Utah home sales started the year down from 2024 while the median sales price increased slightly. Inventory jumped more than 18%, giving buyers more choices during the home-shopping process, but high mortgage rates continued to hurt affordability.
"More housing supply allows strongly qualified buyers to enter the market," said Lawrence Yun, chief economist of the National Association of REALTORS® in a press release about existing U.S. home sales. "But for many consumers, both increased inventory and lower mortgage rates are necessary for them to purchase a different home or become first-time homeowners."
A new Salt Lake Board of Realtors report expects interest rates to remain between 6% and 7% in 2025 with a modest increases in Salt Lake home sales and prices.

Utah ended 2024 with home sales increasing nearly 7% compared to 2023. The final three months of the year had the highest gains with sales up 15% for the fourth quarter. Sales rose about 13% in December alone.
"Home sales in the final months of the year showed solid recovery despite elevated mortgage rates," said NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun in a press release about U.S. existing home sales. "Home sales during the winter are typically softer than the spring and summer, but momentum is rising with sales climbing year-over-year for three straight months. Consumers clearly understand the long-term benefits of homeownership. Job and wage gains, along with increased inventory, are positively impacting the market."
