We need Positive Price Action to confirm market bottom. One month of price improve isn't sufficient to confirm the market bottom. We need to see appreciation month over month for three months.
PRICE ACTION
Other good signs in addition to positive price action is lower DOM (days of the market), lower new listings and higher percent of new listings being SOLD.
SUMMARY
Currently we are not seeing the needed positive price action (along with other indicators) to confirm a market bottom. This is NOT a good time for those with low and/or no risk tolerance to purchase.
High and medium risk tolerant investors are making buying decisions and are doing some bottom fishing.
Some are trying to time the market and market timing is risky. Trying to time the bottom is not for the inexperienced buyer and extremely difficult.
Those waiting for a market bottom confirmation will (almost always) miss the bottom. This is because confirming factors are lagging indicators.
Buy and hold is the best buying strategy.
Data considered accurate... However is NOT Guaranteed. Contact your Mark Watterson your Local Property Resource Specialist for the most up-to-date data and help to determine your specific risk tolerance.

Not far from Cottonwood Heights in Salt Lake Countyis another great little town known as Holladay and those that live there feel like it is a Holiday every day of the year, you can tell by the great smiles and friendly people there.
On July 29, 1847 pioneers known as the Mississippi Company, led by John Holladay, arrived in the Salt Lake Valley which is now in Salt Lake County. They discovered a free flowing, spring fed stream, most of the group went to the Fort in Great Salt Lake for the winter but two or three men built dugouts along this stream and wintered over. It became the first village established away from Great Salt Lake City itself. In the spring, many families went out to build homes and cultivate the land. There were plenty of springs and ponds, grasses and wild flowers, making this a desirable area to settle. John Holladay was named as the branch president of the Church (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, better know as the Mormons), thus the town became Holladay or Holladay's Burgh.
As homes were built and commerce arose as did commercial ventures. The intersection of Highland Drive
and Murray-Holladay Road, helped the community to grow, businesses tended to move east of the intersection of Holladay Boulevard and Murray-Holladay Road, the area became a popular place for residents to live. Neilson's Store and Harper-Bowthorpe Blacksmith Shop were well-frequented businesses for years. Agriculture, orchards and businesses allowed for continued growth over the years.
The Holladay and Cottonwoodcommunities became a desirable area to live, close to the mountains, fresh streams for irrigation, ideal or community growth. Today both Holladay and Cottonwood Heights in Salt Lake Countyare still desirable real estate, offering the same benefits as years ago along with great restaurants, recreational sites, facilities, great neighborhoods and schools.
