FAQ
Sandy direct from owner questions.
- Do I need my own agent to buy FSBO in Sandy?
- Not legally. Many buyers hire a flat-fee transaction attorney instead to draft and review the Utah contract.
- Who handles title and escrow?
- A local Utah title company or closing attorney. Either side can choose; cost is typically split or negotiated.
- Can I still get a mortgage?
- Yes. Buying direct from an owner doesn't change your loan options. You can also negotiate owner financing.

Glossary
Key terms for direct from owner in Sandy.
- Promissory note
- The IOU between you and the Sandy seller. Spells out the loan amount, interest rate, payment schedule, and what happens if you miss a payment.
- Deed of trust / mortgage
- The lien recorded against the property that secures the promissory note. In Utah, most owner-finance deals use the same instrument banks use, so you actually own the home at closing.
