to market, but the improved sales activity and shorter time on market suggest buyers are becoming more active as we move closer to spring.

The Ogden Valley condo market saw very limited sales again in February, though transactions did increase compared to January. Median prices rose significantly, though the lower price per square foot indicates that the mix of properties sold may have included larger or different-style units. Days on market increased, suggesting buyers are still being selective and taking more time before making purchasing decisions.

In Mountain Green, sales activity doubled in February, showing increased buyer interest. However, the median price dropped substantially compared to January. This appears to reflect a shift in the types of homes selling rather than a major change in overall values, with more mid-range properties closing during the month. Homes also took longer to sell compared to January.

The Ogden Bench market remained relatively stable month over month. Inventory increased slightly while the number of sales dipped modestly. Median prices held steady and price per square foot rose, suggesting steady demand and generally balanced conditions between buyers and sellers.

Meanwhile, North Ogden saw a decrease in both inventory and sales, but pricing metrics strengthened. Median price and price per square foot both increased, and homes sold significantly faster than they did in January. These trends suggest that demand remains healthy and buyers are responding quickly when well-priced homes become available.

Overall, February data suggests that the market is gradually transitioning toward the spring selling season. Buyer activity is beginning to increase in several areas, particularly for well-priced homes. Inventory remains relatively balanced, giving buyers more choices while still allowing properly priced homes to sell in a reasonable timeframe.

Ogden Valley Area Real Estate Market Update
January 2026 vs. December 2025

As we move into the new year, the January market statistics are giving us our first glimpse into what 2026 may hold for buyers and sellers across the greater Ogden area. While it’s typical to see a seasonal shift following the holidays, this year’s numbers reveal some meaningful trends worth noting.

Across Ogden Valley, inventory increased in both the single-family and condo markets as new listings came online in January. Although the number of closed sales dipped slightly month-over-month, median sold prices for single-family homes rose significantly — an indication that higher-end or larger properties made up a greater share of recent transactions. At the same time, the average price per square foot declined, reinforcing the idea that buyers are prioritizing size and overall value. Encouragingly for sellers, homes that did sell in January spent less time on the market than they did in December, suggesting that properly priced properties are still attracting strong interest and moving efficiently.

The condo market in Ogden Valley saw very limited sales activity in January, making median price comparisons less reliable month-to-month. However, the sharp drop in days on market points to continued demand for well-priced units. Buyers remain active in this segment but are clearly price conscious and selective in today’s environment.

In Mountain Green, the number of active listings increased substantially in January while the number of homes sold declined — another common seasonal trend. Despite this, median sold prices rose and homes that closed in January did so significantly faster than in December. Similar to Ogden Valley, a slight decrease in price per square foot indicates that larger homes were driving much of the recent activity.

The Ogden Bench market is showing signs of softening as we start the year. With more homes available and slightly fewer sales, both median sold price and price per square foot declined from December levels. Homes are also taking a bit longer to sell, pointing to growing pricing sensitivity among buyers and a gradual shift toward more balanced — or even buyer-leaning — conditions.

Meanwhile, North Ogden experienced growth in both inventory and closed sales in January. Median sold prices increased notably, even as the price per square foot declined. This again suggests that buyers are purchasing larger homes, but with more options available, negotiating leverage may be beginning to tilt in buyers’ favor. Days on market remained relatively steady month-over-month.

Overall, January brought an increase in available inventory across all local markets, paired with modestly slower sales activity in most areas. Median home prices held steady or increased in several segments, while declining price per square foot trends point to changing buyer preferences rather than weakening demand. For sellers, accurate pricing is becoming increasingly important as buyers grow more selective. For buyers, rising inventory and improved value metrics may create new opportunities as we head into the spring market.

Ogden Valley Area Real Estate Statistics for December Showed a Growing Awareness by Sellers of the Continuation of a Weak Market. 

December 2025 real estate statistics for the Ogden Valley, Mountain Green and Ogden Bench showed little change in median price or median price per sq. ft. for properties sold.  What did change was the removal of a significant number of properties from the market as sellers became frustrated with the weakness in the market.  Fewer properties sold in December than in November.

Single family homes on the market in the Ogden Valley dropped from 68 in November to 57 in December, and condos and townhomes from 37 to 33.  In Mountain Green properties for sale decreased from 36 to 19, along the Ogden Bench from 102 to 71,  and in North Ogden from 127 to 84.
