Utah County Homes for Sale and the FSBO for Sale by Owner
When it comes time to sell your home, one big decision needs to be made. Can I sell my home by myself or should I use a Realtor? Everybody wants to make as much money as they can when it comes time to sell their home, but it is necessary to maintain realistic expectations if there is to be a successful sale transaction. The For Sale by Owner option is often perceived to be best way to make the highest profit when selling a home. In theory, that makes a lot of sense, but there are so many variables that the results usually come out the opposite. In fact, statistics from the National Association of Realtors report that only 16 % of those who listed their home For Sale by Owner were successful in selling their home. The main drawbacks can be divided into two main categories, Buyer Perception and Seller Frustration.
Buyer Perception
Buyers often have a negative perception of a seller who is selling on their own. Some see the refusal to hire a Realtor, as cheap, and they begin to wonder how far that cheap goes. They wonder if maybe the Seller even cuts corners in maintenance, repairs, or upgrades. They think the Seller is going to be hard to work with when it comes time to negotiate terms.
Seller Frustration
There really is a lot of work involved in selling your house on your own. You have to field all the phone calls yourself and conduct all the showings. Unless you have a very flexible schedule, you will lose potential buyers simply because you are unable to accommodate their schedules. Sellers are often frustrated by the low offers they receive, but buyers realize you are not paying any commission and therefore have more room to negotiate. They want to save money too, and expect you to understand. Most frustrating to Sellers is organizing the closing and understanding the paperwork.
Does this mean that you should not ever list FSBO? There is always the chance that your house is the exact property that a buyer is looking for so they throw a sign in the yard for a few weeks and see what happens. If you have not sold by then, call a Realtor to guide and protect you, and help you through the process.

Utah County Real Estate and the Appraisal
The Real Estate Appraisal is an important part of your home buying transaction. The appraisal helps to establish what the property’s market value actual is, in fact it would likely be the main tool in helping the seller establish the proper selling price.
Lenders require an appraisal when the home is offered as security for a loan; they want to make sure that the property will sell for at least the amount of money it is lending. Real estate agents often use a comparative market analysis (CMA), with an appraisal to help their home seller determine a realistic asking price for their home. Many times, experienced real estate agents will come very close to an appraisal, but usually the appraisal is very detailed and is the only valuation lenders will accept when deciding whether or not to lend the money.
Recently the Appraisers have come under a very close watch from state and federal officers. Many believe that fraud has taken place in various areas of the country and has forced officials to take a closer look at how to regulate the appraiser industry. Given present state and local policies it is much more difficult to make fraudulent appraisals and be able to get away with it.
The two most common types of appraisals are the Sales Comparison Approach and the Cost Approach. The most common one in the Residential area is the SCA, where comparables are taken from like properties to help determine a proper price.
Your personal approval is accomplished early in the loan process, but the final loan commitment usually hinges on a satisfactory appraisal. The bank wants to make sure its investment is covered in case you default on the loan.

Utah County Real Estate and the Home Inspection
Home inspections have become very popular in today’s real estate world. Most buyers hire a professional home inspector to take a closer look at a home prior to closing, or even prior to writing a Real Estate Purchase Contract. The inspections cover a multitude of systems within your house. It is wise to take care of some of the more important ones before placing your home on the market:
No home is perfect, and most inspectors will most likely find those imperfections. Don’t be discouraged, and don’t feel that you must comply with unreasonable demands for repairs. Your contract states that everything should be in good working order at closing. That doesn’t mean you have to replace a roof because of a leak. It simply means that if you fix a leak, then the roof is in good working order. The bottom line is to do everything possible to get your house in good condition prior to selling.

Utah County Homes for Sale and Taking Possession of your New Home
The Real Estate transaction is considered “closed” once the deeds have been recorded with the County. You then own the home. However, it is not always possible for you to occupy it immediately. It is customary to allow the seller up to a maximum of three days to turn over actual possession and keys to the home. When the transfer of possession actually occurs should be clearly laid out in your offer to purchase to prevent confusion later.
