About Me
I originally moved to Park City in 1999 to take a full time job riding and training show horses. I quickly became intrigued by the real estate market in Park City and the surrounding areas, and obtained both my Real Estate, and Mortgage Loan Officer license at that time. I quickly discovered that my passion within the industry was as a REALTOR, I truly enjoy helping people find their dream home. Whether you are just looking for that first home, searching for a multi-million dollar acquisition and development project, or in pursuit of that perfect horse property or ski condo - put my expertise in the real estate markets of Park City and the surrounding areas to work for you.

Nancy G, Home Buyer in

Are there any environmetal issues in the lower SIlver Creek area of Park City that a buyer should be aware of?

Asked Mon Sep 8 2008, 09:35 by Nancy G  -  Park City  -  General Area  -  1 answer
Jonelle Simons answered:
Hi Nancy,

There is a high water table in Silver Creek, and many of the houses DO have water in the crawl spaces. It is pretty much a given that you will have to deal with water. However, a lot of houses have pumps, etc. that take care of the problem for you automatically without you having to do much of anything except check on it once in awhile.

I currently have a great home listed in lower silver creek, on 2.59 acres of horse property! please visit http://www.postlets.com/res/1138558 to see it - and feel free to contact me if you have any more questions I can answer for you. I am very familiar with the silver creek area, and would love to help you out!

I'm a first time home buyer. I submitted an offer on a foreclosure in Woodland Hills; however, the listing

Jonelle Simons answered:
The bank can require that the listing agent have all offers pre-qualified through whatever lender they want, they can not, however, force you to get your financing through any particular lender. You should have a buyer's agent help you with this, it's free to you, and that way you have someone looking out for YOUR interests instead of the bank's.

I am very familiar with Woodland Hills, and my Partner lives there, so I would be happy to answer any questions you have, or help you with this property. Please feel free to contact me.

Good luck! - Mon Jul 7 2008, 14:55

Jonelle Simons answered:
Banks want guaranteed offers, not offers with a lot of contingencies, ESPECIALLY not contingencies on someone else selling in this market. If you are capable of getting the loan for both homes, that would be your best option. Otherwise, you will probably have to wait until your home sells, or is at least under contract, to make a move on a REO property. Good luck! - Wed Jun 4 2008, 09:37
Dan, Home Buyer in Layton

Is it ok for a buyer's agent to limit the number of homes he's willing to show you?

Asked Sat May 24 2008, 18:20 by Dan  -  Layton  -  Home Buying  -  55 answers
Jonelle Simons answered:
I am sorry.. But that has to be the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. I understand the price of gas is high... And as a self-employed person... The agent has the right to impose whatever policies he or she wants in his or her own business.. But his/her fiduciary duty to you as a buyers agent is to look out for YOUR best interest... And imposing a limit on the number of houses you can see is definitely not doing that. I hope you didn't sign a buyer broker agreement with this person yet, and can find a new agent who is willing to really look out for you. If you buy a house for 240k... This agent stands to make well over $6000... And if he or she is not willing to invest a few hundred bucks in gas into helping you find the RIGHT home... You should find someone who will. I understand the cost of gas is very high and only going up, but that is part of the cost of doing business in this industry. - Sat May 24 2008, 19:15
Carmen, Just Looking in Michigan

Looking to move to the Salt Lake City area.

Asked Fri Feb 22 2008, 17:18 by Carmen  -  Salt Lake City  -  Home Buying  -  10 answers
Jonelle Simons answered:
Hi Carmen,

I'd say probably East Millcreek, the Sandy Area, or possibly Draper. It's hard to say though with as little information as I have - Other than good schools, what else is important to you? Do you need to be close to the downtown SLC area? What is your price range? What do you require for beds/baths, square footage, etc?

You can search EVERY listing on the MLS at my website - Windermere offers the best, and easiest to use search tool around! Just go to http://www.hometeamutah.com and click on "Search the MLS". I'd be happy to help you with your search, or answer any questions you might have about anything you find here! When are you relocating?

Please let me know how I can help you!

Interests
Although I don't get a chance to ride as often as I would like, Horses are still one of the loves in my life. I have also been training, teaching, and competing in Karate for about 15 years.

In the summer you can find me early in the mornings out wake boarding, water skiing, and most recently, Land-locking (surfing behind a boat) on one of the lakes near Park City. In the winter- I spend every free day I get skiing one of Park City's awesome resorts!

Park City has a great piece of the great outdoors to explore, and I would love to show you around!
