Midway sellers wait 79 days as October's price cuts and thin listings collide

✓ You're in — see you next month.

Homes in Midway took a median 79 days to sell in October, up from 45 in September, even though the median home price rose to $1,100,000. That is the slow end of a balanced-to-buyer-friendly housing market: 98 homes were for sale, and sellers got 94.3% of list on average. A year ago the median sale price was $787,500 and homes closed in 35 days, so the pace has changed more than the price. The median list price of $874,500 sits well below what closed, which means the homes that sold were mostly pricier than what is currently listed.

Market pulse

Time to sell is the story. Median days on market went from 29 in April to 79 in October, and a quarter of October's homes took 128 days or longer. Listings grew from 69 in April to 98 in October, but new listings dropped to 12 in October from 27 in September, so fresh supply is drying up. Six of October's 15 closings took a price cut first, and only 2 sold above list.

Mortgage context

Eleven of October's 15 closings were above $700,000, so most buyers here are borrowing jumbo-sized loans where a rate change moves the payment by hundreds of dollars. Only 3 closed between $400,000 and $700,000, and one under $400,000. The 30-year rate has eased 0.375 percentage points in 30 days, which helps, but it is still a full point above April's average.

Payment math

Buying at Midway's $1,100,000 median home price with 20% down costs $6,078 a month in principal and interest at 7.375%, which is $226 less than 30 days ago at 7.75%, yet still $562 above the April low of $5,516 when rates averaged 6.42%.

If you're buying

Target homes that have already passed 80 days on market and ask for a price cut or seller-paid rate help; 12 of 15 closings went below list. In Swiss Oaks, three condos closed at a median $495,000 after 135 days, so that is where patience paid off. Sunburst Ranch had two sales at a median $956,500 after 108 days, a better entry point than the million-dollar-plus areas.

If you're selling

Your home's worth is set by what closed nearby, not by the $874,500 median list price, which is skewed by what happens to be listed. Expect about 94% of list and price accordingly, because homes that start high are collecting cuts. If you list in a pocket like Valais or Canyon View, where homes closed in 76 and 35 days, price sharply from day one.

Outlook

Winter will likely thin showings and new listings further, and the 98 homes already for sale will carry the market. Closings should stay in the low teens at best through January. If rates keep easing, the buyers who paused at 7.75% may return, which would help the lower-priced homes first.

Watch for

If new listings stay near October's 12 a month while closings hold around 15, supply would drop toward 5 months by January and the sale-to-list ratio could recover into the mid-95% range.
