Waiting got longer in Kamas in October, when the median home took 43 days to sell, up from 23 in September. The median home price for the 12 closings was $917,500, while the median asking price was $1,374,500. That gap is wide, so buyers and sellers should go by what has closed, and the 94.3% sale-to-list ratio shows homes sold about 6% under asking. It is a buyer-leaning housing market, with 120 homes for sale and about 10 months of supply at the current pace.
Market pulse
Kamas had 49 homes for sale in April. By October that was 120, and the count has risen every month since. New listings jumped from 11 in September to 25 in October, so supply is still being added. Days on market split by price. Homes over $700,000 took a median 84 days, while the four sales in the $400,000 to $700,000 range took 27. Deer Mountain Resort's two sales took a median 118 days at $1,555,000, while Francis Commons' two sales took 40 days at $470,000.
Mortgage context
Eight of October's 12 closings were above $700,000, a range where the loan balance, not the rate alone, drives the monthly bill. Those buyers did get some relief, since the 30-year rate has eased from 7.75% thirty days ago to 7.375%. The four closings in the $400,000 to $700,000 range, at a median $504,470, are the ones most sensitive to payment changes.
Payment math
Buying at the $918,000 median home price with 20% down costs $5,070 a month in principal and interest at 7.375%, which is $189 less than the $5,258 at 7.75% thirty days ago, but still $469 above the April low of $4,601 when rates averaged 6.42%.
If you're buying
Look at homes above $700,000 that have already been listed for 84 days or more, since that is where the median sale took the longest. Beaver Creek at Kamas closed at $1,050,000 after 138 days, and Grassy Creek closed at $810,000 after 133. Three of October's 12 homes took a price cut first, so ask about a cut or seller-paid rate help before you offer.
If you're selling
What your home is worth comes from what closed nearby, not from the $1,374,500 median asking price. Nine of 12 sales closed below list. Under $700,000 the pace is quicker, so Francis Commons-style homes priced near $470,000 are selling in about 40 days. If you are above $700,000, expect a longer wait and price for it from day one.
Outlook
Showings and new listings usually thin out through November and December, and Kamas has 120 homes for sale to work through first. With rates easing from 7.75% to 7.375%, buyers may come back slowly, but the wait on higher-priced homes is unlikely to shorten much before spring. Sellers who list near Heber City-area competition should price against the 94.3% sale-to-list ratio.
Watch for
If new listings stay near 25 a month while closings stay near 12, the count of homes for sale would pass 130 by January and months of supply would rise above 10.
