About Mark, services


Utah Real Estate Resources


Utah Real Estate
Real Estate Search. Search thousands of properties (updated every weekday) and find your own home or condo, land, duplex or commercial property anywhere along the Wasatch Front, then e-mail or call Mark and have him represent you in the transaction--usually at no commission cost to you as a buyer! Or call first and have Mark customize a search for your next home (recommended option).
Down-payment Gifts
The Nehemiah Program. Mark specializes in first-time home buyers and BYU properties. One of the most difficult things in buying your first home is coming up with the down-payment. That's where The Nehemiah Program comes in--they will legally gift you the down-payment money for your home, as long as the seller agrees to participate and the lender uses a program that allows a non-profit agency to give you that money. Currently that means that you need to qualify for an FHA loan. To find out how the program works and what other programs Nehemiah supports, or to take your required education course, visit this site.
Go to the home builder's assoc site. Utah Valley Homebuilders Association. This is the official site for member homebuilders in the area. As a realtor, Mark can help you find land to build and recommend homebuilders to help you meet your needs. Many respected homebuilders in the area work with realtors on a regular basis.
Find out what you need to know 
about the home you'd like to buy.
Michael Leavitt Home Inspections. All buyers should get a professional home inspection after they agree to purchase a home. It makes you aware of potential problems in a home, and helps you resolve anything serious before you move into your new home--the biggest financial investment most people ever make. Michael was the 1998 president of the American Institute of Inspectors and is qualified to inspect more properties for more things than anyone else in the area.
Calculate how much home 
you can afford.
Mortgage Calculators provided on the Fannie Mae site. Calculate what you can afford, what your payment will be, what you have to make to afford this house, etc. Many different ways of determining the same thing. I can also set you up with a mortgage officer in the area so he or she can do the work for you.

Area Links

I have put together several pages to help you become familiar with the area. Look at the descriptions of each page and explore the things that interest you.

Community Events. This page is updated frequently and is an attempt to be a comprehensive guide to what's going on in the community. If you have any events that you would like added to this list, e-mail me.
