The combination of low-interest rates, high demand, and low supply pushed the market to extremes. When the economy started to slow in 2022, the Star Valley real estate market followed suit. While still at historically lower levels, interest rate increases have caused some pullback, mainly in the primary home market.

A strong demand, however, still exists for listings that are priced appropriately for their location and condition.
