2007 Utah Parade of Homes

I attended this year's Parade of Homes and was amazed at some of the homes. The first home was in the most beautiful setting I've ever seen -- it was nestled in Woodland Hills with a beautiful view of the mountain valley -- gorgeous! I did notice that many of the homes looked very much alike -- same type building materials, same builders or designers, very much the same. They all kind of blended in together.

I would really like to see next year have a wide variety of homes -- that's why people go -- to see ideas, styles, and get a feel about different architects and builders. I'd like to see a limit on the number of homes any one builder could submit. I did really like the renovated home on Provo Center Street. That was really a cool home -- but trying to sell it for the asking price was outrageous -- the rooms are just too small and the location isn't great -- surrounded by rentals. But the home itself was really cool.
