This Blog Changes Direction
One of the things I try to do on this blog is to listen to my readers and try to provide information or insight that can’t be found elsewhere.
A comment I took to heart a while ago concerned keeping this site about Utah real estate, Salt Lake in particular. After all, that is the name of this blog. To help accomplish that goal, I established a more generic blog Easy Mortgages to try and provide a larger scale view on the lending industry.
Building an audience takes time and after three months of posting over there, I don’t feel I can justify writing for that site anymore. The readership at this site developed in the past 14 months is of a higher quality and higher quantity than any other blog I’ve created since then, save one.
With that being said, I am going
to focus specifically on this blog and that will mean some national stories and perspective will have to be included. There is no national housing market, but there are national lending standards and national laws that do/will affect every homeowner in America. Because of that, I believe it’s appropriate and necessary to write about those issues here.
Rest assured, I will give priority to those stories that affect Utah real estate and where applicable, I’ll tie national issues to their local counterparts. This blog has become quite a launching point for me and I’m eager to keep it updated on a regular basis. Consolidating articles and focusing on this site will ultimately allow me to maximize the content that appears here.
I think that by keeping a healthy balance of local/national real estate and lending issues on this site will serve my goals as well as provide the valuable information you’ve come to expect from the Salt Lake real estate blog.
