SunCrest Community BBQ – The Q In Review

Kudos SunCrest residents, kudos. Chalk it up that the 2015 #suncrestannualbbq was a success. After a skittish weekend of weather, Mother Nature left us alone (begrudgingly, I’m sure) to enjoy this SunCrest community event.

Because...dogs.

I enjoyed trying (note: trying) to meet everyone who checked in. I exchanged many a “Hello, how are you?” as residents checked in, but [regrettably] missed some conversations. See you around? I sure hope so.

Based on our ticket count, over 600 residents attended. Not too shabby for roughly 1300 homes up on the mountain.

I now know whom I need to take to Wendover or Vegas when I cross over to Nevada next.  We had two families beat the odds and take home two raffle prizes.

Mr. Nuzman would beg to differ. By following our Facebook and Instagram, he took home 100 new friends, all named George.

How about the games? The bounce house, rock wall, slide, and jousting gave me flash backs of Nitro, Laser, and Turbo circa 1989. I can hear the American Gladiators theme music now…

The OA staff was on point all night with the cotton candy and temporary tattoos.

That cotton candy though.

Redbox, Netflix, Hulu, or the good ol’ fashion movies got the night off thanks to this big screen.

I’m on the left relaxing on the blanket…

Thanks to everyone who made it to the event. We hope you had as much fun as we did. One last thanks to our sponsors, The Ridge Market and Café, Penny Ann’s Café, Bake360, Red Bandana 4 Pets, and the SunCrest Snack Shack. These Draper businesses were AWESOME to support our event.

July SunCrest Market Update

Pricing Your SunCrest Home
The number of homes for sale is currently lower than expected. In a market like this, real estate professionals are often pressured by sellers to put a premium price tag on their listing, or to float a high asking price and just “test the market.” Many have seen a neighbor’s home sell quickly and for a higher price than they anticipated, so the temptation is understandable.

Selling Your SunCrest Home Now Versus Later
This strategy to list high and think, “If it doesn’t sell, we can always lower it later,” can potentially create a few problems as you are trying to sell your SunCrest home.

Pricing too high can potentially:

  • Limit the number of likely buyers who are interested in your home because you’ve priced it higher to allow for “negotiation room.”
  • Paint a negative picture in the buyer’s mind. If buyers thinks your price is too high, they may jump to the conclusion that you’ll be unreasonable in negotiations.
  • Keep your home from selling quickly. The longer your home is on the market, the less likely it may be that you get a strong price. Think of when you were looking for homes. When you found a home had been on the market for long period of time, what did you think? What’s wrong with it? Why hasn’t it sold?

Pricing Your SunCrest Home Right The First Time
Of the SunCrest homes sold from January 1 to June 30 2015, the homes that got closest to their listing price were also the ones sold the fastest.
SunCrest Sold to List
Our Take
Accurate pricing comes down to having a full understanding of our niche neighborhood, style, and size of homes–just to name a few factors–and it’s not just throwing together a quick, free, comparative market analysis. Oak Vista is not the same as Eagle Crest. DR Horton will not be the same as the future developments in SunCrest.

If you’re selling your home, ask the agent being interviewed to explain his/her strategy on their pricing recommendation. How long will it take to sell at that price? How close to their recommendation will it actually sell for? In our opinion, great agents will tell you what you need to know rather than what you want to hear.
