A REALTOR who listens to his clients …

 

Garry was as dedicated as I was toward resolving whatever issues came up. He made my problems his own and worked with me until they were resolved. I experience this attitude/ethic very rarely and am always thankful to see that it’s still out there. His availability and consistency in problem solving went far in reducing the stress that I was under. I never had a doubt regarding any aspect of his performance. Without exception, every task they undertook, whether at my request or their volunteering, was carried out promptly and properly.” 

Boulder, July 2012  

 

“Garry listened to what I wanted in a house and didn’t try to push me towards a specific thing that he “thought” I would like or try to push me higher then I wanted to go price wise. He worked very hard to help me find exactly the house I was looking for at a price I was comfortable with.”

“Professionalism was always applied, whether it was in person, on the phone, in a message left or an email sent. The information provided regarding properties we were interested in was beyond that which was expected and sincerely appreciated.”

Thornton, April 2012

 

“Garry was very professional and helpful. He also marketed the house very well-we feel it’s one of the reasons it sold so quickly.”

Why You Need Proper Representation from Real Estate Professionals

Our belief – one of our CORE beliefs – is that consumers are best served through proper representation from a licensed professional.

For most, buying or selling a home is an infrequent transaction with enormous financial and emotional considerations.

It’s stressful, emotionally-charged and high-stakes. Having a real estate professional central to the process of pricing, listing, selling and purchasing a home is important; real estate is not entertainment, and it’s not a game – bad data, inaccurate “value estimates,” and inflating inventory levels on websites creates confusion about what’s really happening in a market.

We understand that serious consumers want the real facts about a market. And we understand that these consumers also want to find a professional who can clearly articulate what these facts mean to their personal situation.

Connecting with a local real estate professional, a professional that’s immersed in local trends. Well versed in neighborhood nuances. Someone who can take the science of real data and apply it to the art of local real estate.

For sellers, this professional is someone who can navigate changing markets deftly and help price a home appropriately. Someone that helps ensure a smooth ride all the way from contract acceptance to settlement.

For buyers, this professional is a sounding board during their search, and their advocate during contract negotiations all the way to the first day in a new home.

Ultimately, there is a lot more than search to consider throughout the course of a transaction.

Pricing. Negotiations. Offers. Counter-Offers. Contracts the size of novellas. Addenda. Inspections. Appraisals. Financing. Contingencies. Walkthroughs. Punch Lists. The list goes on and on and on. Navigating all of this takes skill and determination, and we are the licensed real estate professionals. Just the folks that can help.

After all, it’s what we do for a living, 24-7, 365.
