Is the Market in St. George Slowing Too Much to Sell My Home?

If you’ve seen headlines saying home sales are down compared to last year, you might be wondering: “Is now even a good time to sell?”

Here’s the truth: While the market isn’t as fast-paced as it was during the frenzy of 2021–2022, that’s not a red flag. It’s simply a return to normal. And “normal” still means homes are selling because buyers are still buying. In St. George right now, we have a market that is close to balanced, with plenty of demand for any of the homes for sale. 

Life Doesn’t Wait for Perfect Market Conditions

Even when interest rates are higher or the pace of the market slows, people still need to move. Whether it’s a new job, a growing family, a divorce, or a major life transition, real buyers are still actively looking for homes for sale in St. George.

Think about it: Life keeps moving. And that means the housing market does, too. You may not see the wild bidding wars and multiple over-asking offers that we saw when interest rates were below 3%, but you will find that homes in good condition priced fairly are still selling, and fast. 

The Numbers Tell the Real Story

Let’s put things into perspective using the latest sales data from the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Based on current trends, we’re on track to sell 4.03 million homes this year across the country (not including new construction homes).

That means by the time you’ve read this far, another 8 homes have sold. Buyers are out there and deals are happening.
