✓ You're in — see you next month.

Sixteen homes closed in Holladay in September, well under the 27 a month the city averaged over the prior year, so treat the price numbers with care. Of the homes that did sell, the median home price was $875,768, and the housing market tilts toward buyers: 154 homes were for sale, up from 92 a year ago. At September's pace it would take about 9.5 months to sell everything listed. Closings fell 27% from August's 22.

Market pulse

Supply is the bigger movement here. Active listings grew from 81 in April to 154 in September. Closings went the other way, from 28 in May down to 16. New listings held near 50 a month, so homes are arriving faster than they leave. Sale-to-list was 97.9% in September, and just 2 of 16 homes sold above asking.

Mortgage context

Holladay's buyers are mostly in six-figure-premium territory, with 12 of September's 16 closings above $700,000, so a rate move hits them in dollars fast. Smaller loans on the three sales between $400,000 and $700,000 feel it less. The 30-year rate near 7.5% is likely part of why fewer buyers closed this month.

Payment math

Put 20% down on the $876,000 median home and the monthly principal and interest is $4,899 at 7.5%, which is $179 more than the $4,720 it would have been 30 days ago at 7.125%, and $507 above April's low, when rates averaged 6.42% and the payment would have been $4,392.

If you're buying

Go after homes that have already taken a price cut: 6 of September's 16 closings did. The over-$700,000 range, where 12 sales closed at a median $944,175 in 12 days, is where sellers still hold firm, so ask for seller-paid rate buydowns there. Aspire at Holladay Hills had two sales at a median $867,202 in 4 days, so newer homes there move quickly.

If you're selling

With 154 homes competing, buyers paid about 97.9% of list in September, so set your asking price with that gap in mind. The median list price of $860,006 is close to the $875,768 median sale price, which means pricing near recent sales still works. If your home is a resale in Holladay Hills or near Walker Woods, expect buyers to compare it with a lot of nearby inventory.

Outlook

October through December is typically slower, and with rates at 7.5% listings may keep building into winter. Fewer than 20 closings a month would push the supply past 9 months. Sellers who need to move should price in the first two weeks, before the holidays.

Watch for

If closings stay near 16 a month and new listings stay near 51, inventory would pass 10 months of supply by December and sale-to-list would probably slip toward 97%.

Start with the median sale price of $875,768 in September 2026 and a sale-to-list ratio of 97.9%. Homes that closed took a median of 12 days. Your own home's value depends on recent sales of similar homes nearby, so a comparison of those is the best guide.

Are Holladay home prices going up or down? ▾

September's median of $875,768 is up from $841,944 a year ago, but with 16 sales the median is a noisy reading. The month-to-month jump from August's $733,700 reflects which homes happened to close more than a true shift. Inventory growth is the stronger signal for prices ahead.
