The average sales price remains lower than in the past and is around $224,,000 with an average of 90-95 days on the market. The Layton East Bench is still demanding higher prices, although down from the past year. Layton is a great area for buyers and the price of homes is still a great value. Even with the numbers falling slightly Mortgage rates continue to be at a all time low. With the new tax credits, there could not be a better time to buy. Between low interest rates, the $8000 Stimulus Package, Home Run Grant 2 and homes listed at such great values, now is the time to buy. You need to remember that this is still a good market, compared to what we are seeing throughout the Nation. The impact of the major bailout by the Government of the Financial Institutions and other major players in the market have raised concerned over the economy and Real Estate Market. Utah still remains to be one the most desired places to live and buyers are still coming to the area, due to a lot of major corporations relocating their companies here. Jobs are good and the pay rate is good as well. Layton is still a very desired area along the Wasatch Front and remains a popular location due to its proximity to Salt Lake and Ogden.
