Homes that sold in North Ogden this July closed in a median 6 days, down from 49 in June and the fastest pace in the past six months. But only 16 homes closed — half of June's already-thin 20 and well below the 32 that sold in July 2025 — so that speed reflects a handful of well-matched deals more than a broad shift in demand. The homes that did sell fetched a median $575,000, and buyers paid over asking on six of them, pushing the sale-to-list ratio to 102.83%.
Market pulse
The past six months have swung between a slow winter, a spring volume run (35 sales in April, 36 in May), and now a summer pullback to 20 in June and 16 in July. Median days on market followed the same rollercoaster: 67 in February, down to 13 in May, back up to 49 in June, then down to 6 in July. Active listings haven't followed that pattern — they've climbed every month since April, from 87 to 101 to 123, even as fewer homes close each month. New listings held near 42 in July, about the same as May and June, so the growing shelf is really a function of slower sales, not a rush of new sellers.
Mortgage context
The 30-year mortgage rate climbed from 6.19% in February to 6.79% in July's monthly average, and now sits at 6.875% today, up 0.25 percentage points from 6.625% just 30 days ago. That's a fast move on top of an already-rising six-month trend, and it likely explains why closed volume keeps thinning even as the homes that do close move quickly.
Payment math
At $575,000 with 20% down, a North Ogden buyer is financing $460,000 at 6.875% today, which runs $3,022 a month in principal and interest — $76 more than the $2,945 payment 30 days ago at 6.625%, and $208 above the $2,814 payment from February's 6.19% rate low.
If you're buying
Sixteen closings this month means your negotiating leverage depends on which price band you're in — the under-$400K tier only had one sale, so don't expect much room there. In the $400K-$700K band, homes are moving in a median 6 days with a 102.83% sale-to-list ratio, so come in ready to compete, not lowball. If you can wait past Labor Day for more of August's building 123-home shelf to get picked over, some of that inventory may soften on price.
If you're selling
A 102.83% sale-to-list ratio and a 6-day median this July means well-priced homes are still getting bid up — price at or slightly under recent sales like the $939,900 close at Ward Farms and the $787,500 sale at North Oaks Cove to invite that kind of competition. But watch the shelf: active listings hit 123, up from 101 in June and 84 in May, so a home that doesn't move in the first two weeks risks getting lost in that pile. Don't chase June's slower comps — July's pricing power belongs to homes that hit the market fresh.
Outlook
With rates near 6.875% and climbing into August's 6.88% average, expect closed volume to stay thin through late summer as higher payments keep some buyers on the sidelines. Sellers with well-priced homes in the $400K-$700K band should still see quick sales given July's 102.83% ratio, but the growing 123-home shelf means overpriced listings will sit. Watch whether new listings pick up after Labor Day — if they don't, months-of-supply keeps building even with sales this slow.
Watch for
If active inventory keeps climbing at July's pace — up from 84 in May to 101 in June to 123 in July — while only 16 to 20 homes close each month, months-of-supply likely pushes past 8 by October even without the absorption math looking that extreme yet.

Common questions about North Ogden this month
Is North Ogden a buyer's or seller's market in July 2026? ▾
It leans toward sellers for well-priced homes — the sale-to-list ratio hit 102.83% and homes moved in a median 6 days. But with only 16 closings and active listings up to 123, that strength is concentrated in the homes that are priced right, not the market broadly.
Why did North Ogden home sales slow down so much in July? ▾
Closings fell to 16 from 20 in June and 36 in May, likely tied to the 30-year rate climbing to a 6.79% monthly average in July and 6.875% today. Higher borrowing costs appear to be thinning the buyer pool even as the homes that do sell move fast.
What did homes sell for in North Ogden this July? ▾
The median sale price was $575,000, up from $477,200 in June, though with only 16 sales this figure can swing based on which price bands closed. Five of those sixteen were over $700,000, including a $939,900 sale at Ward Farms and an $870,000 sale at Northview Estates.
How much has the 30-year mortgage rate affected North Ogden buyers? ▾
Rates climbed from a February low of 6.19% to 6.875% today, adding $208 a month to the payment on a median $575,000 home. Just in the last 30 days, the rate rose from 6.625% to 6.875%, adding $76 a month to that same payment.
Should I expect more homes to come on the market in North Ogden this fall? ▾
New listings have held steady around 39-44 a month since April, so the growing inventory (123 active listings in July versus 84 in May) is more about slower sales than a rush of new sellers. Watch for a typical fall pullback in new listings, which could ease the buildup if closings pick back up.
