April 2026 brought a clear upturn in closed sales for Roosevelt, with 11 homes sold — up from just 4 in March and matching the pace of April 2025's 9 closings. The median sale price reached $385,000, a 15% gain over April 2025's $334,900, while median days on market fell sharply from 65 in March to 24 in April, signaling that buyers who had been sitting out the winter returned with more urgency. Active inventory held nearly steady at 43 homes, up from 42 in March, keeping supply measured rather than loose.
Market pulse
Closed sales in Roosevelt moved from a winter trough of 4 in both December 2025 and March 2026 to 11 in April, matching the 11 closings recorded in November 2025. Median days on market dropped from 65 in March to 24 in April — the fastest absorption pace since May 2025's 14-day median — with the under-$400K band clearing in a median of just 14 days. The sale-to-list ratio pulled back to 98.74% from March's 100.96%, suggesting that while demand picked up, buyers regained a small measure of negotiating room compared to the brief seller-favored window in March. Active inventory has climbed steadily from 28 homes in November 2025 to 43 in April 2026, providing more selection without tipping into oversupply — absorption sits at 3.91 months, a balanced reading for this market.
Mortgage context
The 30-year fixed rate now sits at 6.625%, up 0.375 points over the past 30 days from 6.25%, adding real cost to every purchase in Roosevelt. Rates have climbed 0.43 percentage points from February's monthly average of 6.19% — the softest point of the past six months — meaning buyers who waited for a rate dip are now facing a meaningfully higher payment. The monthly average has moved from 6.19% in February to 6.42% in April and 6.51% in May, a trajectory that is compressing the pool of qualified buyers at the lower end of Roosevelt's price range.
Payment math
On a median-priced home today, P&I lands at $1,972/mo at 6.625% — $76/mo more than 30 days ago at 6.25%, and $88/mo above the February low when rates averaged 6.19% and P&I would have been $1,884.
If you're buying
Target homes in The Meadows and Cobble Drive neighborhoods that have been listed past 45 days — the sale-to-list ratio on slower-moving inventory is running closer to 96–97%, giving you room to negotiate below ask. In the $400K–$700K band, where the median DOM was 44 days in April, properties in Sunrise Knolls and Mountain View Acres are sitting long enough that a 2–3% price reduction request is defensible with recent comps. Lock a rate sooner rather than later: the 30-day climb of 0.375 points has already added $76/mo to a median-priced purchase, and the May monthly average of 6.51% suggests further pressure ahead.
If you're selling
Price to the current market, not to March's brief 100.96% sale-to-list spike — that reading came on only 4 closings and is not a reliable benchmark for April's broader pool of buyers. Homes in Roosevelt Fields and Emerald Hills that are priced within 2% of recent sold comps are clearing in under 30 days; those priced to last year's optimism are sitting well past 60. With the 30-year rate at 6.625% and climbing, your buyer pool narrows at every $25,000 increment above $400K, so condition and pricing precision matter more than they did six months ago.
Outlook
Over the next 60–90 days, Roosevelt typically sees its strongest new-listing activity as snowmelt and the end of Duchesne County's mud season open up access to properties on the bench and outlying roads — expect new inventory to remain in the 14–16 range per month, consistent with March and April. If the 30-year rate holds above 6.5%, the under-$400K segment will likely continue to clear quickly while the $400K–$700K band — where DOM already ran 44 days in April — faces longer sit times. Buyers relocating from the Wasatch Front, particularly those priced out of Utah County markets like Heber City or Provo, remain a steady demand source for Roosevelt's relative affordability.
Watch for
If the 30-year rate crosses 7%, expect the $400K–$700K price band in Roosevelt to see DOM stretch past 75 days and the sale-to-list ratio in that segment to slip below 96%, as the buyer pool for that range in Duchesne County is thin even at current rates.

Common questions about Roosevelt this month
Is Roosevelt a buyer's or seller's market in April 2026? ▾
It's a balanced market leaning slightly toward sellers in the under-$400K segment. Homes priced below $400K cleared in a median of 14 days in April with a 98.74% sale-to-list ratio, leaving little room to negotiate. Above $400K, the median DOM was 44 days, giving buyers more leverage — particularly on homes that have been listed for 6 weeks or more.
How many homes are for sale in Roosevelt right now? ▾
Active inventory stood at 43 homes in April 2026, up from 42 in March and 32 in January. That's a gradual build from the winter low of 28 in November 2025. At the current pace of 11 closings per month, that represents roughly 3.9 months of supply — a balanced level, not a glut.
Are home prices rising in Roosevelt? ▾
The April 2026 median sale price was $385,000, up from $334,900 in April 2025 — a gain of about 15% year over year. However, monthly medians in this market fluctuate with the mix of homes sold, so a single month's reading should be read alongside the trend: the average sale price has ranged from $257,750 in December 2025 to $449,056 in January 2026, reflecting how much the price mix shifts when volumes are small.
What does the mortgage rate increase mean for buyers in Roosevelt? ▾
At today's 6.625% rate, the principal-and-interest payment on a $385,000 home is approximately $1,972/mo — $88/mo more than it would have been at February's 6.19% average. That gap is meaningful in a market where many buyers are stretching to reach the $350K–$450K range. FHA financing at 6.0% and VA loans at 6.25% remain meaningfully cheaper for eligible buyers and are worth exploring in this rate environment.
Which neighborhoods in Roosevelt are selling fastest? ▾
In April 2026, Cobble Drive (5 days on market) and the Golf Course subdivision (9 days) led the pace, both in the $395K–$500K range. The Meadows, a recurring top performer, moved two homes in a median of 10 days at a median sale price of $233,500 — the most affordable segment clearing the fastest. Sunrise Knolls and Mountain View Acres Minor took longer at 24 and 64 days respectively, consistent with the broader pattern of slower movement above $490K.
