Street Appeal—Making Great First Impressions
In Northern Ogden on Willard Peak Drive we have a listing that just draws buyers and renters to it because of its street appeal. Street appeal is hard to define but when you look at a house it has it or it doesn’t. The nice thing about street appeal is that if a house doesn’t have it, it can be created. Pictures don’t always show the whole story but this house draws more showings because of the additional rock work on the front and its triple garage which is unusual for this area. We have had so many showings on this property and it has been under contract three different times only to have buyer’s back away because of financing and other buyer related issues. Those who have driven by this house remember its street appeal.
Even with all the traffic and the great street appeal, the house has one default that keeps it from selling! It has one unfinished bedroom which will make it a three bedroom 2 bath home. As a result, the owner is adding the third bedroom and my predictions are that this home will again be under contract or rented within a 30-day period from when the bedroom is complete. This home has 1,458 s.f., a very nice family room and fireplace, fenced backyard, close to major traffic and transit routes, and an open, spacious floor plan. List price is $172,000 and this home rents for $1,200 per month.
