A Seller’s Market in Jeremy Ranch? Buyer Demand Continues to Rise, What Does This Mean for Prices?

Jeremy Ranch Park City Real Estate Market Update | August 2024 Trends and Opportunities

Welcome back, Park City real estate enthusiasts! Today, we’re diving deep into the August 2024 real estate market update for Jeremy Ranch, one of Park City’s most desirable neighborhoods. Whether you’re looking to buy or sell, you’re going to want to hear these numbers because the market has seen some dramatic shifts over the past year.

A Seller’s Market in Jeremy Ranch

The Jeremy Ranch real estate market has firmly shifted into a seller’s market this year. In August 2024, the number of active listings plummeted by an incredible 54.2%, compared to August 2023. Last year, we had 24 homes on the market—now we only have 11. This drop in inventory has created a surge in competition for buyers, which is excellent news if you’re thinking about selling your home in Jeremy Ranch. With fewer homes available, sellers have a clear advantage when it comes to price negotiations and closing deals quickly.

Buyer Demand Continues to Rise

Despite the lower inventory, the number of sold listings has increased by 33.3%. That means more homes are being sold, even with fewer on the market. For buyers, this indicates strong demand and a need to act fast when they find the right property. Last year, we saw only three homes sell in August, but this year, that number jumped to four.

This tells us that buyers are not backing down—people are still eager to invest in Jeremy Ranch, and for good reason. With its stunning views, proximity to world-class skiing, and luxurious homes, it’s no wonder this neighborhood is so highly sought after.

What Does This Mean for Prices?

Here’s where things get interesting: the median price per square foot has actually decreased by 6.8%, from $554.32 in 2023 to $516.63 this year. While this may seem surprising in a seller’s market, it could be an indication that buyers are becoming more price-conscious, even as demand remains high.

For buyers, this could mean you’ll find a better deal on square footage, especially if you’re patient and willing to wait for the right property to pop up. However, with inventory this low, don't wait too long—properties are moving faster than before.

Homes Are Taking Longer to Sell

Another important shift is the median days on market, which has surged by an incredible 850%! In 2023, homes were selling in just five days, while now they are sitting on the market for around 47 days. This doesn’t mean homes aren’t selling—it’s likely a reflection of sellers pricing more aggressively or buyers taking a bit longer to make decisions in a competitive market.

What Does This Mean For You?

If you're a seller, this is an excellent time to take advantage of the low inventory and strong demand. The market is in your favor, and you can potentially sell your home quickly and for top dollar.

For buyers, while the competition may be tough, there are still some great opportunities out there. Homes may be staying on the market a little longer, so don’t be afraid to negotiate, but be ready to move fast when the right one comes along.
