Sand Creek Cares - Snack Drive!

9/21/2023

0 Comments

 
What an outstanding success! We knew snacks were a huge need within our local elementary school, but when we launched the food drive we had no idea what an outpouring of tangible love and support we would receive. Together with the community we were able to provide thousands of dollars worth of snacks for student struggling with food scarcity.

It's hard to image a child consistently going hungry at school, especially with the implementation of SB22-087 which provides free lunch to all children enrolled in Colorado public schools. But it's an unfortunate reality that persists.

The "why" behind that is a conversation for another day, but regardless, children should be able to focus on learning at school and not their hungry tummies...grownup issues should not not keep them from successful, happy days being able to absorb excellent education in their formative years. And if a granola bar or baggie of Golf Fish will put a smile on their face and help them grow and focus, it's a JOY to be able to make that happen.

The teachers asked, the community delivered. And it was a joy to be able to facilitate that.

Luxury Home Marketing

7/19/2021

0 Comments

 
Honored to receive this designation last week!
​
Every transaction holds a special place in my heart, but it’s the hard-to-sell homes (at every price point) and the ones with lots of moving back-end parts which I love the most…they are the ones that keep me up at night and make me excited to hop out of bed in the morning! They represent a challenge achieved and new levels of expertise to rise to.

For me, this lovely gold seal represents another one of those milestones achieved. The CLHMS designation reflects successful demonstration by an agent in working with homes at the Luxury level, defined as homes within the top 10% of their market.
​
While this seal shows proof of achievement, it’s also a heartwarming reminder of one of my core tenets: I feel strongly that Luxury level marketing is a mindset which can, and should, be extrapolated to every listing, regardless of price point. Every client deserves your best, and who you work with matters!

This is real estate...

7/7/2021

Closed both a house and a chapter of life for these clients today, and it was an honor to help them navigate this final phase together. There were many hours of elbow grease put into bringing this one to the market. Despite some updates we left for the new buyers, we were able to make this house SHINE and show it's true potential on the market. We went under contract listing weekend at $881,000 (with multiple offers in 2nd-5th place) and closed at a very strong $869,652 after a few inspection item concessions. Wishing my sellers all the best as they both begin a new phase of life...may you have joy and peace. And "M", I can't wait to help you find your new forever home!
XOXO

How to price your home for sale - data based real estate

6/15/2021

0 Comments

 
$499,000 - $499,999 - $500,000

Almost weekly I hear someone say “top agents KNOW that you should price at a nice, round number to catch buyers searching both above and below that price!”

It’s not a bad hypothesis; it sounds reasonable, but the sparse data we have leans gently in a different direction.
 
There are two issues with the “round model” pricing frequently touted as best standard of practice when pricing your home for sale: 


  1. Everyone buffers their search criteria to draw in comps above and below their target, so anyone starting their search at $800k isn’t likely going to miss a listing at $799k if it was actually something relevant.
  2. There have been decades worth of marketing data that support the $x.99 pricing model (over a round figure) which has become the default for virtually all retail sales. Unfortunately, most real estate pricing “best practices” comes in the form of a self-proclaimed expert’s opinion with limited/no data to back it up.
Back in 2019 I got tired of the pricing debate and went digging for any legitimate data sources I could cite for clients who really wanted to know…I built the attached graphs/summary table based on the numbers I pulled from the cited study, which was the most comprehensive I could find at the time. Take it with a grain of salt as it’s only one study and the data is fairly old, but it was well done and comprehensive as of the date of publication with nothing to suggest the model (if not the percentages) wouldn’t still be accurate. If nothing else it’s at least a step up from “well, everyone KNOWS…” 😉
