07/01/09-Draper UT Homes For Sale In Salt Lake-Report

By
Real Estate Agent with Group1 Real Estate, selling houses in Salt Lake City Utah

The Draper Utah homes for sale report for Salt Lake on 7/01/09 shows 7551 homes or condos listed in Salt Lake County. Fifteen hundred seventy six (20.8%) of these homes are condominiums. Draper Utah homes make up almost 6.6% of that number, with 505 single family homes for sale. Ninety two (16%) of those are condominiums.

The information contained in this Draper Real Estate Market Analysis is provided by the Wasatch Front MLS, from home listings supplied by Realtors from around the Salt Lake Valley.

While the numbers are from the MLS, any commentary is the opinion of Group1 Real Estate Agents. It is just that, an opinion, not legal or accounting advise, or recommendations outside the agents area of expertise.

This report will not include most of the homes for sale by owner, (FSBOs) as these houses are rarely listed across the MLS. However it should be noted that a very high percentage of these homes/condos are sold by Utah Realtors.

Likewise New Homes, (new construction).

Most builders employ agents to sell their own homes/condos from Model Home complexes. Most of the time these new homes are not listed, and the sales agent is an employee, (paid by) the new home builder. Good examples  of this would be the Daybreak community in South Jordan and Rosecrest in Herriman UT. Both of these communities have an extensive model home presence.  

Keep in mind that unless you take your own agent to view the Models, you have no representation. You should.

It's FREE!!!   Read how to shop for a new home.

Whether you are a Real Estate Investor, home buyer, or part of a family that is considering re-locating to Draper UT or any other town in Salt Lake County, we hope you will find this report helpful. and the Real Estate information timely.

About Draper homes for sale:

Of all the areas in Utah, the Sun crest area of Draper probably affords the homebuyer and investor alike the greatest opportunity for gain. It also is an area that contains substantial risk. With the bankruptcy of the developer in May of last year through the lawsuits between Draper City and Zions Bank the development has been destabilized to say the least. Obligations are no longer valid and the overall plan has changed and is bound to change even more as the commitments are evaluated by interested parties. It has been my experience that over time these things will work themselves out, but investing in Sun crest is not for the faint of heart. I would encourage anyone considering an investment in Draper to get a Realtor that is knowledgeable about the area and experienced in Real Estate new development.
