I was lucky enough to be invited to The Colorado Golf Club for lunch and a tour today.

Colorado Golf Club

They have 7 spec homes ready for purchase that are either finished or almost complete. My personal favorite was located at 7935 Forest Keep Circle, Parker, Colorado. The house is tucked back in the trees and located at the end of a long winding driveway. Plenty of privacy! The finishes and layout of the house were perfect for a family or even empty nesters. You definitely get the “WOW” affect when you drive up and enter the home. There was obviously a lot of thought, preparation and craftsmanship involved in building and situating this home on the lot. See the virtual tour here.

I will be posting a full review of the tour and amenities of The Colorado Golf Club soon.

Sellers and Short Sale real estate. (Part 1)

Loan Denied

If you are considering making an offer on or selling your home as a short sale you better think again and at the very least know what you are about to get yourself into. Your real chances of getting to closing and completing a successful closing are very slim. In my opinion and from my experience the real chance of getting to closing on a short sale real estate deal is less than 10%. I’ve worked short sales from start to finish many times on both sides of the transaction as a buyer’s agent and a seller’s agent and both STINK.

SELLERS:

• The FIRST thing to do if you think you might be in a short sale situation is get a real “CMA” (Competitive Market Analysis) from a reliable no “BS” real estate broker that is not afraid to tell you the truth. You are not in a position to have a broker waste your time you need action and real numbers of what the house should sell for.

• Selling short sale real estate and homes from the listing side or seller’s agent side is probably the most difficult. This is a dirty game and there are basically NO rules. The Colorado real estate contract and dates on those contracts mean nothing to the banks and their loss mitigation department. Just because you get a contract that says the buyer wants to close in 45 days don’t automatically assume the bank cares a hoot about their wants and your needs.

Quick Example of Banks not working Short Sales properly:

• I had a home listed for sale in Saddle Rock Golf Club this year for $315,000. We received an offer for $295,000 which the bank told us was too low. They would not accept the offer so they decided to not allow the short sale. The property sold two days later in foreclosure for $250,000. Their stubbornness cost them $45,000 and a family their dignity.

This is a cool park for kids. There is a play set for all ages. We have been taking our kids here on a regular basis for years and they love it. We have even visited the park before school if we are up early and need to get a little of the crazies out of our son before school time.There is usually a parent or two standing around to carry on a conversation with to help the time pass too.

• Year round playground equipment.
• Great covered picnic area.
• Summer time water slide and pool area. This is usually open around Memorial Day until Labor Day.
• Gazebo
• Large grassy area for playing.
• Festivals,Carnivals, Art Shows, Church Picnics and more…
• Ice Cream shop across the street plus plenty of restaurants in town to feed yourself after all the fun.
  

It can get crowded in the warmer months and especially when school lets out. I think a lot of parents bring their kids there after school to wear them out before heading home. I know we do this a lot.
