Colorado Real Estate Values Shifting

October 20, 2018 By Laura Stewart

NOW is a Great Time to Buy a Home!

Finally there is good news for buyers in Colorado!!

The market has begun to correct-after 8 years of escalating prices-a softening of prices has been detected over the last 12 weeks! This is fantastic news especially for first time buyers who were being priced out of the market thanks to the escalating prices paired with the bidding wars that have been abundant for years!

The bad news is that the federal government has raised interest rates three times in 2018.

The prediction is that interest rates will continue to rise through out 2019 as well, to help balance the market. That said most buyers are doing well financially with rates ranging from 5% to 5.25% in general. To be honest there are up to 357 variables that determine the interest rate a buyer qualifies for so NOW is the time to get qualified with a honorable lender!

Colorado’s real estate market is strong, thanks to the continued demand
for housing paired with the shortage of housing available.

Rental rates continue to rise due to the shortage of rentals available to accommodate the demand as well. Most individuals would be well served to purchase rather than rent so they can establish stability & predictability in their lives and begin gaining equity for their futures!

Contact me today to discuss this exciting change and how it may be a benefit for you in your path of becoming a home owner!

Sincerely,
Laura Stewart

Testimonials

Best Realtor in Colorado!

We just bought a town home in the Highlands Ranch area. Laura was an absolute pleasure to work with and very responsive to our questions and concerns. She was the best real estate agent we have ever had; we have bought 7 homes over the years. Laura went above and beyond what a regular agent would do, anticipating and researching issues before they occurred. We would recommend Laura wholeheartedly to anyone buying or selling a property.

Jean & Curt

Highlands Ranch Realtor

My wife and I bought a house in Highlands Ranch about 16 months ago. Laura Stewart was great to work with – very knowledgeable about real estate and housing in general, always a call or email away and more than willing to show us whatever house we wanted to see. Would strongly recommend!

Chelsea & Andy, First Time Home Owners

Real Estate Professional!

Laura has guided me through two home purchases and one successful home sale. She is extremely knowledgeable, customer service oriented, skilled and ethical. I am recommending her to my family members and friends! She has never let me down and goes above and beyond to make your home dreams come true!

Incredible Agent

Laura is absolutely incredible. She is literally the best agent in Colorado. Laura will NEVER steer you in the wrong direction. When looking at houses, she points out stuff that’s bad, give you her open and honest feedback, is ALWAYS willing to meet you to view a property, and NEVER makes you feel pressured when thinking about buying a property. Laura helped me and my girlfriend purchase our first house. We were the first ones to view it (thanks to Laura) and first ones to get the offer in on the house. Laura’s negotiation skills throughout the whole process were phenomenal. She also has a phone book/contact list of individuals who are top notch (from lenders to home inspectors to structural engineers). We literally went with all of her recommendations and couldn’t be happier. Even after we purchased our home Laura continues to help us with advice/service. If you want an incredible agent, look no further!

Paul & Dana, First Time Home Owners

She always made herself available

Laura opened my eyes to what a real estate agent really should be. She always made herself available during our house hunt and provided an abundance of needed information ranging from interior design to construction techniques. Laura is our real estate agent moving forward but we will share her with you.

There is not a better realtor out there

We connected with Laura after moving from Arizona as she was highly recommended by family. With Laura’s help, we were able to sell our townhouse for more than asking price and move into our dream home in less than 30 days. I work in the mortgage industry and deal with Realtors on a daily basis. There is not a better realtor out there. I am impressed with Laura’s knowledge of the recent changes in the mortgage industry, and would not want to navigate the current market with anyone else. I am confident in sending friends and family to Laura as I know they’re in good hands.

We love Laura and would not even consider using someone else

Laura helped us purchase our last home and we are currently working with her to sell it and purchase our next home. There is a reason why Laura is a top realtor in the area. She is incredibly knowledgeable with the Denver market. She is always prepared when we meet. She has great knowledge of what to look for and in helping us narrow down houses that won’t work. She seems to be available 24-7 (not sure how she does that?) We love Laura and would not even consider using someone else.

Sam and Lanier

She will work tirelessly

In my years of working with Laura on multiple transactions, I have admired her integrity, ability to accomplish and exceed her client’s needs and wants.

Additionally her knowledge of the market and her negotiating skills are top notch. She will work tirelessly to make things happen. She is truly a pleasure to work with.
