Salt Lake City’s 49th Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade is happening tomorrow ☘️

📍 Downtown Salt Lake City (Gateway District)
⏰ Parade begins at 11 AM
🎉 Siamsa festival runs 11 AM – 5 PM

One of those fun local traditions that always brings the community together.

If you’re looking for something to do tomorrow, this is a great one to check out.

Listing day isn’t where selling starts.

It starts with getting clear on pricing, making the house feel ready, and thinking through timing in a way that works for your life — not just the market.

The sellers who feel the least stressed are usually the ones who prepared ahead of time.
Not rushed.
Not guessing.
Just ready.

A little prep now can make everything smoother later.

Save this — and feel free to DM me if you’d like help preparing.

"Rates are lower… and suddenly everyone is yelling “BUY NOW.”

But lower rates don’t automatically mean it’s the right move for you.

They’re just one piece of the puzzle.
Your timing.
Your finances.
Your long-term goals.
Your lifestyle.

Those matter more than a headline.

And I know when rates drop, the questions start:

• How long will this last?
• Should I wait?
• What if I buy now and rates drop later?
• Is now actually a good time… for me?

If you’re on the fence and just want clarity (not pressure), DM me “READY.”

I’ll send you 3 simple questions that will help you think through what makes sense for your situation.

And if we haven’t met yet — I’m Tricia, your local real estate expert.

If you’re thinking about buying, selling, or relocating in 2026, I’m here to help you make a smart move — not a rushed one."

You don’t usually get this combination in Herriman.

2.5 acres.
Horse property.
Mountain views.
And still 10 minutes to everything.

This brick rambler gives you 6 bedrooms, a walk-out basement, barn space, RV parking, and the kind of setting that makes evenings feel slower and mornings feel better.

If you’ve been waiting for land without feeling “far away,” this might be your property.

Comment ROSE and I’ll send you the full details + showing options.

A strong offer isn’t always the highest offer.

A lot of buyers think they have to stretch their budget to compete — but that’s not usually what wins.

Sellers care about more than price.
They’re looking at timing.
They’re looking at flexibility.
They’re looking at how clean and confident the offer feels.

Things like:
• Clear financing
• Realistic timelines
• Thoughtful inspection strategy
• Fewer unknowns

When all of that comes together, you don’t always have to overpay to be competitive.

Understanding how offers actually work changes everything.

Save this — and if you want help putting together a strong offer, I’m happy to walk through it with you.

Let’s look at the numbers for a second.

In 2019, the median home price was about $380,000.
In 2025, it’s around $555,000.

That’s a difference of $175,000.

Now add in rent.
If someone paid an average of $1,900 per month for 60 months, that’s $114,000.

When you combine those two numbers, the cost of waiting over five years could total nearly $289,000.

This isn’t about rushing into anything.
It’s about understanding that waiting has a cost, just like moving forward does.

The right decision always depends on your situation, your timeline, and your comfort level — not headlines.

If you want to talk through what timing looks like for you, I’m always happy to run the numbers together.

Most homes check boxes.

This one creates memories.

If you’ve been waiting for something special in Bluffdale — this might be it.

This is just a simple overview to help you feel more prepared before you start.
