Keith Jeppson - Salt Lake City Real Estate

Salt Lake City Real Estate Services for Buyers, Sellers, And Investors

The Jeppson Team at Everest Realty Group is a Full-Service Real Estate Team focusing on home buyers, sellers, and multi-family property investors. Our team includes experienced listing and buyers agents in each city located within the Metropolitan Salt Lake City area.

Exclusive Buyers Agents

We believe that every buyer deserves Exclusive Buyers Representation. Agency and relationships are the core of all our services. While many brokers may feel comfortable practicing "limited agency" we do not. We are fully committed to you as our client and therefore will only represent you as your Exclusive Agent. We take our fiduciary duty as your exclusive buyers agent very serious and are driven to find you the best home at the best terms possible - regardless of the effort or time it may take.

Happy Meal Listing Services

Sellers are tired of being packaged into one type of listing service. Thus the burgeoning success of some of the limited service real estate brokerages. The problem with those services is their limited exposure and they are still packaging sellers into a plain package of services but now with little to no professional assistance to the seller. They simply list your home on the multiple listing service (MLS) and then turn their back. You are on your own.

We offer the full range of services from full service traditional sellers support to a transaction coordinator. You pick the services that match your needs and the fees you're willing to pay. Look at it like a Happy Meal. You can pick and choose what kind of real estate marketing services you want and not pay for those you don't. It's a win-win proposition for all involved. Our fees are fully negotiable and can be very agressive for motivated home sellers.

But, make sure you really want to sell. We will not take a listing that we do not believe will sell within 30 days. Most agents will take any listing just to get their sign in the yard and try and pick up some buyer clients. They are wimps and will list a home at whatever price a seller wants to list at. We're different. We do extensive research into market trend sna d home values by neighborhood. We know what homes will sell for and price them to get top dollar but to sell within 30 days. If sellers are not willing to price within our required range we decline the listing. Trying to support listings that do not want to sell justs takes valuable time away from supporting those clients who are serious about their efforts to sell.

Let's get your home sold!

Real Estate Investor Services

The Jeppson Team has a core group of agents focused on multi-family and distressed properties. We are constantly scouring the Multiple Listing Services, foreclosure sales, and non-public markets for opportunities for our investors. We are numbers oriented and look at the financial viability of an investment before even looking at the property. We believe our clients should understand the risk and reward potential of each investment and spend the time with buyers and sellers to make sure they understand the current market its apparent direction.

Our team is experienced in 1031 tax-deferred exchanges and look for every opportunity to assist our clients in preserving their investment dollars. The more they can roll into the next investment...the better their return.

Our Mission Statement

Our Mission is to make sure that both our clients and our team can "sleep when the wind blows".

We believe in the "life-time" value of a client relationship. Therefore our services go far beyond the transaction we may be involved in together. Our Utah Real Estate Directory and Relocation Directory are examples of that service. We can provide tried-and-tested resources for whatever your home may need in repairs or improvement. We also keep you well informed of local and regional news and legislation that may have a positive or negative impact on the value of your real estate investment.

Education And Real Estate Experience

I am a Native Utahn and have lived in Utah most of my life. I attended East High School and graduated with a BS in Accounting from the University of Utah. After college I worked as a CPA with a National Accounting Firm (Coopers & Lybrand). Because of my love for Utah Real Estate I obtained my Real Estate license to purchase my own investment properties and to assist my friends and family as a sideline career. After being frustrated working in corporate America and making others wealthy ... I ended my public accounting career and went into Real Estate fulltime.

As a 20 year veteran in the Utah Real Estate industry, I've experienced many market cycles and can help my clients through whatever challanges may arise. I specialize in Empty-Nesters, Executive, and 2nd Home Buyers, but also assist first-time home buyers get into their home home with No Money down.

An educated agent is critical to a clients success and a smooth transaction. My education includes certification as a CPA, CFP, Associate, Broker ABR, GRI, and e-PRO.

Additionally, as a licensed Mortgage Broker, I can direct a Real Estate client to a qualified mortgage professional that will provide them the BEST financing package available at the GUARANTEED lowest price. Check it out ... You'll be glad you did!

I married a wonderful woman who joined me as a licensed Real Estate Agent. We have five fantastic children.

What My Clients Have To Say

"Dear Keith, I wanted to pass on my appreciation for your assistance in purchasing multiple properties in Salt Lake City within my restricted 1031 timeframe. your professionalism has exceeded all Realtors I have worked with in the past. You have the patience to work with an out-of-state investor and your proactive in assisting with all the details while I am not physically present. This included taking clear pictures of prospective houses and posting them online for me, referrals to preferred contractors, insurance companies, mortgage companies, property management agencies, etc. During my visits, you provided invaluable education on the area, local markets, and what to look out for (e.g. the green labels!). Secondly, I'd like to thank you for your assistance in negotiations; without your creativity and promptness, I'm confident we would not have been the winning bid in the first-day multi-bid situations we ran in to. Based upon your guidance, I'm extremely happy with the locality in Sandy where I purchased the houses.

Please feel free to use me as a reference for any of your future clients."
