This might seem a bit strange, but we have the best landlords ever. We found our house by accident - I accidentally selected "For Sale" instead of "For Rent" in my search criteria on KSL classifieds, and it was mistakenly classified as For Sale. It was the only option that popped up. Within two days, we had signed the contract.
Our home has much more room than our previous apartment (we needed it with the baby coming), has vaulted ceilings, a garage (which is great for storage, woodworking, and I love being able to keep our vehicles out of the weather), much more kitchen counter/storage space, and we just love it.
When we signed the contract, the owners of the house were actually on a mission in Africa, so we were dealing with the kids. Our landlords got back from their mission a few months later, and they have been so fantastic. We've had a couple issues, and they're always super quick to respond. For example, the motor on our heater went out last winter, and they had someone there to fix it a couple hours later. We mentioned that our dishwasher had a bad smell coming out of it (it was really old) - they replaced the whole thing. They also did a bunch of new landscaping recently, including switching out the old, broken-down fence for one that matched the neighbor's, adding a carport next to the garage, and putting up new outdoor lights.
They're also redoing the downstairs apartment somewhat, so they can have a place to stay when they're up here visiting grandkids (they're from St. George). A couple weeks ago, they were here painting, and we went down to say hi. While we were there, they also mentioned that they wanted us to cut our December rent in half, as a kind of Christmas present. How cool is that? Anyway, I'm very grateful for such wonderful landlords - I couldn't have asked for better.
