Today a West Jordan Home For Sale listing expired. Another Salt Lake Short Sale that wont sell. Last week, three possible Salt Lake home buyers asked me, "is this West Jordan Home For Sale Or Not?" It seems that the seller, or the listing agent, or both were making it so tough to even see this SLC short sale property that potential home buyers were absolutely turned off. As one lady that was looking for a West Jordan Rambler put it, "if these sellers are this difficult in a market like this, I sure don't want to start any negotiations with them". This is what I mean. 1. No for sale sign in yard or window.2. Appointments to show to be scheduled w/ agent by e-mail. No phone calls.3. Listing appointments 11:30 to 3:00 Mon. thru Friday. No Exceptions.!!!4. Absolutely no week end showings.5.... 02/20/2009

The Information on Salt Lake Foreclosures & Short Sales sold In West Jordan the last 30 days is a lot different than what we reported on in Herriman, and South Jordan. Those differences will make your story different as you put together justification for the lender on your Bank Owned Offer. Here's more Information about W.Jordan Foreclosures and Short Sales going back 30 days to help you or your Realtor build that story. The average age of 17 years makes them quite a bit older than the New Homes being foreclosed in some of the more southern parts of Salt Lake. Prices are less as well. The average listed price of a Bank Owned Home or Pre-Foreclosed house sold last month in West Jordan is $226,000 dollars. The actual price the home sold for was $215,000 dollars, a difference of a little ... 02/13/2009

Sales in West Jordan went down by about 30%. Average price of homes sold went down by just 2.17%, and median price went down by almost 3%. There are 6.62 months of inventory and plenty of homes to choose from. Currently, homes in West Jordan UT are priced at about 7% more than what they for last year.  These numbers are not official. 01/22/2009

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 listings and higher percent of new listings being SOLD.      SUMMARY Currently we are not seeing the needed positive price action (along with other indictors) to confirm a market bottom.  This is NOT a good time for conservative buyers to purchase.  High risk tolerant investors and speculators 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.  Also it is good to not... 01/18/2009

Salt Lake Homes For Sale In West Jordan!   Sunday I checked the Salt Lake MLS and found 685 homes for sale in West Jordan. That's about 9% of all the Salt Lake Homes for Sale. Ninety five of those listings are for condominiums, which would put West Jordan in 4th place in the Salt Lake Area for number of Condos for sale. W.Jordan is behind Salt Lake City, Draper, and Sandy in the number of condominiums listed. Based on the number of houses sold in West Jordan over the last 30 days (43) this is about a year and a half of single family home inventory. Definitely a buyers market. Actually it could be getting worse, as during that same period of time, only 46 houses were put under contract, while  3 times that number (138 homes and Condos ) were listed in W.J. What about distressed propertie... 01/14/2009

We still are having a low percent of new listings being SOLD.  Currently (8.30)% on a year over year, YTD comparison and we need positive % of listings sold, with positive price action to confirm market bottom. Please see data below.                                                                                  PRICE ACTION   Other good signs in addition to positive price action is lower DOM (days of the market) and lower new listings.             SUMMARY  Currently we are not seeing the needed positive price action to confirm a market bottom.  This is NOT a good time for conservative buyers to purchase.  High risk tolerant investors and speculators are doing some bottom fishing.

Situated in Gardner Historic Village, West Jordan, Utah are many country stores, art stores, galleries, Sweet Afton's Candies, (try the fudge) clothing shops, toy stores, and right out front in the old mill is Archibald's Restaraunt. Archibald's has something for most everyone. My favorite is the "Early Bird Special" For early seating you can order either Prime Rib or Monterey Chicken. Included with the special is warm fresh bread, soup or salad, a soft drink, your choice of potatoes, (baked, french fried, or even mashed with gravy) or rice. and a generous slice of carrot cake for dessert. They serve many different sandwiches, steak, halibut, fish & chips, many different chiken chicken dishes. Check out their menu by clicking here. I recommend a visit to Gardner Village, I'm not real bi... 10/20/2008

Real Estate in West Jordan was definitely slow during the first half of 2008. Lots of homes sold (664), but there are more mls listings on the market now (793) than all that were sold during the first half of the year. A lot of these homes will be on the market clear into 2009, especially the more expensive homes. Of the 664 homes that sold during the first half of the year, the average list price was $238,305. The current average list price of West Jordan MLS listings is $275,510. The median price of homes sold was $227900 vs. median list price at $256,455. The lower priced homes in West Jordan are selling best, so if you want your home to sell, price it lower.   07/12/2008

Vista Montana Condominiums,, my favorite West Jordan Ut, Condos are a Mecca for kids.   Of all ages. !! I mention that because a client that will be relocating to Utah in a couple of months e-mailed me that while she liked the looks and the price of the 3 bedroom units at Vista Montana, in West Jordan we'd better look at some other houses as she had two smaller children and thought maybe we catered more to the older set. ( I say we, because I live there you know). Must have been all the bragging about what is offered us "old folk"and I forgot to mention that during the summer the grand kids, mine and every one else's logs a lot of pool time. Today, Saturday, as I write this, I have counted about 20 youngsters descend on the club house for a kids party of some kind. Sounds real kid frien... 05/17/2008

West Jordan homes, new homes or used homes are the real heartbeat of the city. Actually, any home, in any city is what drives the engines that creates the quality of life weve come to expect. Before you decide I'm off my rocker, let me admit, that I know it's not really the house, it's the property taxes that house generates that fuels those engines. I'll also admit that it's not just the city, but the county as well, that relies on that money, and depends on the concept of taxing homes to provide all of the services we take for granted. Last week, Mayor David Newton wrote a great article that everyone should read. The article appeared in the West Jordan City Newsletter. It was titled  Property Tax 101, and it was written to let the folks of West Jordan know where their tax dollars were... 02/29/2008

Published 26 January 08 01:33 PM | Corie Seymour  Edit West Jordan Senior Services are among the best in the Salt Lake Valley. For residents of  Vista Montana Condominiums they're also real handy. The Senior Center is located about 500 yards from Vista Montana at 8025 So. 2200 West.  Many of our condo owners take advantage of the $2.00 lunch program, free bingo nights, an educational or craft offering and more than one of our seniors has saved money on car insurance by attending the AARP sponsored "Driver Safety Program". This year though, like last, the talk at Vista Montana is all about Monday evenings.  Beginning Feb. 4th at the senior center, AARP volunteers will be available to prepare income taxes Free of Charge for all seniors that register. The talk is unanimous, it's a wonderfu... 01/26/2008
