Riverton, UT

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 listingsand 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.

Getting Pre-Qualified is your first step when you Purchase a Utah County Home

The time has come to start shopping for a home to purchase. The first thing that you should do is to get pre-qualified for a Utah County home loan. It is very important to understand what your price range is prior to looking so you don't waste time looking at properties that are out of your price range.

Where do you begin?

Most Utah County Realtors work with a trusted network of Mortgage professionals, who can assist you in getting pre-approved for a loan so that you can comfortably begin looking at homes with the assurance that you can obtain the proper financing.

Generally, Utah County loan officers can help you with a pre-approval by getting some basic information (address, social security number, etc.) over the phone or Internet.

If you choose to purchase a new home, many builders have mortgage companies that will offer large incentives to use them.

Most Utah County Realtors prefer that their clients begin the loan process before they begin looking actively at homes, in order to best utilize your time as well as theirs. It also helps immensely having a pre-approval letter in hand when you are making an offer on your new home.

Utah County Foreclosure Properties, Short Sale, Bank Owned

Utah County Properties that are in distress usually are referred to as Foreclosures. Foreclosure usually happens for a number of different reasons. Few home owners choose to go into foreclosure voluntarily. It is often a result of one of the following:

· Loss of Job, laid-off, fired or just quit.

· Unable to work due to medical condition.

· Divorce

· Job transfer

· High debt, unable to make mortgage payments

Utah County Foreclosure property can be distributed to the public in a number of different ways. The first step usually takes place in the form of a Utah County Short Sale. The seller tries to negotiate a lower payoff to try and avoid credit report problems. When the seller is unable to negotiate a short sale, next the bank would take the property to public auction. If the bank is unable to sell the property at auction then they would try and sell the property to the public in the form of a Utah County Bank Owned sale.
