realtor: Did a Door Knob Ever Sell a House? - 11/26/11 10:11 AM
Did a Door Knob Ever Sell a House? Posted on November 25, 2011 by Dena Stevens (719) 369.9087 Did a Door Knob Ever Sell a House?
Sellers are always sure that the tiniest detail in their house is going to help sell the property. Sellers are proudly showing off drawer pulls, ceiling fans, a blooming bush or other details of special attention. Think about it, have you ever purchased a house because of the decorative shelf in a bedroom? Probably not.
Details help impress potential buyers, not always in a good way. What if the buyer doesn’t want to do yard … (10 comments)

realtor: Happy Thanksgiving from Canon City Colorado - 11/24/11 09:49 AM
As the end of 2011 approaches I thought I’d take this time to thank all of you. It’s been a year of transformation for me and for some of you as well. I suppose 2011 will go down in history as a difficult year or at least a transforming one. And maybe a little more challenging to find things to be thankful for.
One of the good things about 2011 was reconnecting with old friends. As many of you know I’ve embraced “Social Media.” Tools like Facebook have united me with new friends but plenty of old … (1 comments)

Why would anybody want to become a real estate agent now? Let’s face it 2011 really isn’t going to end much better than 2010 did as far as sales go. But like anything else if you look for the silver lining you can find one.
Below is a list of reasons you should think about getting your real estate license.
1) Seasoned agents are retiring and leaving the business. They are leaving behind buyers and sellers who will still … (8 comments)

realtor: Real Estate Deals Are About the Timing - 10/19/11 11:07 PM
It’s all about “the right deal at the right time.” We’ve all heard this before, right? With supply and demand being out of balance for the last few years it’s been about the “right deal.” Buyers want something for nothing of course and sellers think they have gold in their property, but when the two come together it is the “right deal.”
My first broker use to say if the buyer comes up a little in the price and the seller comes down a little you’ve got the right price.
But it’s also about the timing. In a recent article … (5 comments)

realtor: Why Real Estate is Local - 07/28/11 09:47 AM
Why real estate is local A while back my sister called me in a panic. She was on a real estate web site that claims to give you an “estimate” of your houses worth. It’s a nationally known site that I’m not going to give credit to but you would recognize the name if I did tell you. And yes, you will find my name on this site, not because I endorse it but because people find me there. I like to think I offer common sense over what ever this site is selling. At the time my sister lived several … (9 comments)

realtor: A REALTOR living in Fremont County Colorado - 05/11/11 09:55 PM
This week, so far, has been a wild and wooley one in Fremont County, at least for me. Last weekend was the Apple Blossom Festival in Canon City. The town doubles in size with visitors - and we love it! Monday I had a closing on a small 2.5 acre vacant land parcel and Weds I had a closing on a large ranch and house and inbetween was a tour of homes. One of my listings is getting so many showings I should charge admission! And over the course of 3 days I had a B.P.O (brokers price opinion) that took more time that … (3 comments)

realtor: Kudos to Kristal Kraft - 03/24/07 06:57 PM
We all know and respect Active Rains own Kristal Kraft but now every Realtor in Colorado should know her as well. The Colorado Realtor Magazine March/April issue has an article "Working in a Slower Market, pricing makes a difference", by Henry Springs. For those of you who get this magazine please turn to page 14.
Kristal shares her wisdom on Competitive Market Analysis Program "Multiple showings and no contract and no offers usually mean you have to lower the price, says Kraft. She's encountered prospects that have unreasonable expectations. It usually meant the property is not realistically listed, the price in not … (5 comments)
