The Buyers closed in June, took possession in July, and two days after they moved in, I got a call.     How do you deal with neighbors that run their music at 2 am and won't turn it down?     These Buyers went over the first time very nice and asked if they could tone it down after 9 pm.   He said yes.   Two days later, it was loud once again.    They went over and asked again, and the neighbor said he has lived there 20 years and that is how he lives - get over it!    The next day I called our State Legal hotline, and the Seller did NOT need to disclose this information.    He also suggested making an appointment with a real estate attorney and sending a letter to this neighbor. They are now calling the Police, but miraculously, the neighbor knows when to turn it down, and is off by th...

 You always hope at the end of a transaction, the client is happy with all you have done to achieve their goals for them.     I like to send a request through Rate my Agent, and most often I get reviews back quickly.   Some take a while, but all worth the wait in most cases! This was the case when I got this review - as it was an ActiveRain's sister that was moving from Aurora to Oklahoma, and needed to sell her townhome.    She was a joy to work with!  THANKS Paula, and hope you make some wonderful new memories in your new home in Oklahoma!

As expected, this home had immediate showings, and was seeing 30% of the buyers writing offers, but many were investors, and they were still looking for a deal, even though it was priced as a fixer.    The winning bid was a REALTOR that will buy and rent.    We do have two back-up offers. This ranch home has great bones, good layout, but needs some love.    This home is located in highly acclaimed Cherry Creek Schools, has 3 beds, 2 full bathrooms, and an attached 2-car garage.   There are 1,190 square feet on the main floor and 1,156 square feet in the basement, fully finished.   Priced at $385,000.    3537 S. Richfield St., Aurora, CO  80013 The carpet has been removed in the home, there are a couple of windows broken or cracked, needs interior and exterior paint, the kitchen needs re...

 When a new community is close to close-out, the model home is put on the market.   This model home never went on MLS, but my buyer fell in love with it.    They accepted her offer, and will work with selling her home.  These are paired townhomes with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and a 2-car attached garage.   Meritage Homes is known for building very energy-efficient green homes. The builder offered all the furniture, decor and even the towels in the bathroom for a great price, which my Buyer agreed to. Depending on how her sale goes, and if we have to sell her home more than once, she should close end of August.

  Wondering how the market is doing in The Conservatory?   Each month I do the statistics for this neighborhood to see how long homes are on the market, the number of homes sold, and how the home values are doing.  This is how you stay on top of a market shift or understand how quickly homes are going pending!  Below you will find the update for this month and what is currently available.  Homes in The Conservatory have basements, some are finished, some have mountain views, and were built from 2002 to 2016.  There are ranch models along with two-story and multi-level homes ranging in square footage from 1,387 to almost 3,000 above ground.  DR Horton/Continental was the original builder, but now Richmond, Standard Pacific, and Carpace have homes in this neighborhood also.  There are app...

 Couldn't have done it without her We entered the market in 2021 when there were more buyers than sellers. But, with Joan's guidance and perseverance, we were able to find our first home. Joan is very knowledgeable, experienced, caring, and patient as she educated us on what we need to look out for and expect in such a volatile housing market. Not only did we gain a new home for us, we also gained a lifelong friend in Joan. Review submitted by Arthur & Katrina (Buyer) on 18 Jun 2021 This couple was a web visitor and after COVID hit the Denver market, they decided to renew their lease for a few more months.    I met them for coffee prior to showing homes to better get to know each other.   I look forward to staying in touch with this couple, and watch their family grow!

This first-time couple are now proud homeowners, and cannot wait until the day they are able to take possession!    The Seller needed a 30-day post-closing occupancy to find a replacement home.   They are beyond excited, and will be excited to watch their next chapter!  Congratulations to Arthur & Katrina, and thank you for allowing me to assist you with this purchase! Denver, like most larger cities right now, is experiencing low inventory, multiple offers, and offers made thousands over list price.    Early last year I had someone make an inquiry on my website and they really wanted to buy their first home.   We stayed in contact, but after COVID hit, they decided to wait it out, and renew their apartment lease for a few more months. About 2.5 months ago, they spoke to a lender and st...
