This remote 240 acres in Teller County, Colorado, sold faster by far than most: in months, compared to the over two years similar properties can take to sell. Better yet, Lisa brought the sellers multiple offers. And best of all? Lisa made this a record-setting sale: it sold at a higher dollar-per-acre than any previous Teller County non-commercial land sale in Colorado history.
Was this just an easy sale, or good luck? Not at all. This was a complex transaction with six smart, strong-willed sellers who did not agree on much, and Lisa stayed in close communication with them all. She took the time and made the effort to show this remote property in person to all prospects. She worked proactively to create interest in the property, just as she created beautiful marketing she personally presented to select brokers and prospects alike, working tirelessly to give the property maximum breadth and depth of exposure and to bring the sellers an outcome that exceeded their expectations.
With speed and focus, Lisa devoted herself to transforming dramatically this somewhat dated property so that it presented beautifully in the market. With her keen eye for design and her knowledge of what sells in the market, Lisa led the charge decluttering, streamlining furnishings, and staging strategically for a fast, top-dollar sale. Lisa ensured the marketing featured gorgeous photos & video to showcase the most important selling points of the home and location.
As she loves to do, Lisa launched this listing with laser focus on success, making constant proactive calls to prospects and brokers alike, to ignite enthusiasm for the listing, right out of the gates. After generating quick, strong interest in the property, Lisa negotiated to bring an immediate, clean, full-price offer— with numerous prospective buyers left disappointed and the seller simply delighted.
This home sold faster and higher than similar homes just blocks away— even faster and higher than larger homes with more rooms, larger yards, and equal or better views. Lisa pulled out all the stops, streamlined and staged to perfection, and prepped it for a dramatic launch. With stunning marketing, vast exposure, and proactive calls to prospective buyers and other brokers, Lisa drew crowds to this listing on day one. The offers came in fast, giving the sellers fabulous options from which to choose.
Under contract in three days. Asked $900,000. Received multiple offers ahead of the competing homes in the neighborhood. Closed at $1,016,000. (Some of those bigger neighboring homes ultimately sold weeks to months later, for under $900,000!) What was the success secret for this one? Transformative staging, strategic pricing, and complete focus on Lisa’s part.
Lisa’s smart, strategic approach and spot-on staging resulted in the perfect transformation of this lived-in family home, dropping the jaws of the sellers. Taking a property from its everyday reality to “showtime ready” is one of Lisa’ unique talents, and she loves to wow every prospective buyer who walks in the door. And yet again, she did just that. (It’s not uncommon for Lisa’s sellers to say, “Wait a minute. The house looks more amazing than ever before. Do we really want to move?”)
Lisa’s focus, hard work, proactive communication with other brokers about this property coming to market, and smart pricing brought these sellers an immediate full-price offer and the smooth, successful closing they wanted. This was at a time when rates were rising, buyers were getting wary, and days on market were adding up for most listings. Lisa beat the trends.
Lisa’s extensive transformation of this former rental property took it from dreary, cluttered, and dated to fresh, bright, stylish, and a home the market absolutely loved. Numerous buyers fought fast and hard to buy this property, with multiple over-asking-price offers, some approaching 20% over asking price.
Similar nearby properties were sitting on the market at this time, dropping their prices. And the day this listing launched? Colorado Springs saw one of the most damaging heavy snows in years, dropping tree limbs and making local travel treacherous. But Lisa’s marketing drew crowds all the same, with overlapping showings all weekend. Lisa’s happy sellers were able to take their pick of offers, choosing not the highest offer, but the one they liked best for speed and ease of closing. Yet another clean, fast, high, trend-beating sale for Lisa and her sellers.
After having been listed unsuccessfully with a different broker during some of the best historic months in the real estate market for sellers, this property had had disappointing showing activity and no good offers; it needed help. When Lisa was hired as the new listing agent, she rolled up her sleeves, staged extensively, created thoughtful marketing to showcase the best aspects of the property inside & out, and worked proactively to great success: in a then-declining and slowing market, Lisa brought multiple over-asking-price offers immediately and thrilled the seller with a fast, successful sale.
Although this property was less expensive than many Lisa lists, she treats all sellers with the utmost respect, focus, and care, demonstrating her commitment to the philosophy that luxury is not about a price point but about a high level of service to each client.
