When I think about summer here, it’s not just the weather, it’s the places and routines that make it feel like home. The coffee spots, last-minute dinners, and local events you look forward to. Here are a few I keep going back to...

Let's dive in!

📅 July 3–4
📍 Brian Head Resort
Escape the summer heat and enjoy a weekend of local artists, handcrafted goods, live music, delicious food, and mountain fun. Admission is free, making it a great family-friendly getaway.

Note: Due to extremely dry wildfire conditions across Utah, some community fireworks displays may be modified or relocated. It's a good idea to check with your local city before attending any fireworks event.

 

📅 July 4
📍 Greater Zion Stadium, St. George
Celebrate Independence Day with one of Southern Utah's biggest patriotic events! Enjoy live entertainment, family activities, food vendors, and a spectacular fireworks finale (subject to any local wildfire restrictions). Be sure to check local updates before heading out.

 

📅 July 4
📍 Historic Downtown Cedar City & Main Street Park
A longtime community favorite featuring a patriotic parade, family festival, live entertainment, food vendors, and an evening fireworks display (weather and fire conditions permitting).

 

📅 July 3–11
📍 Cedar Breaks National Monument
Take in the spectacular alpine wildflower blooms with guided hikes, ranger programs, photography opportunities, and breathtaking mountain scenery nearly 10,000 feet above sea level.

I get it. Giving up a low interest rate can feel hard when rates are higher today.

​

But your interest rate is only one piece of the puzzle. If you've outgrown your home, need more space, want a different location, or your current home no longer fits your lifestyle, it may be worth exploring your options.

​

Moving isn't right for everyone, but many homeowners rule it out before they ever run the numbers.

Here's another thing many people don't realize: Your current home has likely gained significant equity over the last few years. That equity could help offset a higher interest rate.

 

Of course, it's not always that straightforward. Sometimes moving up to a larger home isn't attainable in today's market or your situation, and there's nothing wrong with that.

 

Send me a message and let's run the numbers.

You may have more options than you think.
