Lenders handle about 60% of the escrows and title companies handle the rest. Conveyance is by warranty deed. Mortgages and deeds of trust with private power of sale are the security instruments. Mortgage foreclosures require judicial proceedings which take about a year; deed-of-trust foreclosures take advantage of private power-of-sale provisions and take about 4 months. Utahans use ALTA owner’s and lender’s policies and endorsements. Buyers and sellers split escrow fees, and sellers pay the title insurance premiums. There are no documentary, transfer, or mortgage taxes. Property taxes are payable November 30th.

YES. Property management is expressly considered a real estate activity under existing Utah real estate licensing laws, and requires a broker's license. A Broker license is required for any individual who, for another and for valuable consideration, engages in property management including advertising real estate for lease or rent, procuring prospective tenants or lessees, negotiating lease or rental terms, executing lease or rental agreements. A Sales Agent working for a Broker may also engage in such acts.
YES. The licensing requirement does not apply to an owner who manages his or her own property, an employee for one property owner, apartment managers who reside in the apartments at reduced rent, full-time salaried employees of a Homeowners Association, hotel or motel management, or management activities associated with rental accommodations for a period of less than 30 consecutive days. For more information about these and other Utah property management requirements and exceptions, please contact the Utah Division of Real Estate. Before hiring a property manager to manage your Utah rental property, you should always check that he or she is licensed appropriately. You can check the license status of Utah property managers using their Licensee Info Search tool.
There is no requirement that a Utah community association manager or condo association manager hold a real estate broker's license.
