Free Home Utah.com

One of the creators of Free Home Utah.com (me) has decided to sell his house. Guess where I’m listing it first? Of course - right here.

And why not? I’ve always said Free Home Utah.com is the ideal real estate site - full home information on free listings (though I’ll upgrade my own without paying myself the optional $9.99 upgrade fee), easy to navigate, and home buyers don’t need to register to get all the information they need to contact the seller.

This doesn’t mean I won’t use an agent as well. I have an agent who sold me this house, and who I sold a home or two back when I was an agent and he wasn’t. He’s thorough and pleasant to work with and can get the job done faster than one online posting alone. I’ll give him a call in a few days and get the paperwork done.

Besides, those poor real estate agents are starving these days! With the home market slowed down, the competition for business is tougher than ever.

I’ll use him to help me buy another home as well - something without all the extra space I barely use in my current home. Using an agent to purchase a home, of course, doesn’t cost me - the buyer - a dime.

I’ll keep you posted on how it all goes.
