March 2018 Snow and Sun Matt Bagley Team Real Estate Newsletter here for you!
 
How's our local market?  Our Southern Utah Real Estate market is alive and doing very well.  The latest published Utah Association of REALTORS (UAR) statistics show more home sales closed in Iron County in 2018 than 2017.  However, the Median Sales Price has fallen 3.8% to $181,825.  That may help the affordability!  See attached UAR "Local Market Updates by County" for details and for every county.  
 
We are looking forward to 2018 continuing to be a great year for both buyers and sellers.  When staged and priced with the … (0 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Happy Columbus Day To You! - 10/10/11 01:18 PM
I've been having a fun day walking down memory lane.  I'm back in my 4th grade school room at Stoker Elementary.  Mrs. Davis is saying, "Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred and ninety-two!"  That was certainly a long time ago. 
We all can't help but remember that phrase, and what a beautiful sailing so long ago!  Look at the awesome outcome."  I'm sure Columbus would be both shocked and pleased with the results!  Enjoy your memories, and have a Happy Columbus Day!

cedar city utah foreclosures: Is Listening A Vital Step In Giving Top Service In Real Estate Transactions? - 09/28/11 11:05 AM
I say a resounding, "Yes!"  I recently read an article by Brian Tracy in a blog from Steve Florio of Mortgage Family titled, "The Key to Sales Success."  I agree that "The ability to listen well is absolutely indispensable for success in all human relationships."  That's true for sales as well as in life.  I was very impressed with his article.
The only way we can give a client the service he deserves is by listening to what he wants and needs.  We have to be interested in their thoughts and feelings, as Mr. Tracy points out, in order to provide … (1 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Does "Stop Dreaming, Start Doing" Apply To You? - 08/19/11 10:36 AM
That's the catchy title on the article I just read by Kelle sparta/November 2007.  I love her first paragraph, "Some people do so well at achieving their goals, while others never seem to turn their career aspirations into reality.  Why?  Because "doers" put their plans into action, while "dreamers" set lofty goals that--consciously or not--they don't believe they can ever actually fulfill."
I believe that believing is an absolutely necessary step in reaching your goals.  If your brain can't get around it, how can you possibly achieve it when your brain is directing the show?  I love the song, "To Dream the … (2 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Great Advice to "Calm your mind" In The Busy World of Real Estate! - 06/21/11 07:04 AM
Steve Florio of Mortgage Family often emails real estate agents some really good stuff!  I really liked his advice June 20, 2011.  He quotes Ralph Marston as follows, "You can choose your thoughts.  And you can choose, for a while, to be free of those thoughts."  Those are the first lines of 6 paragraphs, and these words caused me to stop, ponder and feel.  I will save the rest for another day!
How do you choose your thoughts?  Carefully!  I am a strong believer in "what you think you become."  I've practiced replacing thoughts with other thoughts.  For example, if I find … (2 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Smart Real Estate Buyer Believes Now Is the Time to Purchase Rentals! - 05/12/11 10:40 AM
I have a client that seems to have a 6th sense when it comes to real estate.  She purchased beautiful land NW of Cedar City years ago, in spite of her husband's objections, because she knew it would go up in value.  When everyone thought real estate development land would keep on going up for years to come, she said it wouldn't go up anymore and wanted to sell her land right away. 
I've been her REALTOR  for many years and acted as her agent to get her land sold at top dollar.  She was absolutely right.  The market turned around after we got … (2 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Home Mortgage Rates Improve - 05/06/11 12:20 PM
Kent Reid of MGM Funding sent the following Mortgage Market News for the week ending May 6, 2011.  With his permission, let me quote, "Weaker than expected data helped mortgage rates improve for most of the week, but Friday's Employment report then surprised to the upside, causing mortgage rates to give back some of the improvement. In the end, as they have for each of the last few weeks, mortgage rates finished the week a little lower."
Who knows when rates will rise as people keep expecting them to do.  For now, we do know that they are affordable and prices … (0 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: ERA Realty Center In Cedar City, UT, Has Powerful Real Estate Tools! - 04/18/11 06:48 AM
Many times people ask me, "What does ERA stand for?"  ERA stands for "Electronic Realty Association!"  Here's why:  Many years ago, ERA Real Estate developed the ability to electronically send information on their homes for sale to another office in another state in only 6 minutes.  Since fax machines were not around yet, that ability was a real estate technological first. 
Now that we live in a world of fax machines, emails, and internet, I strongly believe that ERA is still ahead of the group with its Seller's Security Plan, luxury home marketing, home staging, home warranty, social networking, technology, negotiating training, pricing grid, commitment to service, agent … (0 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: Are Home Mortgage Interest Rates On The Rise? - 03/25/11 11:44 AM
According to an email I received from Steve Florio at Mortgage Family on March 24, 2011, "Mortgage interest rates reversed course this week, rising as the U.S. Treasury began selling off mortgage-backed securities and investors' optimism about the U.S. economy overcame concerns about global events." 
According to Steve's email, it appears that the focus has gone back to inflaction rather than global disasters, which is the probable cause for a rise in mortgage rates.  Many economists and analysts predict a further increase in rates while approximately an equal number predict no changes in the next few weeks.  Very few experts expect a … (0 comments)

cedar city utah foreclosures: "Mortgage Applications Up 15% as Rates and job Market Improve" - 03/17/11 02:09 PM
This news is exciting for the real estate industry.  The above is a quote from Steve Florio of ERA Mortgage.  He emailed me on March 10, 2011, "Applications for home mortgages jumped to the highest level in 3 months last week, buoyed by improvements in the job market, an industry group said on Wednesday."
With mortgage interest rates and home prices both low at the same time, what are buyer's waiting for?  I believe the time to buy is now while there is a beautiful inventory of homes with bargain prices including short sales, foreclosures, new construction and homes priced-like foreclosures.  … (1 comments)
