August was a busy month for our clients! 🏑❀️

We ended the month with 7 properties at different stages of the buying and selling process, from brand-new listings to handing over the keys.

Here’s our August wrap-up:

🏑 ACTIVE LISTINGS

πŸ“ Orem β€” Condo
πŸ“ Salt Lake City β€” Single-family home

πŸ“ SELLERS UNDER CONTRACT

πŸ“ Spanish Fork β€” Listed AND went under contract in August πŸŽ‰
πŸ“ Santaquin β€” Listed AND went under contract in August πŸŽ‰

πŸ”‘ BUYER UNDER CONTRACT

πŸ“ Spanish Fork β€” Our buyers found their home and are officially under contract!

πŸŽ‰ SOLD

πŸ“ Eagle Mountain β€” Helped our BUYERS close on their new home
πŸ“ Lehi β€” Helped our SELLERS close on their townhome

That's 2 active listings, 3 properties under contract, and 2 closings across six Utah communities.

Behind every one of those numbers is a client making a pretty big life decision, and we're incredibly grateful they trusted our team to help them through it. ❀️

Thank you to all of our August clients!

Now we're excited to see what September brings. 🏑

Thinking about buying or selling? We'd love to help you figure out your next step.

Ooh,  potential book-nook hidey hole!

Moving to Utah from another state can make buying a home feel a little overwhelming.

You don't know every neighborhood.

You don't necessarily know what homes should be selling for.

And you may not know what to look for in our local market.

That's why this review from Doyle means so much to me. ❀️

One thing he mentioned was the amount of research I did on every house they considered.

That's something buyers don't always realize is happening behind the scenes.

Before my clients make an offer, I want to understand the property, the comparable sales, the neighborhood, how long it's been on the market, what else is competing with it, and anything else that could affect what I think we should offer.

Especially when you're moving here from out of state, you should never feel like you're trying to figure all of this out alone.

My job isn't just to unlock the house.

It's to help you make a really big decision with as much information as possible.

Doyle, thank you for trusting me to help with your move to Utah and for such a thoughtful review. It was an absolute pleasure working with you!

We just hit a pretty interesting milestone in Salt Lake County.

Last month, the average original list price for single-family homes was around $1 MILLION.

The average sales price was still lower, at approximately $966,000, but seeing that seven-figure average list price caught my attention.

Especially because a few years ago, I wrote about the possibility of Salt Lake County's average home price crossing $1 million by around 2032.

We're obviously not there yet based on actual closed sales, and one month doesn't establish a trend, but it's interesting to see that number starting to appear this early.

There's also some important context.

Salt Lake County includes some very expensive areas, but it also includes more affordable communities that bring the countywide average down. And averages can be heavily influenced by the mix of homes that happened to be listed or sold during a particular month.

So I'm definitely not saying:

β€œThe average Salt Lake County home is officially worth $1 million.”

But I AM watching this.

If prices continue moving this direction, that $1 million milestone may arrive sooner than I originally expected.

Now I'm curious what you think:

Is this just a one-month fluke, or are $1 million average home prices becoming the new reality for Salt Lake County?

Dare I ask? Do you prefer the original or the update?

It sounds strange to think about selling a home before you've even bought it.

But I want my buyers thinking about BOTH.

Because someday, there's a good chance you'll need to sell it.

That doesn't mean you should only buy homes that appeal to everyone. Your home still needs to work for you.

But there are certain things I want buyers to at least consider:

β€’ Is the location going to appeal to future buyers?
β€’ Is the floor plan functionalβ€”or just quirky?
β€’ Are there major drawbacks you're overlooking because you love something else about the house?
β€’ Is the home dramatically over-improved for the neighborhood?
β€’ Will the property be difficult to finance or insure?
β€’ Is there something about it that could significantly limit your future buyer pool?

None of those things automatically mean you shouldn't buy the house.

Sometimes the weird house is exactly the right house. πŸ˜„

I just want you to understand what you're buying.

Because your ability to sell a home someday can be just as important as your ability to buy it today.

A good agent shouldn't just help you get INTO a home.

We should also be thinking about how you'll eventually get OUT of it.

One of the questions I get ALL the time after someone buys a house is:

β€œDo you know someone who can fix this?”

And usually... yes. πŸ˜‚

After years in real estate, I've built relationships with contractors, plumbers, electricians, inspectors, HVAC companies, roofers, handymen, and just about every other trade you eventually need as a homeowner.

That's why I loved this review from Mackenzie:

β€œBecca was great to work with! Always easy to get a hold of and prepared. She offers good insight on the home buying process and always has a connection or recommendation to a skilled tradesman.”

Helping you buy the house is obviously the priority.

But I also want to be a resource after you get the keys.

Need someone to look at the furnace?

Call me.

Need a plumber?

Call me.

Thinking about remodeling three years later and don't know where to start?

You can still call me.

Mackenzie, thank you for trusting me through your home purchase and for taking the time to share your experience. ❀️

You cleaned the house.

You got everyone out.

And then the buyer canceled their showing.

It's frustrating. I get it.

But one mistake I see sellers make is responding by making their home increasingly difficult to show.

β€œ24-hour notice required.”

β€œNo showings after 5.”

β€œOnly Saturday afternoon.”

The problem?

Buyers don't always plan their home search days in advance.

They may already be out with their agent when a new listing pops up. They may finish another showing early. Or your home may suddenly become the one they want to see before making an offer on something else.

If getting inside is too difficult, sometimes they simply move on to the next home.

That doesn't mean sellers should turn their lives upside down for every showing request.

We can set reasonable boundaries and communicate clearly.

But when you're actively trying to sell, accessibility is part of your marketing strategy.

The easier we make it for qualified buyers to experience your home, the more opportunities we create for someone to fall in love with it.

You can't sell your home to someone who never gets through the front door.

Here's a ridiculously simple staging trick a professional real estate photographer taught me years agoβ€”and I still use it with my sellers.

Don't open your blinds all the way.

Instead, tilt them open so you're letting plenty of natural light into the room while the blinds themselves stay down.

Why?

Completely raised blinds can make a window feel a little bare and draw your eye outside. Keeping them down but tilted open softens the window, filters the light, and helps the room feel finished while still keeping it bright.

It's a tiny detail, but when you're preparing a home for professional photography or a showing, all of those little details add up.

So when we're getting one of our listings ready:

πŸͺŸ Blinds down
β˜€οΈ Slats open
πŸ’‘ Lights on
✨ House show-ready

It's one of those staging tricks that costs $0 but can make a room photograph and show better.

Save this one if you're getting ready to sell!
