I didn’t have to buy and sell, but it’s always been an interest of mine. I’d go in and rehab homes or improve them. It was in pretty bad disarray, but I like a challenge and I took it on. Thanks to you for finding the home in the beginning, and I appreciate that. The process of purchasing the home was very smooth.
Another Realtor I was working with and I understood their plan and what they were going to do, and after about 3 weeks I could see that nothing was done. So I gave them another month; still nothing was done. So I changed agents. They just didn’t quite have that marketing edge.
Finally you & Joel got a hold of me. I said, absolutely, I’d like you to list it. Gosh, in a matter of 3 weeks, we had an offer and the very next day we had another one so I was in a multiple offer situation, which was great! I appreciate that. Today was icing on the cake. We were able to sell the home, and got it closed!
The 57-Step plan was great! I mean, you have a lot of steps there. Probably the key element that I think anybody can glean from this is the constant communication. To me that’s important in understanding what’s going on. The activity, whether there is or not. I really liked the aerial photographs – the marketing aspect that excels from everybody else. I would definitely recommend you to anybody. I’d say, you know what, just turn them loose! Don’t micromanage them, don’t do anything, just let them do their job and you’ll have success!

I’m Doug
And I’m Jean.
Our house is located in Liberty, Utah.Beautiful place up in the mountains. We’ve lived there a long time in our home but to sell our home, we want to be closer to our grandchildren, we have a whole bunch of grandkids. We’ve been around the block once or twice so I really think it’s time to make that move. So we have.
Joel and Ann were engaged in getting it taken care of. They communicated with us. Seems like some of the other Realtors listed it and we did not hear from them much.
They called us repeatedly to make sure things were done right and correct.
The buyer cancelled the contract and Ann suggested: “Well let’s just let them know what you’ve done to the house and then see if they are still interested”. That actually brought them back to the selling table which was nice.
It was a good idea to look at what (else) was on the market, helping us put it at a reasonable price.
I think you have the advantage of being a husband-wife team. You’ve got two personalities that worked with us. You have choices that other agents don’t.
(A neighbor) was a positive influence on us calling you in the first place. And if you’ve sold something for Steve, especially Steve! We won’t use the last name, but that’s a feather in your cap. That was a good sign.
We would recommend anybody to talk to you cause we felt like you did a good job.

A: So Jason and Natalie we just finished the closing on your home, how do you feel?
J & N: Excited.
A: How’s the process buying your first home?
J & N: It was really wonderful. It was smooth, we had a deadline of 3 months and we met the deadline on time and it was perfect. It wasn’t/you guys weren’t pushy. You were relaxed, helped us find what we wanted; what we needed. It was a good experience.
A: Good. So would you recommend us to your family and friends if they have to find a house?
J & N: Absolutely!
A: What would you tell them to expect?
J & N: Good quality customer service, timely appointments and meetings and a deadline that can be met. You are very on top of things, there were no surprises. No loopholes that we had to jump through. It was all up front and very clear. Yeah we had one agent that was really pushy she wanted us to get into the home that she wanted not we wanted. When we wanted to make an offer she wouldn’t accept making the offer. She thought it wasn’t right. She thought it was too low and so as she just blew us off. The house actually sold for less than what we wanted to put on.
A: What were your thoughts coming in to working with us?
J & N: I was just hoping that you wouldn’t be pushy, which you were not. That you would consider our wants and our needs, which you did. It was nice that you knew you who you were working with so it was a smooth process. So that it wasn’t like “oh, we’ve never worked with them before so we’ve got to delay our deadline. It was nice that you’ve worked with them before and it was very smooth.

I’m getting married, moving to a new city, so I needed to sell the house. One of the things that was important to me was as potential buyers came through and offered their feedback that I’d know what was going on, and so on, and I felt really positive about the feedback that was provided by you and Joel.
Tickled with the professional photography that was done to represent our home, and the live or video walk-through that you did, I thought all those things were helpful. The video up side that kind of helped, I think, show off the curb appeal and the neighborhood that we’re in. There for a while I was getting 3 or 4 showings a day. That’s why I took it off the market, is nobody was looking at it any more.
Some of the things that we did to make sure that that home was sold well is that I replaced the carpet. We put in some new decorations, and changed the furniture around. And, I think between that and the marketing and the photos and videos that helped a lot. And both you and Joel have contacted me very frequently to let me know what’s going on, and give me kind of, almost daily updates as to where we were. So, I’m very satisfied with that.
I’m buying another piece of property and I haven’t heard from him in three weeks! And with Joel and Ann I don’t think that would happen at all. I can highly recommend Joel and Ann Zieve. They delivered!

The market, our kids are getting older, we wanted a bigger house- we are starting to outgrow this house. It sold quick and went really smooth. I noticed on all the different websites – it was on like everything. The picture, just the intro picture, was this Ariel photo coming from the side kind of giving you a big idea of what the house looked like instead of just a picture from google maps where it’s just right in the front. And just the overalls feel on just every single website the pictures and the way things were designed to actually showcase the house really well. I almost wanted to buy our own house again.
It was a lot less stressful than it was before. The offer wasn’t where we thought it should be or it was worth. And we let you guys know and you could go back. We didn’t feel any pressure that we had to accept the first offer that we got. We had great advice from you guys. And I don’t know if we would have gotten that many offers if it was just on the MLS and a sign in the yard. The fact, that with technology and the internet today if it’s not out there-out there it is just going to get passed up.

You both made me feel at ease. I appreciate you, especially your demeanor, you helped me through a lot. I’m going south. I’ve got family in the lower end state. I’m going where it is warmer and I can do my painting and gun cases.

You worked they [old agents] didn’t. All kidding aside, they never kept me abreast of what they were doing. I had to continually asked them, and it just wasn’t working out good, so I told him I just was through. When I answered what you sent, a card or a letter, it just sounded like you knew what you were doing. So after I first met you I figured out that you did! Lot of times from a letter things sound good but being able to be with the two of you, personally talk and go through the rooms, tt was very beneficial.

It’s good it really is [the marketing]. People picked up on it real quick and we got a lot of people moving through it. Things can be a lot better than we think. You’ve proved that. And I was made comfortable. I knew by what you asked me to do, get things out of the rooms open up things, you know a way to look at things in a buyer’s eye. So that was very helpful. Know that it has been a good experience, and I think I have found a friend as well as a REALTOR.

I loved working with Ann & Joel at Northern Utah Home Team. They were fantastic and I noticed right away one unique thing that set them apart was the elevated shot that they did on the home for the listing. I love that! Very different but it gave a very unique perspective on the home.
I love working with them through the transaction of the purchase. They were very on the ball They had everything together and coordinated everything smoothly. We were able to close early and have the transaction ready to go and everything went well.
It’s very refreshing to have agents very on top of their game and know what’s needed ahead of time and have phone calls placed and things ready to go. When everyone can work together things go smoothly. So it’s great!
