The Gardner Report – Park City – 2020 First Quarter
We are excited to introduce the Gardner Report to Park City, Utah! The following analysis of select neighborhoods in the Park City real estate market is provided by Windermere Real Estate Chief Economist Matthew Gardner. We hope that this information may assist you with making better-informed real estate decisions. For further information about the housing market in your area, please don’t hesitate to contact your Windermere agent.
A MESSAGE FROM MATTHEW GARDNER
Needless to say, any discussion about the U.S. economy, state economy, or housing markets in the first quarter of this year is almost meaningless given events surrounding the COVID-19 virus.
Although you will see below data regarding housing activity in the region, many markets came close to halting transactions in March and many remain in some level of paralysis. As such, drawing conclusions from the data is almost a futile effort. I would say, though, it is my belief that the national and state housing markets were in good shape before the virus hit and will be in good shape again, once we come out on the other side. In a similar fashion, I anticipate the national and regional economies will start to thaw, and that many of the jobs lost will return with relative speed. Of course, all of these statements are wholly dependent on the country seeing a peak in new infections in the relatively near future. I stand by my contention that the housing market will survive the current economic crisis and it is likely we will resume a more normalized pattern of home sales in the second half of the year.
HOME SALES
- In the first quarter of 2020, 170 homes sold, an increase of 18.9% over the first quarter of 2019.
- Sales were a mixed bag, with increases in eight neighborhoods, sales static in three, and dropping in seven. There was double-digit growth in sales in several areas. However, as the market areas in this report are all relatively small, significant swings in either direction are not unexpected.
- The growth in sales came as inventory levels fell by a very significant 70% from a year ago. This can likely be attributed to COVID-19. Second quarter data will confirm or refute this thesis.
- Pending home sales dropped 40% compared to the first quarter of 2019. Again, this is likely due to COVID-19.
HOME PRICES
- The average home price in the Park City neighborhoods contained in this report dropped 2.1% year-over-year to $1.152 million.
- The most affordable neighborhoods — in terms of average sale prices — were Kimball and Kamas & Marion. The most expensive were Lower Deer Resort & Deer Crest, Promontory, and Upper Deer Resort & Empire Pass.
- Although aggregate prices went down, prices still rose in a majority of the neighborhoods that this report analyzes. The Summit Park area had significant gains, and an additional eight areas had double-digit increases. On an annual basis, prices dropped in four markets, with the Upper Deer Valley area seeing the biggest declines.
- As this is the first Park City Gardner Report, commentary is limited. It will be interesting to see how the market further reacts to COVID-19 and we look forward to offering analysis and perspective when we get second quarter data.
DAYS ON MARKET
- The average time it took to sell a home in the Park City area dropped 42 days compared to the first quarter of 2019.
- The amount of time it took to sell a home dropped in 13 market areas and rose in 5.
- In the first quarter, it took an average of 99 days to sell a home, with homes selling fastest in Thaynes Canyon and slowest in the Promontory neighborhood.
- The greatest drop in market time was in the Thaynes Canyon and Heber North & East neighborhoods.
CONCLUSIONS
This speedometer reflects the state of the region’s real estate market using housing inventory, price gains, home sales, interest rates, and larger economic factors.
Given the current economic environment, I have decided to freeze the needle in place until we see a restart in the economy. Once we have resumed “normal” economic activity, there will be a period of adjustment with regard to housing. Therefore, it is appropriate to wait until later in the year to offer my opinions about any quantitative impact the pandemic will have on the housing market.

The Reid Report – Park City 2019
THE BIG PICTURE – IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER!
By Jess Reid
Since the great recession, the Park City Real Estate market has continued to grow and improve every year. Overall, 2019 closed volume is up 13% over 2018 for a phenomenal $2.7B dollars. Notable influences on our market include: An ever expanding geographic area of real estate including, extensive remodeling of older properties and many new construction projects. Park City currently offers a variety of real estate options for all kinds of buyers. Generally speaking, prices have been rising dramatically and a leveling off of prices, might be very healthy in the long run.
Read on to learn more about the diverse segments of our market.
SINGLE FAMILY HOME SALES
For 2019 vs. 2018, transactions are up 4% to 1,102 and sales volume is up 14% to $1.6B. Average prices vary greatly by area, but are generally up across the board over the previous year. We continue the trend, of higher priced homes ($4M and up) taking longer to sell. Here are some average single family sale prices in a few popular areas:
❱ Old Town – $2.144M
❱ Deer Valley – $4.7M
❱ Park Meadows – $2.26M
❱ Silver Springs – $1.3M
OVERALL CONDOMINIUM SALES
Volume is up 24% to $865M and like SF homes average prices vary dramatically. Some areas have very few condos (Silver Springs and Jeremy Ranch), while others are primarily condos (Canyons Village and Deer Valley). Empire Pass in Deer Valley, resale condominium volume and average price is slightly down. We believe this is primarily due to the new, much higher priced, projects being presold in the area.
DEER VALLEY
Deer Valley continues to satisfy luxury home buyers in our market and Deer Valley Resort has many exciting new things going on! Even though sales volume is slightly down throughout Deer Valley, this is most likely a result of the exciting new projects that are sold but still under construction. There is much buzz and excitement about the remodel and update of the Snow Park Lodge this summer and other lodges after that. After many years of speculation, it appears that Deer Valley may be seriously considering building the long planned village on the Snow Park parking lots. There is also talk of a new condominium project next to a major lift in Deer Crest and the continuing negotiation to include Mayflower Resort as part of Deer Valley.
VACANT LAND SALES
Vacant Land Sales have decreased in the greater Park City area, however, this should change with the huge new subdivisions coming on in the Jordanelle area (Sky Ridge). The primary reason for this decrease, is the lack of new lots, as Park City is very close to build out and the Snyderville Basin is also running low on building lots. The general Heber Valley area also has very few lot sales because most of the lots are controlled by developers and are being sold with homes on them.
HEBER VALLEY AND WEST COUNTY
Heber City is a much smaller market than the rest of the Park City area, but a very important one. It serves as a more affordable place to live for people to have a primary residence or a vacation home. Midway is especially popular for vacation homes. The East County, which includes communities such as Woodland, Kamas and Oakley, is another area with lower prices than Park City and is becoming a haven for more primary residences and larger horse properties. This area has more of a rural feel than any other part of our market.
NEW CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
New Construction projects are having a big impact on our market and will continue to in our future. Here are some prime examples:
❱ Park City Mountain Resort Village in the Park City limits. (See article on page one)
❱ Mayflower Mountain – A Billion Dollar ski area in Wasatch County overlooking the Jordanelle Reservoir. A 20 year project comprised of commercial retail, condominium hotels, ski runs and lifts and a special condo/hotel for the Military.
❱ Canyons Village is only about 40% built out with very high density approved for the master plan. Over 7 large projects are under construction with presales already.
❱ Jordanelle projects are underway with numerous condominium projects and a 450 lot subdivision (Sky Ridge).
GOLF / RESORT COMMUNITIES
Golf & Resort Communities are also another positive influence on our real estate market. They are a unique blend of golf courses and activities for the whole family from bowling to fly fishing to hiking and camping areas to gun clubs. All of these communities have multiple club houses that cater to all age groups and some of them have numerous Golf Courses as well. Here are some of the prominent Golf Resort communities:
❱ Red Ledges
❱ Victory Ranch
❱ Promontory
❱ Tuhaye
LIVING IN PARK CITY
We live here because it is hard to beat 300 days of sunshine & 350+ inches of snow fall each year. There are over 500 miles of maintained trails and thousands of acres of open space to preserve beautiful vistas and prevent over development. Our High School ranks in the top 2% nationally. Our Ski Resorts are rated some of the best in the World, year after year. We are only 45 minutes to an international airport and an easy commute to
a major metropolitan area, including “the Silicon Slopes,” a tech power house. The laid back vibes of our mountain town combined with pristine living and endless adventures right at our door step, make us happy to call Park City home.

3485 E Eastoaks Drive
4 Bedrooms // 4 Bathrooms // 3,605 Square Ft
$1,225,000
(List price is $25,000 Under recent 3rd party appraisal!) – Don’t miss your chance for this amazing opportunity! Originally built in 1962 by renowned Architect Ron Molen… and wow, did he have some great style. Sadly, this home was tired after all these years and needed some love.. That is, until D3CADE Homes and Halpin Investments got their hands on it! Where do we even start with this place? Curb appeal – Well, someone pitched the roof and we just couldn’t let that happen to the architecture here so we tore off a perfectly good roof and restored it back to the original flat elevation. Every square inch of this property has been meticulously revitalized to ensure the character and original vibe was not compromised. It actually has gone as far as re-desiging back to that 60’s feel.
Once inside, it’s apparent the attention to detail on the design and revival that took place. Book-matched walnut cabinetry, tile imported from Japan, a cooktop system known as the PITT built directly into the counters (who even thinks this stuff up), tile and fixture selections that make you wonder where you have been the last 5 years when it comes to good design and a speak-easy inspired hidden wet bar that makes it’s way into a covered patio, pre-wired for a surround sound and outdoor TV space for your enjoying pleasure. The master closet features a built-in makeup vanity along with an island which will make it easy to finish customizing your built-in layout here. The list goes on and on, to the point where this listing service won’t allow me to add much more. I think it is best you come visit the property yourself to get the full feel.

We know these properties are absolute jaw-droppers, and we hope you click that share button!

New Park City Resort Opening in 3 Days
If you’ve been anticipating this year’s ski season, and are up-to-date on the happenings in Park City, you’re probably aware of the newest resort that’s just days away from opening. But if you’re not au courant, fear not. It’s our pleasure to introduce you to Woodward: a world-class, year-round action sports resort that’s changing the game of all-season recreation.
Woodward may be a tenderfoot on the Park City resort scene, but its offerings are nothing short of thrilling. The grand opening is taking place on December 14th, and with both internal and external facilities, visitors and guests have their choice of drop-in sessions, all-access passes, day sessions, lift tickets, lessons, summer day camps, monthly memberships and special events. As stated on the Woodward website, “there is always a way to play for kids, and kids at heart.”
Rendering of Woodward Park City campus on Rasmussen Rd
In a press release regarding the start of ski season, Park City Magazine gave us this tantalizing description of everything to look forward to:
On tap for the new 125-acre Woodward Park City, woodwardparcity.com: tubing, skiing, snowboarding, BMX, cheer, trampolines, ramps, parkour, digital media, and more. The campus’s model is a progressive one, which caters to all levels of athletes. For example, terrain park newbies can get a taste of the action on the Start Park and eventually work their way up to a 22-foot halfpipe. And for those who lament Gorgoza’s passing, there will be 10 (or more) tubing lanes. A 66,000-square-foot indoor facility with all the full-throttle accoutrements of action sports (think trampolines, foam pits, spring floor, skateboard/BMX-like concrete park features …) accompanies the extensive, outdoor amenities. Daily lift tickets to Woodward will cost $50; and a month-long, all-access membership is $100.…Woodward Park City’s Grand Opening on December 14, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., includes an open house, along with experiential activity tours, lift-served skiing and snowboarding, tubing, athlete demos, and a celebrity deejay guest performance. Participation in activities carries a $20 entry fee (benefiting local environmental nonprofits).
Welcoming Ski Season 2019: A Guide to the Slopes of Utah
Ski season in Utah is an experience unlike any other. The planners of the 2002 Winter Olympics knew it, and we at Windermere Utah know it, too. And, when it comes to choosing where you want to go for your winter adventures, avid skiers, mountain enthusiasts, and snowboarders aren’t without options. We put together this helpful guide for you to use while planning your next Utah winter escape.

Snowbird
Known for it’s fantastic off-piste terrain, Snowbird offers you premier powder, and an apres experience that you can savor well into the evening hours. Snowbird also has an extra long season, and accommodates all levels, so whether you’re looking to take the kids on their first bunny slope, or are in the mood for some pro-level heli skiing, Snowbird is a fabulous choice. Be sure to check out their website to find their list of events.
Alta
Latin for “elevated,” Alta’s steep slopes and varied terrain let you explore all that the mountain has to offer. Recently voted as having some of the best extreme terrain, you’ll find three things in Alta: fresh powder, incredible vistas and pure adrenaline. As the first ski area of Utah to install a lift (1938) Alta is rife with historic significance and keeps you close to Salt Lake’s downtown district, so even while you’re off the slopes, the adventures don’t stop. Take a look at their website here.
Brighton
From mid-November to early April, the slopes of Brighton welcome guests with ample powder and short lift lines. Known for being well-rounded in all areas – terrain and hospitality – this resort area has been a SLC staple since the 1930’s. While resort areas like Alta are known for being ski-only, Brighton attracts many snowboarders and backcountry enthusiasts. You can renew and purchase your Brighton passes online at their website.
Solitude
If you’re looking for premier powder but don’t want the crowds, Solitude is aptly named for exactly what it offers. 77 named runs give skiers of every level the variety you want, and with tons of lodging options in a village-like setting, everything you need is right on hand. For the full Solitude experience, be sure to check out their most well-known trails: Dynamite, Honeycomb Canyon, and Challenger. You can learn more about Solitude on their website.
Layton – Tucked along the Wasatch Front, Layton has three fantastic ski resorts that keep you close to home while on the slopes.
Snowbasin
Best-in-class advanced piste terrain is calling, as well as endless adventures off the beaten path, and you’ll find it all at Snowbasin! This is one of the sites that hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics, so if you’re in the mood for some history and luxury treatment, you’ll want to check out all of the amenities Snowbasin Resort offers.
Powder Mountain
Slackcountry, off-piste, and tree skiing – for the winter enthusiast, anything and everything can be found on Powder Mountain. Because Powder Mountain also takes great strides towards preserving its natural surroundings, ticket sales are limited. This means that your experience is not only so much more exclusive, but it also means shorter lift lines, and lighter crowds on your favorite runs. Take advantage of this incredible resort by checking out their website.
Nordic Valley Resort
For the winter sportsman on a budget, Nordic Valley offers you a value that can’t be beat. It’s also incredibly community oriented, with after school programs and nightly specials that ensure easy and affordable access to incredible slopes for participants of all ages and levels. Take a look at their season pass page to get great offers on what you love to do most.
Park City – The place where mountain lifestyle meets luxury accommodations. The only time you’ll lift a finger is to raise the lift rail.
Park City Mountain Resort
For the first time visitor, as well as the regulars, you can expect great things from Park City’s Mountain Resort. Their elevated learning areas, enhanced snowmaking and grooming, and reimagined on-mountain dining experiences are all new for the 2019-20 winter season.
And if for some reason you’re looking for some added fun in the Mountain Resort region, just a day trip away (about a 30 minute drive), there’s the added attraction of a naturally-heated geothermal crater. So there is tons to explore, and even more to love. Check everything they have to offer here.
Deer Valley
Last, but certainly not least on our list, is the immaculate Deer Valley Resort. Ski in/ski out takes on a life of its own in this luxurious mountain setting. Their daytime restaurants has garnered attention from the most selective wintersport lovers, and their lift infrastructure gives you a streamlined experience. While it is classified as “skier only,” the resort itself offers amenities and views beyond belief. Take a look for yourself, here.
We hope this list is helpful to you, and we’d love to know – is there anything we missed? If you’ve got a favorite winter getaway, tell us about it in the comments! We wish you a healthy, active and enjoyable ski season. Keep checking back here at the blog for the latest Windermere Utah content, and don’t forget to like and follow on Facebook and Instagram.
