As we head into the heart of the home buying and selling season, many homeowners and prospective buyers are wondering:

What’s the market actually doing right now in Davis County?

The good news? We’ve got the numbers—and we’ll clarify what they mean for those looking to make a move this year.

Here’s what February 2025 tells us, and how you can use this insight to plan your next smart move.

**Note: While it’s now April, data typically reflects activity from one to two months prior. That’s because it can take time for agents to report finalized sales. February’s numbers still give us a good snapshot of where the Davis County market stands as we move into peak season.

📊 Key Takeaways from February 2025

According to the Utah Association of Realtors:

• New Listings are up slightly year-over-year, rising 1.9% in February and 5.1% year-to-date.
• Pending Sales are down significantly (–29.4% in February), reflecting buyer hesitation and tighter affordability.
• Closed Sales also declined by 23.2% in February, and by 26.7% year-to-date.
• Median Sales Price rose just 0.4% year-over-year in February, but is up 5.0% for the year so far.
• Inventory is up nearly 30% compared to last year, giving buyers more options.
• Days on Market increased from 57 to 64 days (up 12.3%), meaning homes are taking longer to sell.
• Months of Supply climbed from 1.9 to 2.7—a 42.1% jump—suggesting a shifting balance between buyer and seller expectations.

💡 What This Means for Sellers

If you’re thinking about listing this spring, you may be wondering:
“Is this still a good time to sell?”

Here’s our take:
✔️ Yes, but preparation is more important than ever.
Buyers have more choices, and homes are taking longer to sell. That means pricing, presentation, and promotionneed to be dialed in.

✔️ The median sales price is holding steady and even increasing slightly. That’s a sign of continued strength—especially for well-maintained, move-in-ready homes.

✔️ Competition is growing. Inventory is up nearly 30% year-over-year, so your home needs to stand out.

Bottom line: With smart positioning and the right strategy, sellers can still take advantage of current pricing and strong demand from motivated buyers.

💡 This Means for Buyers

Buyers are in a unique position right now:
✔️ You have more options. With inventory rising and homes sitting longer, there’s room to explore without the same urgency we saw in past years.

✔️ Price growth is moderating. The market is not racing ahead like it did during 2020–2022, giving you time to think and act strategically.

✔️ It’s still competitive, but differently. With fewer pending sales, some sellers may be more open to negotiation—especially if their home has been on the market for a while.

Bottom line: It’s a great time to revisit your pre-approval, understand what’s realistic, and prepare to act when the right opportunity appears.
