Nationally, mortgage applications have hit a 25-year low as higher rates and Hurricane Ian reduce demand. A weekly survey by the Mortgage Bankers Association showed requests for purchase loans were down a seasonally adjusted 13 percent last week compared to the week before, and 37 percent from a year ago. Demand for refinancing was hit even harder, falling 18 percent from the previous week and 86 percent from a year ago.

In Park City, Utah, we saw six consecutive months where the average for days on market (DOM) was under 40. September 2022 saw the DOM jump back up to 67. Although quite an increase from the busy spring and summer, it was below last September at 76 DOM. The increase is likely due to typical seasonality and current market conditions, such as higher interest rates.

Even though inventory has been climbing (with a slight dip in September), it has still been challenging for buyers to find the right property. This September had 438 listings compared to last year at 245, a whopping increase of 79 percent. But, inventory is still quite low when you place that in context by comparing back to 806 residential listings in September 2019 and 858 in September 2018.

Activity is slower, but we would certainly not say things are slow. September had 105 closed sales, compared to 150 in September 2021. That is a decrease of 30 percent, but that is down from last year's frenzied pace. By comparison, September 2019 had 126 closed sales, and September 2018 only had 82 sales.
