FEATURED SELLER REVIEW
Stephanie was amazing to work with from the very beginning. Great communication and care for us while selling our home. Never had a realtor give such a thorough analysis of the market every week, and be so on top of everything.
Eric sold our home in about 3.5 weeks, from listing to closing. Lightning fast, and results were better than expected.
Ken and his team made the home selling experience a breeze. We appreciated his knowledge of the market and our area. Highly recommend this team!
Eric Fontana was an amazing help in selling our home. He made the process as simple as possible and was always quick to respond. I would definitely recommend Eric and the Stern Team to anyone looking to sell.
Stephanie cut out the middle man and dealt directly with our buyer's lender. She came up with creative solutions on a difficult sale. I absolutely recommend her and the Stern Team!

How fast can you actually sell my home?
Our average is 49 days from list to sold, in a Utah market that averages 72 days. Some homes sell in days. Eric recently closed a Salt Lake home in 3.5 weeks from listing to closing. Your timeline depends on price point, condition, and how aggressively you want to launch, and we'll give you a realistic timeline at the walkthrough.
How do you decide what my home is worth?
We use a Scientific Market Analysis based on actual recent sales of comparable homes (closed prices, not Zillow estimates), adjusted for the specifics of your home. Then we walk through it in person to factor in condition, finishes, and anything unique. The goal is the highest realistic number that will still sell quickly.
What makes The Stern Team different from other agents?
Three things: (1) We've sold 2,000+ homes in 25 years, so we've seen every market and every situation. (2) We spend $739,000+ on listing marketing each year, while the average agent spends under $7,000. (3) We're a team of specialists (staging, marketing, transaction coordination, follow-up) so your agent is freed up to do what they do best: sell your home.
Will I be locked into a long contract?
No. Our Worry-Free Service Guarantee includes no long-term contracts. If we're not delivering, you can walk. We'd rather earn your business every week than rely on a contract to keep it.
What does it cost to list with you?
Standard listing commission, paid only at closing out of the sale proceeds, so nothing comes out of pocket. We're transparent about exactly what that is during our walkthrough so you can compare. We don't charge upfront marketing fees or service fees on top.
Do I need to make repairs or update before listing?
Sometimes a few small things move price meaningfully. Most of the time, big upgrades aren't worth it. Our Visual Design Consultation helps you optimize your home's appearance to maximize buyer perception of value, and we'll tell you exactly what's worth doing and what isn't. We also have a vetted preferred-vendor network if you want help.
Where do you work in Utah?
We're based in Salt Lake City and serve the entire Wasatch Front and surrounding areas across Utah. With 2,000+ homes sold in 25 years, we know the local market street by street.
