I have worked and lived in the area since the late ’70s and I have been working with real estate transactions for 35 of those years.
Sometimes things are not as they appear and the property you are really interested in may not turn out to be your best option. It may not be in your best financial interests. You need a Realtor that will be able to balance those interests and advise you on solid value, find good opportunities and work honestly for your long term interests.
I am ready to advise on things that will help sell your home. Many times those that have owned a home for a long period of time don’t see the small details that detract from a potential buyers interest. These small things creep into place over a long period of time. They may seem hardly noticeable, but can be a major point of contention from a home-buyer’s perspective.
I look forward to assisting any home seller, or home buyer in getting just what they want! Being a resident of the area for such a long time has allowed me to become acquainted with hundreds of people on a first name basis and they have confided in me to let them know when that right piece of property comes up for sale. There is no better satisfaction than seeing a client many years after a closing and having them tell me how pleased they are, still!
As I mentioned earlier, I have lived and worked in the Delta Colorado area for over 35 years. I have seen property values rise and fall multiple times over those same years, but I have always been optimistic about the long term value and quality of life this area offers. This is unquestionably the area of the county the the vast majority of people desire to live in. This trend will be confirmed as time goes on.
My personal interest in real estate goes back to my first home purchase in the early 1970s. My experience also includes the successful development of a small subdivision in the 1990s. I believe I can expertly advise on issues from both the prospective of a homeowner’s view and/or someone interested in possible future development potential. I am familiar with many City, Town and County codes and building requirements in the area.
Whether you’re buying or selling a home, contracts involve complex language and can be difficult to understand. I pride myself on attention to detail and I will take the time to assure everything is understood and meets with your satisfaction.
I belong to the Multiple Listing Service and as a Realtor and Broker can show you any listing currently on the market. The vast majority of property research is done on-line in today’s market and a full featured search tool is essential. I have chosen a web site search service I feel is better than most. You can easily perform thorough searches on several different areas of the Western Slope of Colorado. The search tool defaults to the Delta area but the whole southwest region of the state is available. Simply change your search criteria. It does not matter who a property may be listed with, so please feel free to contact me with the MLS# of any listing you are interested in.
Valuing ones home is a difficult task. It is human nature to think that your home is just a little more special than the others. The fact is, that every home for sale is being presented amongst hundreds of others who’s owners feel the very same way. Recent sales of like properties tells the true story! Or better yet, those currently under contract. A home has to be priced correctly in order to attract offers. Price is the single most important factor in attracting interest amongst those truly looking to purchase. It is said that a home that sits too long on the market was priced by an uninformed seller. If a home does not attract an offer within 60 days a price reduction should be seriously considered.
I believe I can offer a number of seller tips that are inexpensive, yet have big impact with potential buyers. Staging of a home for sale is very important and I can present many no cost suggestions.
