Is the News Keeping You from... How many times have we listened to the news to get information about road conditions, future weather predictions, stocks, jobs, gasoline prices, whose going to win in 2016...? The list goes on and on. In every profession there are forecasters and analysts.  How often are they right?  Probably no more than the weather forecaster predicting next weeks weather...or next year's winner of the Super Bowl.  But, we listen to them.  They make a living talking about their expert opinions in their chosen profession. The same thing occurs in my profession; real estate.  We hear analysts predicting the future of interest rates, foreclosures, future new home construction...the list goes on. We listened to the doomsayers talk about how impossible it will be for future ...

Offering Less and Paying More When you hire the right Buyer's Agent you will know their expertise, experience and knowledge of the local market will guide you to make the right decisions. You can expect the right agent to know the market and value of properties.  You can expect them to know whether a property is priced right or over-priced.  (Not much chance a property is under-priced but I did put one under contract today that was worth almost double the asking price!) In Colorado we are able to check county records and know when and how much someone paid for their home.  We know if the market is appreciating or depreciating.  We know which areas appreciate faster than others. A Buyer's Agent that has expertise in negotiating will guide you towards different offers; one that is low-bal...
