Don't you want to buy in Springville?

For the first half of 2008, 115 homes sold in Springville. These homes had a median list price of $185,000 and an average price at just over $200,000. These homes really seem pretty affordable, so why aren't more homes selling?

Sure the economy is struggling, gas prices are ridiculous and financing is more difficult to obtain, but Utah County is still growing and people need places to live. One of the other reason homes in Springville aren't selling is because they are just too expensive. Currently there are 303 residential homes for sale in Springville. These listings have a median price of $225,000 (18% higher than the median sold price), and an average price at $293,000 (30% higher than average sld price). The bulk of the houses for sale are priced higher than what the average person is able and willing to buy, and in the near future this is not likely too change much.

On the positive, in the last two weeks the number of residential listings in Springville has actually decreased. If this number continues to go down the Springville real estate market won't be so weak.
