There are ways to save time, money and effort
when buying real estate.

First, the Broker you work with should be experienced and knowledgeable in the marketplace. If they are familiar with the homes in the Denver market and they know neighborhood values, they can help you determine which Denver properties are fairly priced and in good condition before you start your real estate search. Everyone at The Denver Team works exclusively in the Denver area so, we know the territory better than anyone.

Before you even visit our city, we can email pictures with detailed information for all Denver homes that meet your criteria.

We can also show you photos of every home in the MLS to save you time and eliminate looking at properties that do not meet your real estate criteria.

The Real Estate Broker you select should offer Buyer Agency to you, which is an arrangement where the Broker actively looks after your best interests, but usually gets paid by the Seller. This eliminates that age-old question in real estate transactions, “Just who is my Broker representing … me or the seller?” We offer Buyer Agency to all of our homebuyers because it allows us to actively negotiate the best deal for them.

A good Broker will recommend that you pre-qualify for a mortgage before you look at homes to be sure you are looking in the appropriate price range and to strengthen your bargaining position when you locate the home you wish to buy. If your offer to the Seller includes a letter from your Lender indicating that you already qualify for the loan, the Seller will take you more seriously. We have friendly, helpful Denver Lenders who offer the most competitive rates and who can usually pre-qualify you in a 10-minute phone call.

If you don’t find the perfect Denver home right away, you’ll want to be notified about new homes that come on the market. We are happy to enroll you in our exclusive Buying Buddy System to email you new Denver listings within seconds after they come on the market. We want you to have first pick of the best properties in the Denver area!

When you find the home you want to buy, make your offer as ‘clean’ as possible, with only necessary contingencies. The less the Seller needs to worry about, the better. Also, be prepared to compromise on issues like closing/possession dates in exchange for the Seller agreeing to your price (or vice versa).

Try composing a letter about you, your family and why you want the home to submit with your offer. It ‘humanizes’ the offer to the Sellers and may help them feel good about accepting your contract.

These are just a few hints that we use to insure your home buying experience is pleasant and profitable.
