Logan Real Estate Market Update – October Home Sales Down 55%

Posted by on Nov 3rd, 2010 in Uncategorized | 0 comments

During the third quarter, home sales in Cache County were down by more than 37%. That was in large part due to the expiration of the home buyer tax credits. Personally, I thought that during the fourth quarter we would start seeing some more normal home sale numbers. Well, it looks like from October’s home sales numbers I was wrong. Cache County home sales were down by more 54.55% last month compared with October of 2009. Reported thus far, just 45 residential homes have been reported as sold. This is the lowest month of home sales since January.

While 45, home sales is a low number for October, the 55% decline is a little misleading. The initial home buyer tax credit ended in November of last year, so there were very high home sales numbers during October of last year. From 2000 – 2004, October averaged 69 home sales each month. From 2005-2009, an average of 97 Cache County Homes sold each month.
