Ogden's housing market picked up in October. Closings rose 14% to 98 from 86 in September, and the median home price was $370,163. Buyers still have the edge, though: active listings reached 433, up from 249 a year ago, and a typical home took 41 days to sell. Sale-to-list came in at 98.6%, so sellers are getting close to asking, but at the current pace it would take about 4.5 months to sell everything listed.
Market pulse
Supply has done the most moving. Active listings climbed from 267 in April to 433 in October. New listings dropped to 109 in October from 134 in September, so the list is growing because homes sit, not because sellers rushed in. Midtown Village was the busiest area with 8 closings at a median $375,163 and 55 days on market. Closings have bounced between 86 and 114 since July, a steadier pace than the spring.
Mortgage context
Ogden's market sits mostly below $400,000, and that is where borrowing costs matter. Of October's 98 closings, 64 were under $400,000 at a median $328,700, while only 5 were above $700,000. The 30-year rate has eased 0.375 percentage points over the past 30 days, which gives entry-level buyers a little relief.
Payment math
Buying at Ogden's $370,000 median home price with 20% down means a $2,045 monthly payment of principal and interest at 7.375%, which is $76 less than the $2,122 at 7.75% thirty days ago, yet still $189 above April's $1,856 low when rates averaged 6.42%.
If you're buying
Focus on homes that have already sat 55 days or more, which is how long Midtown Village sales took in October. Of the 98 closings, 49 sold below list and 53 had a price change first, so ask for a reduction or seller-paid rate help. Homes in the $400,000 to $700,000 range sold in a median 32 days, so expect less give there.
If you're selling
What your home is worth tracks what has closed nearby, and the median list price of $359,900 sits below the $370,163 median sale price. Homes closed at 98.6% of list in October, so pricing within a point or two of recent sales still works. With 433 competitors, an overpriced listing will likely end up with a price cut, as 53 closings did this month.
Outlook
Showings and new listings normally thin out in November and December, which could trim the 433 active listings if sellers pull back. Closings may ease from October's 98. Rates falling from last month's 7.75% would help, but the listing count will likely keep buyers in a stronger position.
Watch for
If new listings stay near 109 a month while closings slip back toward 86, months of supply would climb from about 4.5 toward 5 by January.
