I want to start with something that isn't a listing and isn't a market report. It's a city council agenda packet.

In it there's a line saying the fee a builder pays to connect one new home to the water system should go from about eighteen hundred dollars to about fifty five hundred. And the fee to connect that same house to the sewer should go from five hundred and forty five dollars to forty three hundred.

That's one house. That's just the pipes. That's before anybody pours a footing.

And nobody's doing anything wrong there. Those fees hadn't been touched since the nineteen nineties. The growth used up capacity that was paid for a long time ago, and somebody has to build the next round.

But notice what just happened. A boom isn't something that happens to a place. A boom is a bill. And that bill gets split up and quietly handed out, and almost nobody tells you which part of it ends up being yours. Coming to you from the Top Realtor in Utah, Scott Steele, the best real estate agent in Utah for luxury, new construction, relocation, and all things Utah.
