Budget sets the search. Lifestyle determines the neighborhood.

Comment NEIGHBORHOOD and I’ll send you my full Salt Lake City neighborhood guide.

At $1M, you have more options in Salt Lake City than most people realize. You just need someone who knows which pocket of Salt Lake City proper fits the life you’re actually trying to live.

The Avenues is where I take clients who want quick proximity to downtown and easy access to the foothills. It’s Salt Lake City’s oldest neighborhood, so historic charm is everywhere. As it climbs up the hillside, it also offers some of the best views in the city.

9th & 9th is for buyers who want to walk to their Pilates class and their favorite coffee shop. It’s lively, a little eclectic, and full of character. Close to Liberty Park and downtown, but far enough from the noise to actually hear yourself think.

Sugar House is where my clients land when they want a more grounded, community-focused feel. Easy access to I-80 makes getting around the valley simple, and you’re right by Sugar House Park, one of the best green spaces in the city.

Every one of these neighborhoods has a completely different feel. Same budget. Three very different lives.

This is what I love about working in Salt Lake City and across the greater Salt Lake Valley. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. There’s just the right neighborhood for you, and my job is to help you find it.

If you’re considering a move to Salt Lake City, relocating to the area, or just starting to explore what $1M gets you here, let’s talk.

Comment NEIGHBORHOOD and I’ll send you the full breakdown on how to pick the right location for the lifestyle you want to live.

PART ONE of the renovation series is officially here.🚜🧱⚒️

A few weeks ago, we closed on our new home in Sugar House and I promised I’d bring you along from start to finish, so let’s get into it.

I represented myself on this purchase and waived all contingencies to get the deal done, which meant the past few weeks have been all about getting to know this house and building a real game plan.

Day one of possession started exactly how you’d expect… demo. We went straight to the basement to uncover what’s really going on behind the walls: plumbing, electrical, HVAC. All the things that matter most in an older home.

And of course, we still made time for a first fire night with friends because priorities.

Since then:
+ New exterior electrical service installed (very grateful for my electrician brother)
+ Water main replaced and sewer pipe lined/coated by Mainline
+ Prepping the interior for a new floor plan

And yesterday was the biggest demo day yet… the kitchen.
A family that demos together, stays together.

Renovating a historical home isn’t just about design and cosmetic finishes. It’s about understanding the systems, planning ahead, and knowing where to invest early.

Follow along for part two where I’ll share the vision for the renovation and where we’re taking this house!

If you’re thinking about buying or renovating in Salt Lake City, this is exactly the kind of behind-the-scenes I walk my clients through.

Xoxo,

Everyone’s heard the five-year rule in real estate. I don’t think it holds up the way people think it does. Let’s unpack it.

Salt Lake City is what we’d call an “appreciation market.” Even before the outlier years of 2020 to 2022, we’ve consistently seen strong year-over-year growth. Over the last decade, the median home price here has nearly doubled.

For a long time, the rule was simple: buy a home, live in it for at least five years, and you’re good to go.

But in today’s market, it actually undersells what’s happening early on.

If you look at a 30-year mortgage, most of your payment in the beginning goes toward interest, not principal. So the equity you’re building early is relatively limited.

Then you factor in the cost of buying, moving, and eventually selling… and equity needs real time to work in your favor if you’re relying on mortgage paydown alone.

The five-year rule was written for a different market. The math has shifted, so our approach has to as well.

That’s why one of the first questions I ask buyers is: how long do you realistically see yourself living in this home?

Not to talk anyone out of buying, but because that answer shapes the entire strategy.

Salt Lake City has seen strong appreciation, yes. But if you’re planning to stay five years or less, we want to be intentional. That could mean prioritizing location or finding opportunities to create equity through updates.

I’ve seen buyers break even or even come out ahead in under five years, but it usually comes down to what they bought and where, not just time alone.

Ultimately, it’s less about following a rule and more about building a strategy that supports your goals. And that strategy should be clear before you ever step into a home.

If you’re thinking about buying in Salt Lake City and aren’t sure what your timeline should look like, I’m always happy to walk through it with you.

Salt Lake City, Utah is the gateway to the Wasatch mountains… which means your Saturday morning can start at home in Sugar House and end with a 30 minute drive to somewhere that feels like a whole different world.

There are so many incredible things to do outside both in and around Salt Lake City. Morning trail runs on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail. Afternoon laps on the mountain at Brighton Resort. And when the weekend calls for something more, Utah’s Mighty Five national parks are closer than most people realize.

People considering a move to Salt Lake City, Utah and the greater Wasatch Front area are often surprised by how much access you get here. The energy of downtown Salt Lake City when you want it. The quiet of the mountains when you need it.
That balance is rare. And it is exactly why people who move to Salt Lake City, Utah tend to stay on purpose.

I don’t say this often, but this is a home that sticks with you long after you leave.

If you’re searching for a historical home with rich character, thoughtful updates, and truly livable outdoor space in Salt Lake City, this one is a solid option to have on your radar.

Located in Federal Heights, this property is currently available and checks a lot of the boxes buyers ask about when they’re looking in this part of Salt Lake City, Utah.

A few things people tend to notice right away:
+ A layout where the main living spaces flow naturally into one another, creating a sense of openness while still feeling intentional and defined
+ Beautiful natural light paired with generous, welcoming rooms
+ A kitchen that blends character and function with brick flooring, quartz countertops, a Viking range, and even a fireplace
+ Flexible spaces that can work as an office, guest room, or additional living area
+ Bedrooms with thoughtful details like light-darkening shades and custom closet systems
+ A cozy, light-filled basement that you actually want to spend time in

And then there’s the outdoor living, which is just as compelling as the interior. Mature, colorful landscaping and ivy wrap the home in a way that feels private and established, while the covered patio with a fireplace creates an ideal setting for slow evenings or hosting friends.

Outside the home, the location really matters here. From Federal Heights, you’re close to local restaurants, nearby parks and trailheads, and just minutes to the University of Utah and downtown Salt Lake City. It’s a location people love for both its convenience and its deeply rooted historic charm.

If you are thinking about selling in Salt Lake City, Utah this one is for you.

The Salt Lake City market is not slow. But some homes are sitting. And when you look closely at the listings sitting in The Avenues, Sugar House, and across Salt Lake City proper, a pattern shows up pretty quickly.

Most of them share at least one of these:
→ Overpriced for what the Salt Lake City, Utah market is actually doing right now�→ Photos that do not do the home justice or help the buyer picture their life there�→ A listing description that sells the house instead of the lifestyle�→ Hit the market with no strategy and no momentum�→ Minimal marketing beyond the MLS

Buyers in Salt Lake City, Utah and across the greater Wasatch Front have not disappeared. They have just become more selective. The homes that are priced accurately, presented beautifully and marketed strategically are still selling fast.

The question is never really, “Can I sell my home in Salt Lake City, Utah?”
It’s, “Who is the right person to make it happen?”

If you want to be known as the friend who always gives the most thoughtful, curated gifts, this is exactly where I’d start!

Salt & Honey has become my go-to for gifting in Salt Lake City, and once you step inside, you’ll understand why.

Their flagship shop in 9th & 9th is one of those places you walk into “just to browse” and somehow leave with the most beautiful and unique pieces. They also have locations at Fashion Place and inside the Visit Salt Lake shop at the Salt Palace, so you’re never too far from a stop-in.

What I love most is how effortless they make it. They’ll gift wrap everything for you, and their shelves are always filled with the cutest seasonal finds, along with clothing, jewelry, greeting cards, and home goods that feel personal, elevated, and just the right amount of whimsy.

Mother’s Day, Easter, Christmas, birthdays, or even a simple “thinking of you” gift… this is my one stop shop.

And beyond that, there’s a bigger story here. Salt & Honey partners with an incredible community of local artists, designers, and small business owners, creating a space where their work is showcased year-round. It feels intentional, creative, and deeply connected to Salt Lake City.

It’s more than just shopping. It’s supporting the people who make this city feel like home!

If you’re exploring Salt Lake City or looking for places that make everyday life feel a little more thoughtful, this one deserves a spot on your list.
