2011 vs 2012 Market

by Mark and Monte Jones

Today KCM posted a graph comparing 2011 real estate market to 2012.  This was what the post read: 

Was 2012 a Better Year for Real Estate Than 2011?

Posted: 11 Dec 2012 04:00 AM PST

There are still those questioning whether the housing market is truly making a comeback. We have decided to graph home sales over the last two years based on the National Association of Realtor‘s Pending Home Sales Report. We believe the graph removes all doubt.

 and posed the question is our Is our market recovering?

We at Jones and Associates look forward to what 2013 brings to the Utah Real Estate Market!

How to Find a Great Salt Lake Realtor

by Mark and Monte Jones

Trulia sent out an email today about profile mistakes Real Estate Agents make.  It said glam shots and 20 year old photos on profile page might not be the best way to represent yourself.   One of the points the article made is it is better to stand out by doing something different or crazy than to blend in on a profile page.  To the left is a copy of the picture in the article.   That is some funny stuff!   The crazy thing is it wouldn’t surprise me if this is a Real Estate agent and her profile picture.

A few weeks ago they sent out another article about how you should dress for success and drive an expensive car.  What you wear, drive and the type of profile picture you have has nothing to do with how good of a real estate agent you are.    At Jones and Associates Realty we wear jeans and don’t drive showy expensive cars in fact I got rid of the Porsche 911 and Escalade to get a Honda that gets 35 miles a gallon.   Even though we don’t have the clothes or cars we are Fantastic agents.   We know this from the past clients we work with over and over again and from the referrals and testimonials they send us.  We know that providing a professional service and truly caring about our clients needs is more important than having a ridiculous glam shots or showy car.

If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in Salt Lake, Davis or Utah County call Jones and Associates to interview true real estate professionals.
