The real estate landscape in America has changed. As of August 17, 2024, new guidelines require prospective buyers to sign a written buyer agreement before viewing properties. It's been a month since these changes were implemented, and I wanted to take some time to observe how they've affected real-world transactions before discussing them. While the intent is to create more structure and transparency, it has added complexity and friction that agents, including myself, didn't necessarily expect - however, it's mostly changed the timing of when paperwork is presented and expanded our strategy of moving forward in a transaction.

Why Not All Square Footage is Created Equal in Park City, Utah

In Park City, some home buyers and sellers believe price per square foot is the best way to determine a property's worth. But this idea is more of a myth than a fact. It's a bit too simple and misses out on what makes a house special. It's like judging a painting by size without considering the artist's skills or beauty.
