The year ended quite favorably overall, and when we consider the climate this same time last year, we are optimistic our market will maintain momentum. With an election year on the horizon, we aren't hearing any suggestions of mortgage rate increases. In fact, they hit a three year low in January. While the trade and tariff dialogue has become more balanced, the stock market continues to rally. Here in Utah, the future has many positive pillars - another great snow year, the opening of our third resort - Woodward Park City, and the pending  completion of the new Salt Lake City International Airport. Utah's unemployment rate is the lowest in the nation;  couple that fact with continued job growth of high level positions within Silicon Slopes, and the  economic outlook for Utah in 2020 is definitely positive. 

Inventory levels are quite low in Park City. There's never been a better time to consider trading up, re-investing, or cashing out. Please give me a call for a current valuation.

Hope to see you on the slopes soon!
