The August DMAR report shows more inventory, longer days on market, and price drops on over HALF of active listings. Pair that with lower interest rates, and buyers finally have some negotiating power back. 💪 Let’s run the numbers to see what this means for YOUR monthly payment 📲 #DenverRealEstate #DMAR #ColoradoHomes #BuyersMarket #CaraSellsColorado

Right now might actually be one of the best times to buy a home in the Denver area. There are over 14,000 homes on the market—the most we’ve seen in over a decade—which means way more options and way less competition. Homes are sitting a bit longer, too, giving buyers a chance to breathe, think, and negotiate. That could mean things like closing cost help, repairs, or even a better price. The crazy bidding wars we saw the past few years? Not so much anymore. Prices have stayed pretty steady, especially for single-family homes, and some condos and townhomes are even down a bit from last year. So while we’re not seeing a crash, we are seeing a more balanced market—which is a big win for buyers. And if you’re thinking of waiting for rates to drop, keep in mind that the longer you wait, the more you might end up paying overall. With more homes to choose from and a little extra leverage on your side, this could be a smart window to make your move. #DenverRealEstate #DenverHomes #BuyerMarket #HomeBuyingTips #HousingUpdate #BuySmart #ColoradoRealEstate #RealEstate2025 #MoreChoicesLessStress #letsfindyourhome #coloradorealestate

A little getaway with my crew to NM. Love it here so much

So excited for my clients to snag this cutie house with 6 bedrooms and tons of living space. We went up against multiple offers but I was able to get them under contract using strong negotiation and communication skills. Such a cool house for a great price. #negotiator #denverrealestate #undercontract #firsttimehomeowner

It was a good day to escape the heat and the news headlines. Nederland is one of my favorite mountain towns 🥰

Congratulations to this adorable couple on buying their first home!! So excited for them to be able to buy a home for only a few hundred more monthly payment than they were paying for rent! Smart move guys! Thanks for letting me be a part of it!! #firsttimehomebuyer #coloradofirsttimehomebuyer #startrealestate #carasellscolorado #letsgo #sold #homeowners #coloradorealestate

My little home office sits right off the deck and this creature just came to say hello. I was on the phone with a sales rep for some new builds my clients are interested in and I took the pictures while I was chatting. 😂 so glad these phones can take pics while on speaker phone. Sometimes nature swoops in and makes everything feel like it’s all going to be more than good. #nature #naturetherapy #butterflies #homeoffice #monarchbutterfly #itsallgood #grateful

Congrats to my client for landing a great deal on this cutie condo in Lakewood! In unit laundry, garden level for cool summer temps, great location and close to everything. And to top it off, she only needs to bring $1000 to the closing table. #condo #denvercondos #denverrealtor #firsttimehomebuyer #downpaymentassistance #startrealestate #coloradofirsttimehomebuyer #undercontract

This handsome little devil was built in 1888 and is located in one of Denver’s original neighborhoods. Sunnyside has a small neighborhood feel and is full of vibrant shops and restaurants. With its close proximity to downtown, Sunnyside is a great family oriented community with lots of super cute and cool homes. #sunnyside #showings #denver #cutehomes #denverrealtor #yourrealtor #realestatesales

This home is impressive. Meticulously maintained and clean as a whistle. Hot water baseboards heating, heat pump AC, two water heaters. This was a fun inspection day. #inspectionday #maticulous #wellmaintained #beautifull #cutehome

Brunch with my seed swap pals. Thanks @landisyourland for the soil blocking demo and amazing vegan spread!

This 1960’s home is to die for. Full of upgrades while classic charm remains - it’s a true gem. Huge backyard for entertaining, a detached garage, 5 beds and 3 baths, sooo much storage. Excited for my clients to call this beauty home! We were able to get them a significant rate buy down paid for by the seller too! #coloradorealestate #carasellscolorado #sellerconcessions #ratebuydown #firsttimehomebuyer

Sometimes home inspections reveal bad news. That’s why we have everything checked out. My clients found out the home they were under contract on had structural issues yesterday. We switch gears quickly and had them under contract on a new home in less than 24 hours, keeping their same closing date, thanks to Eric Richter, Mortgage Loan Officer Things happen for a reason and I’m so thrilled my clients were able to avoid major issues down the road.

Inspection and listing appointment day. Usually I pack a lunch but sometimes that doesn’t happen 😂 #busyrealtor #realtor4life #gasstationlunch #junkfood #inspectionday #listingappointment #lovemyjob

And just like that… my sweet clients are under contract! Second family this week to find their dream home and also get $10k for a rate buy down paid for by the seller, bringing their rate down significantly and making their monthly payment much more affordable. Who can I help next? #ratebuydown #negotiator #coloradorealtor #carasellscolorado

So excited to have found the perfect home for my amazing clients to make all the memories in! I was able to negotiate the seller to pay for $10k a rate buy down, which significantly lowers their monthly payment. Special thanks to Eric Richter, Mortgage Loan Officer for working together to get our buyers the absolute best possible service and rate!

So much yumminess and giggles. Girl time is the best time. #galentinesday #fondue #snacks #girls

I see the most hilarious things when showing homes. My clients took one look at this and said “sold!!” Jokingly of course. Effort is great but staging needs to create an emotion. A sense of home, where the buyer can picture themselves living there.

Brian and I go out almost every weekend to find things we’ve never seen. Whether it be Denver, mountain towns, suburbs, it doesn’t really matter. Living where we live gives us so many opportunities to get out for the day and explore. #lovewhereyoulive #coloradolife #explore #denver #santafeartdistrict #citylife #getout

Inspection days are my favorite! My clients get to see their new home again, I get to hang and visit with them and answer questions, and we get to find fun surprises that the inspector gets to figure out. #homeinspection #whatthehell #undercontract #inspectionday #realestateinvesting #surprise

Super excited for my clients for contracting on this incredible home! We connected through social media, met in person last week and are under contract on their dream home in less than a week! They will only be bringing $5000 to closing and their down payment is covered with down payment assistance! Thanks Eric Richter, Mortgage Loan Officer for all your help getting this couple preapproved and ready for their home purchase. They will be moved in before Christmas! 🎄 #homefortheholidays #denverrealestatemarket #coloradorealestateagent #letsgo

You guys. It’s time! If you want to beat the crazy spring market and get into homeowner, let’s do it. The rates are not coming down anytime soon. Let’s chat about a plan moving forward to start building equity and wealth! #stopwaiting #nowisthetime #letsdothis #homeownership
