But, what is the right way to do that? Many of my clients have ask if they should get an appraisal before they list their property. Let’s talk about appraisals for a moment so we understand their role and some of the quirks involved. Appraisals […]

When tendering an offer to a seller, buyers often struggle with the questions of concessions. How much do they ask for? Why kind of concessions are possible? There are several things a buyer has to consider when answering these questions. First, are they in a buyer’s market or a seller’s market? Or in the middle? The answer to this will determine the degree of what can be requested as well as the likelihood of a sellers acceptance of the request. Another factor that needs to be considered is the seller’s […]

The work continues. In these latest installments we show you the building after we’ve deconstructed it. Interesting secrets are revealed. More episodes to come…

In a scene reminiscent of 2021’s massive blaze, and 2022’s bonfire redux, Ogden residents gathered to witness the demise of a massive 5-story development under construction by the Lotus Company on the former Teleperformance site. The fire knocked out power to a broad swath of downtown, including our home, during a winter windstorm with 30mph canyon winds and temperatures below 20°F. The fire burned extremely fast and the massive building was completely consumed within an hour. Here is a link to an incredible view of the fire from an adjacent […]

Two massive projects in Ogden City have been making slow but steady progress. The first is the Wonderblock project at the old Wonderbread site adjacent to the 2nd District Courthouse. The new parking garage has been an ever expanding monolithic presence on the site for some time. But, after months of tedious groundwork and preparations, improvements on the surrounding buildings are finally starting to manifest themselves as “gray shoots” springing up from the ground. While the parking garage is an imposing unsightly structure, it will ultimately be obscured by a […]

We just closed on the sale of this unique commercial/industrial building located at 897 N. 2000 W. in Farr West. In 2020 the owners of the building were referred to us for management services. They were having difficulty with the tenant and wanted to hand the responsibility to a professional company to make things easier. After several years, the owner’s circumstances changed and they they wanted to reorganize their investment portfolio. That necessitated the sale of the building. We listed the building for sale in June 2024 for $1,200,000. The […]

We recently had a wild eviction experience with tenants that had abused the goodwill of their landlord for many years. We were hired to enforce the lease and an eviction followed. Join us on this bewildering tour as we share our story.

The Federal Government has a heavy presence in Ogden. For decades the U.S Forest Service has occupied the Leslie Hodgson designed building at 507 25th Street. Also, the monolithic building at 324 25th Street has been used by the IRS and other agencies since its construction in 1965. This week the Federal government announced its intention to divest itself of these two buildings due to age and the cost of upkeep and renovations. This historic event opens a door of opportunity for Ogden. The Forest Service building is an amazing […]

We just closed on the sale of this mid-century rambler located at 4410 S. Orchard Ave. in South Ogden, Utah. The sales journey for this property was one of market discovery. This was an estate sale for the trustees who had strong sentimental appreciation for the home since it was filled with their childhood memories. We listed the home at a higher price in order to test the market. Our original list price was $439,900 when the home went on the market in late August. Showings were very quiet at […]
