Midvale Condo Sold — Seller Saves Approximately $6,000 With a Reduced Listing Commission

A 2023-built 2-bedroom main-level condo in Midvale’s Jordan Heights community sold with a reduced listing commission from DiscountAgent.com — saving our seller approximately $6,000 at closing compared to a traditional full-commission listing.

About the Home: True Main-Level Living in a 2023-Built Midvale Condo

This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo in Jordan Heights At View 78 was one of the more thoughtfully designed floor plans in the neighborhood. Built in 2023 and offering true main-level living with no stairs, the 1,130-square-foot layout was set up for buyers who wanted low-maintenance ownership without sacrificing the feel of a full home. No-step entry, an attached garage with extra length, a personal storage unit just steps from the front door, and a large open patio off the living room with unobstructed views — all of it added up to a very desirable package for downsizers, first-time buyers, and anyone tired of stairs.

Inside, the home featured quartz countertops, an open kitchen-living-dining flow, and a clean palette of carpet, laminate, and tile flooring. Central heating and air handled year-round comfort, and the light-filled main-level layout kept the space feeling larger than its square footage suggested. The listing also included a full appliance package — range, microwave, portable dishwasher, dryer, washer, ceiling fan, and window coverings — making this a genuinely move-in-ready sale.

The community itself was a real selling point. A pond, playground, and walking paths sit right across the street, with additional amenities on the way — the HOA has planned a clubhouse and gym as future community features. Existing perks already include picnic areas, a fire pit, and hiking trails.

Students in this part of Midvale are assigned to Midvale Elementary, Midvale Middle School, and Hillcrest High School — all part of the Canyons School District. You can browse other active listings on our Midvale 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 condo, that listing-side fee can eat into thousands of dollars of the seller’s proceeds at closing. 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 transaction, the seller used our standard 1.5% listing program — the same program available to any seller in Utah, no past-client requirement or special qualification needed. The math worked out to approximately $6,000 in seller savings at closing compared to a traditional 3% listing commission. That’s real money kept in the seller’s pocket without giving anything up on the marketing or representation side.

The service level was full-service the whole way through. The home was professionally photographed, syndicated across the MLS and major real estate portals, strategically priced based on live comparable data, and actively promoted — including a Saturday open house right after listing. It went under contract in 15 days and closed with an FHA 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 at closing.
