Welcome

This BLOG is focused on updating you on the most significant new sales and listings in the Park City area market on a weekly basis. All content is original. By finding and discussing what makes some properties standout in terms of location, design, and price, I can help buyers spot locations and property types that may meet their needs. I select properties from all members of the Park City Multiple Listing Service that have quality video presentations. These videos are the next best thing to an actual property tour. When you are sure that an actual visit to one or several properties is worth your time, we can make that an enjoyable experience. If you are considering the sale of a property you own, it can pay big dividends to see what comparable properties are selling for vs. what properties you may be competing with are listed for.

I don’t shy away from expressing my opinions concerning this market and I’ve had many years of experience in doing so, but I need to know what you want to accomplish before I can really help you. This website and my BLOG are just first steps in a process that needs to add value to your efforts, so pick up the phone and call me or send along any comments you have on my BLOG posts.

RECENT HOMES SOLD IN PARK CITY, UTAH - 10/27/17

By Jim Lewis
Oct 28, 2017

Significant Sales - week ended 10/27/17

Although the activity last week was the lowest in October, it was probably the most interesting in terms of quality properties sold and listed. We are seeing new listings that will appeal to the ski crowd and we hope that we will see further additions to our thin inventory in November. One of the listings featured this week was also featured in the Friday WSJ Mansion section, but our local press was much more interested in the semi-final recreational league soccer game where Rabid Moose defeated PC Rage 3-1 to advance to the championship match on Nov 2nd. In other major news, the Park City Miners women's volleyball team won the Class 4A state championship and the North Summit Braves boys and girls cross country teams won the state 2A championships. There were 35 pended sales reported by the Park City Multiple Listing Service in the week ended 10/27/17. 40 closings and 56 new listings were reported during that week.

Single Family Homes: There were a number of in-town and close-in homes listed last week that are aimed squarely at the ski crowd. This timing allows the Realtor community a few weeks to inspect the homes and reach out to clients who have scheduled ski season visits to test interest in visiting properties during their stay. There was lots of listing activity on Norfolk Avenue in Old Town last week. Twin homes recently completed at 1060 Norfolk Ave and 1070 Norfolk Ave were each priced at $2,295,000 ($998/SF). These homes are each 2,299 SF, 4 bedroom, 4 bath properties and share this excellent location and quality construction. 1060 (the red one) - http://www.spotlighthometours.com/tours/tour.php?tourid=102992&mlsversion=1 . 1070 (the blue one) - http://www.spotlighthometours.com/tours/tour.php?mls=11704336&state=UT . Just down the street at 802 Norfolk Ave, a new listing priced at $2,342,000 ($1200/SF) has a historic feel and was completely rebuilt in 2000. This 1,952 SF, 3 bedroom, 3 bath home is only 70 paces from ski access on the Town Lift Ski Trail http://www.tourbuzz.net/public/vtour/display/897050?idx=1#!/ . Over on 439 Ontario Ave, a home built in 1995 and remodeled in 2007 that will have appeal as a primary of second home investment is well priced at $1,300,000 ($686/SF). This 1,894 SF, 3 bedroom, 2 bath home has a great location overlooking Old Town http://www.tourbuzz.net/public/vtour/display/897189?idx=1#!/ . A new listing at 7979 Roamer Ct in the Bald Eagle Club neighborhood in Upper Deer Valley was listed for $7,999,000 ($735/SF).

Ski-to/ski-from access, down valley views and quality finish's are only a few of the features http://www.spotlighthometours.com/tours/tour.php?mls=117043108&state=UT . If the Roamer home is just to small for you, a new listing at 69 White Pine Canyon Road in The Colony might be the answer. This 33,000SF, 14 bedroom, 22 bath home on 5.53 acres is priced at $18,950,000 ($574/SF). This spectacular home was built in 2006 and remodeled in 2015.
