June was both a wonderful and stressful month for many reasons…
FIRST, we successfully negotiated the short sale of 360 E Hubbard Avenue. Short sales are always a bit tricky; there’s the seller side that you have to deal with (if you are the listing agent) which involves a lot of documentation, incessant phone calls to the lender on the property and lots of back-and-forth with potential buyers. Then, there are the potential buyers that must be educated on the short sale process. If you or someone you know is considering a short selling your property (or buying a short sale), please give me a call. I’ve waded through these waters several times, and I know what it takes to get these deals done. I also hold the Short Sale & Foreclosure Resource certification from the National Association of REALTORs.
NEXT, my husband and I purchased a new home for ourselves in the Liberty-Wells community of Salt Lake City. The home was a Fannie-Mae-owned foreclosure with a broken sewer line (more to come in a future post). That’s right: sewage in the basement when we purchased it…not to mention the fact that I was 37 weeks pregnant when we closed the deal. It’s all fixed now, and we are loving our new home and neighborhood. And of course, I had the experience of purchasing another Fannie Mae home. If you’re interested in foreclosed properties (there are some great deals out there!), or if you like old homes and need help navigating through the inspection process (don’t forget the sewer and the foundation!), definitely give me or call!

Yes, I know…we need to do some landscaping! We’re on it!
AND FINALLY…my new assistant, Harper Quinn Dahl, was born! More to come in a separate post.
