748 W. 1160 N., Pleasant Grove Home For Sale

Hey everyone, I am in Pleasant Grove with some new clients and friends of mine that have been friends for a little while and I’m at their home it’s located in 748 West 1160 north and I just want

them to share.

I was going to talk about their garage and their solar panels and a number of things, but I’ve got them right here so I’m going to ask them to share what they love most about having lived in this home for quite a few years. I don’t remember exactly how many years 12 years, okay so we’ve got Trevor and Sheri and just in 10-15 seconds Trevor first, what do you like most about having lived here?

Well I’ve loved the location for sure it’s been been tons of fun to live here in Pleasant Grove, I teach just down the road and I’ve loved we love the yard, we’ve loved putting a bonus room on our home so that we could have a nice view and be able to hang out as a family and do activities and things together. The location’s been fantastic. We love to camp and do other kinds of things and it’s a great, great place to be.

Okay, that was more than one but it’s a lot of reasons. Sheri, do you have, you can give more than one as well, but what have you loved about being here?

One thing I like about our house is the road’s very calm, it’s not on a busy road, but storage we’ve added on and we have a lot of storage now.

Excellent, ok so those are just a couple of things I’ll have some more information or get a hold of me and we’ll get the listing information to you, but this Pleasant Grove is a hot market and you’ve got to check out this home.

So give me a call, shoot me a text, private message, anything like that and we’ll get some more information on this home. Take care.

Contact me for more information on this home,

Hey you guys hope you’re having a great Saturday morning. I am in Park City. and just wanted to share a couple thoughts with you.

I’m at a client’s home and I love Park City. it’s such a great place and I have a number of clients that are looking for investment properties and so I want to share a couple things to think about as you’re looking for investment properties.

My clients home is a fairly large home and one of the things to think about is that various HOAs and places here in Park City.won’t allow overnight rentals, and so what are you looking for you’re looking to rent the property nightly or do you just want a long-term renter a couple things to think about that way.

The second thing is everybody knows that the ski season, Sundance Film Festival times, those you can rent about any type of property you have; condo, large home, anything.

What we’re finding is during the summer the larger homes are renting a little bit better just because there’s a lot of family reunions and so anyway a couple things to think about.

I’d love to help you whether you’re looking to buy or sell in Park City. Park City is just a great place I love Park city and its really a good time to be looking at buying or selling property.

Anyway give me a call and I’d love to help you out.

Home Inspection Electrical Panel

Hey you guys, hope you’re having a good weekend.

Just wanted to share some information again on home inspections and this time on some electrical issues and what the home inspector is going to look at.

Remember inspectors are going to look at what is visible and what is easily accessible. One of the things that’s easily accessible is to take the cover off of the electrical service panel, if your home inspector isn’t doing that you need to change home inspectors.

But they should take that cover off and a few of the things they’re going to look for are the number of switches for the size of the home, how many wires going to each switch, the gauge of the wires going into the switch, they’ll look for corrosion, look for taped wires.

Anyway they’ll look for a number of things in there and should give you a good report on that service panel and how things look in that service panel. So you want to make sure that they do that.

One of the things that they won’t do which isn’t easily accessible is when you get to a fixture, for example this ceiling fan here, an inspector is not going to pull the connection, the fixture from the ceiling and so when you get into an older home you just want to make sure that the inspector goes through everything as much as he can. He’s going to check switches he’s going to check you know fixtures and that but he’s not going to be pulling things off the wall like he will the panel on the electrical or the cover on the service panel is easily accessible.

So anyway in an older home you just don’t want to have it look like there’s good wiring and then when it actually gets to the fixture they’ve left some old wiring.

If you need a good inspector along the Wasatch Front give me a call. If you are outside
of the Wasatch Front good luck getting you a good home inspector and happy inspecting.

Take care!
