we just found a new normal. Long term low interest rates and higher real estate prices.

A modest tract home in Logan now goes for $650k? I’m ready to call this a bubble

It’s definitely a bubble. Trouble is knowing when the catalyst to deflate comes

Agree. It’s completely bonkers these days to me.

30 year rates could be in the 1's in 2021

In what world is 4000 sq ft and a 3 car garage considered a modest home?

The CB dentist world.

Not this CB dentist. That's big.

There’s not one tree, no deck or reasonable patio, and it’s a fishbowl.

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:22pm

It's still 4000 sq ft of finished living space. That is not modest. It is

I mean warehouse has plenty of living space. Doesn’t mean it has any quality.

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:50pm

My thoughts exactly. That's an enormous house for the majority of America.

CougarTailDevourer

It’s big but low in quality and style

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:35pm

It's not high-end, custom finishings but still plenty nice

Agree. That’s a gorgeous house.

Doesn’t it bother you that they just slap stone on the front and not the sides?

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:41pm

Come on. People can’t buy their way out of poor taste.

No, maybe I want to start with something plain and customize it how I like.

it's the awesome landscaping that bumps up the value.

Seriously, not a single tree on the property

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:20pm

How many trees would salve your soul in this matter?

StarMan

I prefer a lot of greenery but apparently my taste is high brow

Mrs Featerbottom

11/23/20 10:30pm

Maybe? Utah is a desirable place. I would not be surprised to see higher prices

California has been that way for years. If people keep paying for them and

Garduno

I'm afraid it's just as likely that Utah has just been artificially cheap and we're starting to reach fair market value.

NihonCougar

11/23/20 10:24pm

I wouldn't say that's modest. 4k sq ft with lots of high end finishes. Not to mention you pay a bit of a premium

Pimpin4Paradise

11/23/20 10:24pm

$162 seems outrageous for that type of house.

Who? Californians. That’s who.

Jeff Spicoli

No bubble. Supply is low and will remain low until we get more houses built.

Modest house? Whoa. We have crazy different definitions of that word.

I see a 2100 sqft for $290k. New 2200sqft going for $350k. Seems reasonable.
