✓ You're in — see you next month.
Closed sales fell to 17 in July, down from 25 in June and roughly matching May's 17 — a third straight month where volume has failed to hold April's 28-sale pace. Buyers who did close paid close to asking, with the sale-to-list ratio at 99.83%, the tightest of the past six months, even as fewer of them showed up. The math suggests Stansbury Park isn't cooling on price — it's cooling on turnout, and rates near 6.8% are the likely reason.
Market pulse
Closed sales have swung from 12 in March to 28 in April, 17 in May, 25 in June, and back to 17 in July — a pattern with no clean direction, though July's total sits below the prior 12-month average of 19. Median days on market held at 33, matching June and well under February's 107. Active inventory eased slightly to 63 homes from June's 63 (unchanged) and May's 68, while new listings dropped to 22 in July from 27 in June. Sale-to-list ratio climbed to 99.83%, the highest of the past six months, showing that the homes that did sell were priced close to right.
Mortgage context
The 30-year averaged 6.19% back in February and has climbed each month since, reaching 6.79% in July before easing slightly to 6.78% in August. That's a 0.56 percentage point climb from February's low to today's spot rate of 6.75%, and it lines up with the drop in closings from April's 28 down to July's 17. Borrowing costs, not asking prices, look like the main drag on turnout this summer.
Payment math
A $535,000 median home here with 20% down runs $2,776 a month in principal and interest at today's 6.75% rate — unchanged from 30 days ago when the rate was also 6.75%, but $157 more than the $2,619 payment buyers locked in back in February 2026 when rates averaged 6.19%.
If you're buying
Closings dropped to 17 in July from 25 in June, and only 5 of those sold above list — the smallest share of over-list deals since spring. Target listings sitting past the 60-day mark, where price cuts are already showing up (11 of 17 July closings had a prior price reduction). Wild Horse Ranch and Stansbury Place have been the most active subdivisions all year; both are worth watching for repeat inventory as sellers there have shown willingness to negotiate.
If you're selling
With sale-to-list at 99.83% but volume down a third from June, price to last month's $541,000 median in the $400K-$700K band rather than reaching for June's numbers. Homes at Sagewood Village and The Reserve closed near asking in July, suggesting buyers are still there for well-priced product — but the pool thinned enough that overpricing risks a longer sit as days on market ticks past the current 33-day median. Consider that 11 of 17 July sales needed a price adjustment first; starting closer to market value skips that step.
Outlook
Expect closings to stay in the high teens to low 20s through late summer unless rates pull back from the current 6.75%-6.79% range. Inventory near 63 active homes gives buyers some room to negotiate on anything sitting past 60 days, but well-priced listings in the $400K-$700K band — where 16 of July's 17 sales landed — are still closing near asking. Warm, dry conditions typical of Tooele County summers should keep showing activity steady into September before the seasonal fall slowdown sets in.
Watch for
If closings keep running near 17-20 a month into the fall rather than rebounding toward the 25-28 range seen in April and June, expect active inventory to drift back above 65-70 as new listings outpace sales.

Common questions about Stansbury Park this month
Is Stansbury Park a buyer's or seller's market in July 2026? ▾
It's closer to balanced with a seller's edge on well-priced homes: the sale-to-list ratio hit 99.83% in July, the tightest of the past six months, meaning homes that were priced right sold near asking. But closings fell to 17 from June's 25, so there are fewer buyers competing for each listing than in spring.
Why did the number of home sales drop in Stansbury Park this July? ▾
Closings fell to 17 in July from 25 in June and 28 in April, likely tied to the 30-year rate climbing to a 6.79% monthly average in July from 6.19% in February. Higher borrowing costs appear to be thinning the buyer pool rather than pushing prices down.
Are home prices still rising in Stansbury Park? ▾
The median sale price reached $535,000 in July, up from $500,000 in June, but with only 17 sales this is a small sample and can swing month to month. Homes in the $400K-$700K band, which made up 16 of July's 17 sales, had a median of $541,000.
How much has the mortgage rate increase affected monthly payments in Stansbury Park? ▾
At today's 6.75% rate, financing the $535,000 median home with 20% down runs $2,776 a month in principal and interest. That's $157 more than the $2,619 payment at February 2026's 6.19% average rate, though it's unchanged from 30 days ago since the rate has held flat at 6.75%.
Which Stansbury Park neighborhoods are seeing the most activity? ▾
Ponderosa Estates, The Reserve Phase 3, and Sagewood Village Gardens each posted one sale in July, with no single subdivision dominating the way Wild Horse Ranch did earlier in the year. Wild Horse Ranch has been the most consistently active subdivision across 2026, with multiple closings in February, April, May, and June.
