Seller concessions: what sellers are really negotiating
The sale price on paper isn't the whole deal. Many Davis County sellers are also covering part of the buyer's closing costs, paying for a rate buydown, or giving a repair credit. In October, 67% of closed sales included a seller concession. When one was given, the median was $11,000, about 2.2% of the sale price.

Methodology
Closed residential sales (single-family, twin, townhouse and condo) in Davis County from the Wasatch Front Regional MLS. Monthly trends, sales counts, median prices, days on market and sale-to-original-list ratios come from the MLS Sales Per Month report. That report includes listings priced $15,000–$10,000,000 and excludes sales that closed more than 25% away from list price. Price ranges, seller concessions, the days-to-contract breakdown and city figures come from individual October sales, grouped by final sale price. "Seller concession" means any amount in the MLS Sold Concessions field. Days to contract is MLS Days on Market. Figures may change slightly as late sales are reported.
Based on information from the Wasatch Front Regional Multiple Listing Service, Inc. for the period ending 10/31/2026. This information was not verified or published by the MLS, is deemed reliable but not guaranteed, and may not reflect all real estate activity in the market.
