Walter Cronkite said, “In seeking truth you have to get both sides of a story.” So to bring you both sides of the gondola, we will be chatting about some of the concerns in opposition to the Gondola project in Little Cottonwood canyon.
Emily Pitsch is part of the Students for the Wasatch Group. She is receiving her Ph.D. in Biochemistry at the University of Utah, and she moved to the Beehive state because of her love of the mountains. Discover her side of this project and why she is opposed to the gondola built in the canyon.

With over 7,000 cars driving through this small canyon, Little Cottonwood receives traffic from outdoor enthusiasts and locals who live and work in and around the canyon. Building and using a gondola in the canyon would not only relieve much of the car traffic but would also provide secondary emergency access to the canyon. Chris McCandless, founder of The Gondola Works, shares that something needs to be done about the increased traffic in the mountains.

For most home shoppers, any mention of roof damage is enough to send them sprinting in the opposite direction. Buyers who are not in the market for a fixer-upper are typically trying to nab a house in the best possible condition, and roof damage can be seriously costly to repair.

Our podcast producer Steph Shoell just signed for her first house. Steph started the process in December of 2018 and about a month later she was under contract for a townhouse in Bountiful. The deal fell through after getting the appraisal back and she was heartbroken. Her next housing heartbreak was the condo in Taylorsville. She put an offer above asking price, left crumble cookies on their door. wrote a note about how she pictured myself in the breakfast nook and was crushed when I didn’t get it. Her realtor took her to several houses but emotionally she tapped out. She was done getting her hopes up and picturing how she would decorate only to hear that her offer wasn’t accepted. Fast forward to the beginning of May 2020 and she went on a hike where her friend tells her about new condos and Steph was able to go under contract a few days later. Congrats Steph on securing a house for your home!

We have Missy Hansen with us chatting about the Utah Real Estate market and how quickly homes are selling compared to this time last year.

Missy says the hotness of your property depends on where you live in Utah. For example, you can have five to 20 offers on one property in Provo, and Herriman to Salt Lake can see more than 20 offers per home. “I’ve been in the business for 20 years and I’ve never seen anything like this.”
