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.

Utah Home Buyers Beware - Yield Spread Premium (YSP)
As a Loan Officer and Realtor I have noticed an area of Home Loans and Mortgages that goes unnoticed by the consumer, that of Yield Spread Premium. Most borrowers believe that their Loan Officer makes his profit with the Loan Origination Fee. But most don't understand that the Loan Officer can make up to 4 percent more, on most loans, with the Yield Spread Premium.
What is Yield Spread Premium?
Yield Spread Premium, or YSP, is the fee paid by the Lender to the broker in exchange for a higher interest rate, or an above wholesale rate. The borrower may qualify for a certain rate, but the broker can charge this fee and give the borrower a slightly higher rate to make more commission. YSP was originally intended as a way for the borrowers to avoid having to pay any money up front. Today it is seen primarily as just another fee the borrower gets stuck with. The YSP is disclosed by law on the Good Faith Estimate. Usually the YSP is stated as between 0 and 4 percent, at the bottom in fine print.
What can Borrowers Do?
The best way to understand YSP is to discuss the topic with your Mortgage Loan Officer. Make sure he/she explains the difference between Loan Origination and YSP, and continues to keep you informed up to and including closing.
