I wanted to respond to a question a buyer had on one of my associates listings, but the post was deleted by accident. I don't want to appear insensitive, so I wanted to post this for All Buyers.
This is a very frustrating market for buyers, highly competitive, and very much a Sellers market. Anytime a seller has multiple offers, they review all offers, and ultimately the seller decides which offer best meets their wants and needs. It isn't always about price, there can be many factors taken into consideration in which offer to accept, and in this market, some buyers are willing to forgo inspections, surveys, appraisals, asking for additional personal property etc. So I understand how disppointing it can be for buyers in this market, and wish you all the best moving forward!

I recently had a Real Estate Contract terminated due to a finished basement that was not permitted, so I thought it might be helpful to alert buyers and sellers as to the importance of pulling permits. When purchasing a home with a finished basement, the first place to look to see if it was permitted is the public record. If it shows Finished under basement it most likely was permitted.

The Summer Sales have started with a Fury! Interest Rates are at an all time low, and Inventory continues to be a challenge. If you are in the market to purchase a home, it's of utmost importance to contact your Bank or a mortgage lender to get pre approved. When making an offer, most sellers want to see a lender letter stating that you are pre approved for the amount you are offering. [ 193 more words ]

COVID 19 How does it Impact Real Estate ?
It’s been a rough month for us all, and perhaps our world will never be quite the same. Remember 911 ? We made a lot of changes in the way we live following that event, mostly for the good ! I believe this will also impact the way we live our lives, care about each other, and realize how important others are in our lives.

Now that you have been home for at least 1 month, how do you like your surroundings? This really emphasized how important it is to like where your living… Right? I’ve noticed a lot of home improvement, not only in my own place, but others as well!

I do believe Real Estate just hit a pause button, and as soon as we are allowed to show homes again, there will be a high demand! Also I believe there will be an uptick in homes for sale, which will help stabilize the supply and demand issue we have had the past couple of years.

Builders are offering higher incentives to move their inventory, always signifies to me that they have slowed down in sales , understandably. Please take your Realtor with you, when buying a new home, we represent your side, the builder contracts and sales staff work in favor of the builder, it’s best if you have someone who is YOUR advocate. Often times we can negotiate a better deal on your behalf, and remember the builder (seller) pays the Realtor. At Walter Realty and most Brokerages the buyer is not charged for real estate services, so why not have your own representative?

The government seems to be doing all it can to help everyone stay afloat, but let’s face the facts, we have all felt an impact with this pandemic. My heart goes out to those who have lost love ones, and who had to battle this virus. A heartfelt Thanks to all the nurses , doctors, hospital workers, first res-ponders who have been on the front lines of this, I pray it ends soon.

If it ends soon, I think we can recover, but the longer it last, the more likely it will impact real estate. I will keep you posted. Until then Stay safe and healthy, I wish you all the best, keep the Faith, better days ahead!

This has been a challenging year for me as a Broker. I always try my best to do what's right for my clients, which sometimes means walking away from a deal. This year alone, I have had multiple clients change their minds, and although I have put a lot of time and energy into making a deal happen, at the end of the day, it has to be right for the client.

I have been talking for quite sometime about the market changing, and the need for a correction in Colorado. Home prices have soared over the last couple of years, However Salaries have not had the same gains. The reason for the steady increase in prices had a lot to do with supply and demand. Sellers were experiencing capital gains, sometimes $100K+ from when they purchased. [ 470 more words ]
