Under Contract - Cross Creek - Aurora, CO   80018

 

Cross Creek Home

In this price point, homes go under contract in HOURS, not days, and buyers must be ready to write an offer once they find the right home.     The day we found this home in Cross Creek, there were a couple homes these buyers were very interested in, and quite the decision on which to choose.      It was not long after our showings, an email was received from one of the listing agents stating they had accepted an offer.    The decision had been made for these buyers!

 

Inspection and appraisal has been complete and closing has been set for end of June.    Was wondering if we would get past the inspection, as radon levels were found much higher than I have ever seen.   Radon came in at 29.1, and the buyer was worried whether or not the levels could be reduced to acceptable levels prior to closing.   After some conversation with an EPA radon mitigation company, the fan that will be installed will reduce the levels within a week or two.     They include a re-test with their guarantee and gave these buyers peace of mind.

 

 

Cross Creek is located in Eastern Aurora off Gun Club Road & 6th Parkway just East of Buckley Air Force Base.   This is also a great neighborhood to choose when you have a job in which you travel, as it is a short 15 minute drive to DIA.   Homes in this neighborhood are newer - ranging from 1994 to 2012, ranging from 2,389 to 4,754 square feet and you will find two stories as well as ranch homes.   Residents also love this community due to the local pool.

Hello Joan!!!

 That's a great looking house.  It continues to amaze me how the houses in your market fly.  Those radon levels are high!!!  We have radon in this area due to our rocky terrain as well, but never that high!  As long as mitagation is done, we can usually move past that objection.  I've been off for awhile, good to be back!

Hi Joan, congratulations. Radon is one of those things can be mitigated quite successfully. Good that your folks have a level head and understand these things. I'd be curious to know if the other homes in the neighborhood have been tested - it would be a good idea for all them to get it done. Just to be on the safe side.

I've never encountered a buyer in Sacramento who wanted a radon test but then it's rare to find a basement here. If there is a basement, it's probably what we call a 1/4 with a slab.

Joan: Congrats and good to hear the very high Radon level is going to get resolved. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing to closing once that is regulated.

Joan, these Buyers could have very easily walked a way from this property with that high Radon reading, but it goes to show a good Realtor like you will look for solutions in stead of taking the easy way out and moving on to the next property.

That is high, Joan. But the fanntherapy should help the problem. Good luck with the rest of the transaction.

Joan-I know little about radon. Will the fan be need as an on-going mitigating element? Glad a solution was found.

Wayne, yes the radon fan needs to be installed, then the homeowner will monitor to make sure it continues to operate properly.    There is a 10 year warranty.
