A 3-bedroom row-end townhome in West Valley City’s Towns At Hunter Village community sold with a reduced listing commission from DiscountAgent.com — saving our seller approximately $6,500 at closing compared to a traditional full-commission listing.
About the Home: A Row-End Townhome with Resort-Style Amenities in Hunter Village
This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom row-end townhome in the Towns At Hunter Village community offered low-maintenance living with a long list of community perks. At 1,580 square feet across two levels, the home featured a spacious updated kitchen with an island, fresh carpet and paint, can lighting, and a comfortable open feel. The row-end position meant an extra exterior wall, more natural light, and added privacy compared to interior units.
Upstairs, the primary suite included a private en-suite bath and a walk-in closet. A covered patio off the main level opened to community green space, with the swimming pool just steps from the back door. The 2-car attached garage with opener added everyday convenience and secure parking — a feature that’s always in demand in the townhome category. Built in 2001 with stone-and-stucco exterior, double-pane windows, and full landscaping maintained by the HOA, this home was set up for easy ownership from day one.
Students in this part of West Valley City are assigned to Wright Elementary, Matheson Junior High, and Cyprus High School — all part of the Granite School District. You can browse other active listings on our West Valley City homes for sale page.
How the Listing Commission Savings Worked
In a traditional Utah real estate transaction, the seller typically pays around 3% to the listing brokerage — separate from whatever is offered to the buyer’s side. Even on an entry-level townhome, that listing-side fee adds up to thousands of dollars out of the seller’s proceeds. At DiscountAgent.com, our standard seller program charges a 1.5% listing commission, cutting the listing fee in half while still providing full MLS marketing, professional photography, pricing strategy, negotiation, and closing support.
On this particular transaction, the seller was a past client of ours and qualified for an even more aggressive savings structure — our flat-fee listing program, which is offered exclusively to repeat clients as a thank-you for their continued trust. That program replaces the percentage-based listing commission with a single flat fee, which on this sale came out to approximately $6,500 in total seller savings at closing.
The service level didn’t change. The home was professionally photographed, syndicated across the MLS and major real estate portals, strategically priced based on live comparable data, and actively marketed through a longer-than-average listing period until the right buyer came along. It went under contract and closed with a conventional buyer. The seller received the same full-service experience any DiscountAgent.com listing gets — the only thing that changed was how much of the sale proceeds they kept.

Quick Facts About This Sale
About West Valley City & the Hunter Village Area
West Valley City is Utah’s second-largest city and one of the most accessible, value-oriented markets along the Wasatch Front. Centrally located in the Salt Lake Valley, it offers quick freeway access via I-215 and Bangerter Highway, a short commute to downtown Salt Lake City and the airport, and a strong mix of entertainment and amenities — from the Maverik Center and Hale Centre Theatre to Valley Fair Mall and an extensive parks system. For buyers seeking attainable homeownership in the valley, West Valley City consistently delivers more square footage and community amenities per dollar than many neighboring areas.
The Hunter area on the city’s west side is a well-established residential community anchored by good freeway access and amenity-rich neighborhoods like Towns At Hunter Village. Townhome communities here are especially popular with first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors because the HOA-maintained exteriors and shared amenities — pool, clubhouse, gym, and playground — keep ownership simple.
