Although $/FT2 is not a perfect measure, this metric provides a good view of the market overall, and helps to identify trends. Listed below is annual data providing a historical snapshot of the Ogden Valley condominium real estate market. A large percentage of recent sales in 2009 are distressed, meaning many are short sales, REO or bank-owned properties.

2002 $114/FT2
2003 $102/FT2
2004 $145FT2
2005 $173/FT2

I wanted to provide an update to the information I posted back in July regarding the status of the Ogden Valley real estate market. The results of the last few months continue to support what I feel represents a bottoming, and new baseline for the Ogden Valley real estate market.
Although $/FT2 is not a perfect measure, this metric provides a good view of the market overall, and helps to identify trends. Listed below is annual data providing a historical snapshot of the Ogden Valley real estate market. As you can see, the period 2002-2004 serves as a good baseline, when SFH home sales prices were very stable. A large percentage of recent sales in 2009 are distressed, meaning many are short sales, REO or bank-owned properties. This is a good test for any real estate market.
Year AVG $/FT2
2000 $90/FT2
2001 $78/FT2
2002 $85/FT2
2003 $84/FT2
2004 $89/FT2
2005 $110/FT2
2006 $150/FT2
2007 $150/FT2
2008 $154/FT2
* January - March 2009 $134/FT2
* April - June 2009 $93/FT2
* July - September 2009 $93/FT2
* October 2009 (10 SFH sold to date) $104/FT2
Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can answer any questions or provide additional information.

Just my opinion, but I believe the Ogden Valley (Eden, Liberty, Huntsville) single family home market has finally reached the bottom. I base this on several months of what appears to be support on a $/FT2 basis.
I typically use 2004 as the baseline year, and recent home sales (since April of 2009) have been running very close to that baseline.
Following is a rundown since 2000. Figures below represent home sales on a $/FT2 basis for the full calendar year:
Year $/FT2
2000 $90.16
2001 $78.22
2002 $85.21
2003 $83.99
2004 $88.82
2005 $109.72
2006 $150.25
2007 $150.32
2008 $154.06
*2009 $91.64
* April 1, 2009 through July 19, 2009
I have monthly sales statistics and graphs to back this up if anyone is interested.
Thanks,

Although the excellent video segments from "UTAH LIVING WITH FIRE" and "Firewise Landscaping For Utah" (links below) were produced and designed for Utah, these are an excellent source of information for anyone living in what is referred to as the "wildland-urban interface", especially those of us who live in the western U.S. The video segments total over an hour of worthwhile information to help all of us better understand what each of us living "in nature" should be doing to minimize the risk of losing our homes (and our neighbors' homes) to wildfire. Most important... this is something all of us should be doing to help the firefighters, police, and other professionals who devote their careers and lives to keeping us all safe!
