Utah's housing market remains expensive, with a median home price of $512,500, placing it among the top 10 costliest states. Limited land due to mountains and lakes, along with strong job growth and quality of life, restrict supply. The market is currently a seller's market with 4.5 months of inventory. Interest rates around 6.27% help affordability, and experts advise buyers to keep saving for a down payment and not give up.
