The Park City Board of REALTORS® has released annual statistics for Summit and Wasatch Counties. The 2017 year-end summary report indicates the overall real estate market continues to be healthy, steady, and growing at sustainable rates.

The number of single-family home transactions and the median sales price grew at 5% and 14% respectively over the past year. 84% of these sales occurred outside the Park City Limits, as primary home buyers’ demand for the Wasatch Back lifestyle increased. The number of condominium transactions and median sales price grew at 4% and 6% respectively from 2016 to 2017. Condominium sales grew at a slightly faster pace inside the Park City Limits than in other areas in Summit and Wasatch Counties.

You In Park City's Todd Anderson, President of the Park City Board of REALTORS® commented, “These growth rates are highly sustainable. We believe the real estate market in Summit and Wasatch Counties is balanced between buyers and sellers. That being said, the market could always use more inventory.”

Remember that these overall statistics are simply a snapshot at a moment in time and may not be representative of long-term trends.

Conclusions

At a 40,000-foot level, the Greater Park City Area real estate market looks healthy and steady. However, each micro-market needs to be understood apart from the overall market; simply reviewing the numbers is not suficient to understanding property value. Sales in individual markets can be influenced by a number of factors, including unique outlier sales that can heavily weight the statistics. In addition, amenities, property condition, floorplan, location, inventory, and new construction impact the numbers. The only sure way to fully understand the real estate market in Summit and Wasatch Counties is to contact a You In Park City Realtor®.

Park City Real Estate: Sales By Price

Park City Real Estate Sales: Activity by Price Point

We’re always watching Park City real estate market trends to see not just locations of where buyers are buying and sellers are selling – but at what prices. The following graphs reflect the sales results between 2015-17. Read through to learn what drove certain activities and note where anomalies occurred. This info may be helpful if you’re considering buying or selling a home so you can see how competitive or active the market will be for your targeted price range.

 

Single Family Homes:

  • Between 2015 and 2017, the Park City market had a yearly decline in the number of single-family homes sold in the <$750k range primarily because home prices went up! As a result, all the selling activity shifted up to the homes priced between $750k-$1m – making that the most active price point range, with the highest number of homes sold in 2017 at 125 units.
  • Following that same increase trend were single-family homes priced between $1.0m-$1.5m with 108 units, $1.5m-$2m with 78 units, and $2m-$2.5m with 46 units sold.
  • The number of homes sold at the $4m-$5m ranges declined slightly, but then numbers increased in the $5m-$7.5m range with 27units sold. Much of this shifting in each of these price points was again the result of “trading up” to newer properties. Of the homes sold in the $5m and above range, approximately 60% were ski in/ski out homes.
Side note: the least expensive true ski in/out (think “beach front property”) home sold at The Colony for $3.4m. (Although, it was just a guesthouse.) 

Condominiums:

  • It’s clear that 2015 was a big year in the <$500k price ranges, with 287 closed sales. The launch of Newpark Terrace in Kimball Junction was a big driver of this activity. We have yet to see that kind of volume since new building has been limited to smaller projects and has moved outside of Park City proper.
  • The $500k-$750k range had its best year in 2017 with 168 units sold, reflecting the increase in condo prices. There was a mix of subdivisions in this range, which shows that sellers may have been trading up mixed with new buyers in the area.
  • Although the numbers are small for higher price point condos, 2017 had its highest number of units sold in the $2.5m-$3.5m ranges with 23 units and 18 units sold respectively, and in the $5m-$7.5m range with 10 units sold.
Side note… 2018 promises to see several newly built projects within the Snyderville area with Apex and Viridian rolling out by late Spring. These will have higher price points starting in the high-700’s.
