utah county: It's a Terrible Time to Buy.... Unless - 10/14/23 09:25 AM
As interest rates continue to dance to heights unseen in a very long time, many people have been sitting on the fence. They're waiting. Waiting until it seems safe to dip a toe in the water again.
Some sellers have put their homes on the market, watched them sit with little interest, and have pulled the home from the market, waiting for a more promising day.
Some buyers have ventured out there, looked at a few homes, and withdrawn the enthusiasm to wait for a future date when interest rates fall.
So, how can it be a good time to buy or sell? How … (16 comments)

utah county: Single Ladies are Buying Houses at Twice the Pace of Single Men - 05/30/18 01:31 PM
It's not all doom and gloom in the gender gap wars.
Single women are buying homes at twice the pace of single men.
This according to the Washington Post 
Why is that? It's not just one thing. Among the reasons given:
They see the purchase as an investment. They're concerned with rising rents. For those in their 40's and up- they're tired of apartment living.  
Let's talk about the pay gap. Any of us could find all sorts of statistics that show women are still making less than men, even in cases where the job is very similar. Owning a home (versus renting) can be … (7 comments)

utah county: Utah County Plans for Future Growth - 10/10/17 08:31 AM
Utah County is growing. Over the next several decades it's expected that the county will add a million more people. While growth can bring great things, there is room for some caution and concern.
Several of the best minds met Monday, in an executive summit, to discuss ways to keep all this growth in check and to ensure that the coming changes would be beneficial instead of detrimental.
The leaders discussed planned growth, mass transit, infrastructure and the issues that will cause us to meet the challenge. They also opened the floor to questions. As Sammy Jo Hester of The Daily Herald reported, "One attendee … (2 comments)

utah county: Hey, Are Prices Going Down Yet? - 09/01/17 08:47 AM
Everyone wants a deal.
When purchasing something we tend to be rational economic decision makers.
When we sell, we want the most we can receive.
When we buy, we want more for less.
It has always been like this and we live in a time that rewards this way of thinking.
So, naturally, those who want to list want to make sure they do so at the right time to maximize their gain.
And buyers want bargains.

Utah home prices have been going up, up and away.
Buyers are asking me if the prices are going to fall... and if so, when.
I have no crystal ball, but there are … (3 comments)
