// MULTIFAMILY (2+ UNITS) YTD MARKET UPDATE
> Year to date (through February 13, 2024), compared to the same period in 2023, Utah's real estate market is exhibiting signs of recovery, both in sales activity and property value growth. There is a noticeable increase in the number of properties sold, and a consistent rise in prices across various metrics – including the overall price, price per square foot, and price per unit. Despite the challenges posed by elevated interest rates and the prevailing uncertainty regarding potential rate cuts, the market is showing resilience. We are witnessing historically lower sales activity, yet it shows an improvement from 2023, alongside a slight uptick in property values. This trend is expected to persist in the near future.
