The headline number in Ogden's June 2026 report is 13 — the median days on market, down from 17 in May and a fraction of the 50-day reading posted in February. That speed tells you something real: the homes that did sell found buyers quickly. What it doesn't tell you is that only 63 homes closed in June, compared to 99 in June 2025 — a 36% drop in volume year over year. More listings arrived (177 new in June vs. 99 a year ago), active inventory reached 311, and the median sold price climbed to $403,496 — well above the $364,990 median list price, a gap that reflects a mix of higher-end closings pulling the sold median up rather than across-the-board overbidding.
Market pulse
Median days on market has traced a dramatic arc since winter: 50 days in February, compressing to 29 in March, 16 in April, 17 in May, and now 13 in June — the fastest typical close in the six-month window. Yet the sale-to-list ratio slipped to 98.46% in June, down from 98.75% in May and 99.58% in March, meaning sellers are giving back a little more ground at the table even as homes move quickly. Active inventory reached 311 in June, up from 263 in May and 246 in April — the highest count in the six-month window — while new listings hit 177, nearly double June 2025's 99. The combination of more supply and fewer closings pushed the time it would take to sell every listed home to about five months at June's pace, up from roughly three months in March and April.
Mortgage context
The 30-year fixed rate has moved steadily higher since February's 6.14% monthly average — through 6.48% in March, 6.55% in May, and 6.66% in June — and the current spot rate sits at 6.875%, up 0.125 percentage points over the past 30 days. That climb has added real dollars to monthly payments for Ogden buyers, and it's a credible part of the story behind June's lighter closing volume. FHA financing at 6.375% and VA loans at 6.5% remain the more accessible paths for buyers who qualify, particularly in the under-$400K segment where 31 of June's 63 closings landed.
Payment math
At $403,000 — June's median sale price — a buyer putting 20% down finances $322,400 and carries a monthly principal-and-interest payment of $2,121 at today's 6.875% rate, which is $27 more than the same loan would have cost 30 days ago at 6.75%, and $157 above the February low when rates averaged 6.14% and that payment would have been $1,964.
If you're buying
With 311 active listings and only 63 closings last month, Ogden has more negotiating room than the 13-day median suggests — the speed reflects well-priced homes, not a shortage of options. Target listings past 30 days on market, particularly in the $400K–$700K band where 26 homes closed at a median of $433,000 and sellers in that range have shown willingness to deal; Nob Hill and The Meadows at River Bend both had June closings in that band worth using as recent comparable sales anchors. If you're financing with a conventional loan, run the numbers on FHA at 6.375% — on a $400K purchase the rate difference versus the 6.875% conventional rate is meaningful over a 30-year term.
If you're selling
The 13-day median is real, but it belongs to the homes that priced correctly — 34 of June's 63 closings went below list price, and 21 sellers had already cut their price before closing. Price to where similar homes actually sold, not to the active shelf: the median list price of $364,990 on active inventory sits well below the $403,496 median sold price, which means the active shelf skews toward lower-priced listings that haven't moved. If your home is in the Nob Hill or Henderson area, recent comparable sales in the $405K–$425K range give you a credible anchor — but condition and presentation matter more now that buyers have 311 choices.
Outlook
Inventory will likely keep building through July and August as new listings continue at the spring pace and closings remain below last year's levels — buyers along the Wasatch Front corridor from Layton to Ogden have more options than they've had in over a year. Rates averaging 6.66% in June and trending toward 6.79% in July (per the monthly average trajectory) will keep some move-up buyers on the sidelines, which means the under-$400K segment — where Hill AFB employees and first-time buyers concentrate — stays the most competitive slice of the market. Sellers who list in July with sharp pricing should still find buyers quickly; those who test the top of the range may find themselves waiting as the active count grows.
Watch for
At the current pace of new listings running near 177 per month against roughly 63 closings, active inventory could reach 400 homes by September — and if that happens, the sale-to-list ratio likely drifts toward the low-97% range, giving buyers meaningfully more leverage than June's 98.46% already suggests.
"Faster closings, lighter volume, more choices: Ogden's June split the market in three directions at once."
Common questions about Ogden this month
Is Ogden a buyer's or seller's market in June 2026? ▾
It's closer to balanced, leaning toward buyers. Homes that are priced well still close in about two weeks, but 311 active listings and only 63 closings means buyers have real choices. More than half of June's closings went below list price, which tells you sellers aren't holding all the cards.
Why did so few homes close in June if days on market are so low? ▾
The 13-day median reflects the homes that found buyers — it doesn't count the listings that sat without offers. With 177 new listings arriving and only 63 closings, a growing share of the active shelf is waiting. The fast closings belong to well-priced homes; the rest are contributing to the inventory build.
Are home prices rising or falling in Ogden right now? ▾
The June median sold price of $403,496 is up from $385,000 in May and $361,000 in June 2025, but some of that reflects a higher share of upper-end closings rather than broad appreciation. The $400K–$700K band closed at a median of $433,000, and six homes above $700K closed at a median of $864,603 — those pull the overall median up. The under-$400K segment, where most volume sits, closed at a median of $320,000.
How are mortgage rates affecting Ogden buyers in June 2026? ▾
The 30-year rate has climbed from 6.14% in February to 6.875% today, adding $157 a month to the principal-and-interest payment on a median-priced home compared to February's low. That's a real affordability hit, and it's a credible reason why closing volume is running well below last year's pace. Buyers who qualify for VA or FHA financing — common among Hill AFB households — have access to rates of 6.5% and 6.375% respectively, which helps at the margins.
Which Ogden neighborhoods are seeing the most activity in June 2026? ▾
Nob Hill, Henderson, and The Meadows at River Bend each had multiple closings in June. Nob Hill homes closed at a median of $405,300 in about 22 days — consistent with its activity in March and May as well, making it one of the more reliably active pockets in the market. Henderson closings came in at a median of $424,500 in 14 days, suggesting strong demand in that corridor.
