David R. Haws
I'm David R. Haws — known to my clients as Dr. Haws. From Salt Lake City to Farmington and west Davis County, I bring nearly two decades of Utah market expertise and a genuine love for helping families buy, sell, and build new homes.
Five quick cards on why people move here, what the money buys, and how the selling process works.
Utah blends big-city opportunity with same-day mountain access. The state ranks among the top for inbound moves, and for good reason: strong employment, family-friendly suburbs, and no shortage of trails within 30 minutes of downtown.
Farmington and West Davis County sit just north of Salt Lake, with FrontRunner rail and I-15 keeping the commute reasonable. You get newer homes, larger lots, and a quieter pace without losing access to the metro.
Around the median list price, buyers in Farmington and Davis County can expect newer construction, finished basements, and yards worth the move. Compare that to closer-in Salt Lake neighborhoods where the same price often buys less square footage.
44 days median to contract · 97 active listings
Median days on market in Farmington is a guide, not a rule. Homes that are priced with current comps, staged well, and photographed professionally tend to move faster and draw stronger offers. I handle the prep, the marketing, and the negotiation.
