Erik & Karolina: Former Chicagoans, Newest Englewood Residents



Erik and Karolina were referred to me by their agent in Chicago named Mike. Their agent in Chicago knew of me because of my great past clients and friends, Dave and Betsy (Thank you!). Mike called me up and said he had a friend who was moving to the area and wanted to see some stuff over the weekend. I quickly got on the phone and set up a call with Erik to chat about his needs. He told me he was flying into Denver the following day and had a property picked out that he wanted to check out!


We went to look at the house and it seemed to be a great fit for them; however, just to make sure we were doing our due diligence, we went ahead and scheduled 6 other houses the following day so they could be sure of their decision. We spent the next day together checking out some other great properties in different areas, only to finally land on the fact that the original property that they came out to see was exactly the right home for them.


We got together an offer and submitted it over to the seller. After a bit of back and forth, we ended up under contract at a great below-list price for the property. Additionally, we were able to negotiate in $50,000 in concessions up front in order to help Erik and Karolina with an interest rate buy-down! Once under contract, the property appraised for well-above the contract price AND we were able to negotiate almost every single thing that came up on the inspection.


Our original offer was actually written contingent upon the sale of their unit in Chicago as well with a 60 day close. As soon as they went under contract in Colorado, they immediately had to turn around and get their home in Chicago listed. After being on the market for about two weeks, they did a price reduction and ended up getting a full-price offer on their home in Chicago!


Now all that was left to do was twiddle our thumbs and make sure that that deal(s) closed! Soon enough, their Chicago home closed and they were able to close on their new Colorado home! Overall, this could not have been a better deal for these two lovely humans!


Erik & Karolina - I am so excited for you two and wishing you all the best! I am really excited to get to know you both better and spend time with you here in Denver!
