You've decided to sell. Then someone mentions the SPDS, a CLUE report and the HOA packet, and suddenly the house feels like the easy part. Take a breath. The list is long, not mysterious. Some of it you fill out yourself. The rest someone else produces on request,...
You're about to sell, and somebody just asked for a document you've never heard of. Evidence of your water shares? The HOA's last minutes? Good news: the list is shorter than it feels, and most of it comes from people who already have the paper. Short answer: To...
You're getting ready to sell, and the first listing agent you talk to slides a number across the table. Is that normal? Is it the whole cost? And when do you actually pay it? Fair questions. The rules changed in 2024, and a lot of what sellers "know" about listing...
You've decided. The house goes on the market this winter, snow or not. Maybe the new job starts in February. Maybe you bought the next place already. Either way, the question isn't whether to list. It's how to keep a December listing from turning into a March...

You've got a number in your head. Maybe it's the Zestimate you screenshotted in spring 2022. Maybe it's what the house two doors down sold for that summer, when buyers were writing love letters and waiving appraisals. That number is the hardest thing to let go of...
The sign's been in the yard for three weeks. The house is spotless every morning, and your phone isn't buzzing. Nobody's said anything bad about the place. Nobody's said much of anything. That silence is information. A listing that sits is telling you something...
The leaves are turning up Big Cottonwood, and you're staring at a house you've half decided to sell. List now, or sit tight until the tulips come up and everyone says the market wakes up? Spring gets all the credit. It also brings the most sellers, and Utah buyers...
"The Utah market" is really six or seven markets stacked on top of each other. A $425,000 townhome in West Valley and a $1.8 million house in Draper don't compete for the same buyers, and right now they aren't moving at the same speed either. If you're pricing a...
