This is how buyers feel when looking for a house...

Let's chat.

I probably laughed way too hard at this. 🤣 Happy Friday everyone!

Believe it or not, this is an *actual* letter of explanation to an underwriter who needed to verify all household income. They knew he wasn’t married, but they had to verify that he didn’t have a live-in partner. 🤣

This might be one of the coolest things ever, lol!

Happy Monday, Castle Rock! Here is your update for the past 10 days. We continue to see an increase in new listings, yay! Everything else is about the same and we are still selling at an average of 3% above list price. We are starting to notice a DECREASE in the number of multiple offers as summer comes to an end, so if you have been thinking of buying, now may be a good time for us to start chatting! 303-356-4490

Katie Casinger, Realtor with Keller Williams Advisors Realty Welcome! I am a REALTOR® Dayton, OH, a real estate investment company owner.

The most common buyer concerns are: getting a house, being homeless in the process, and paying crazy amounts. I have solutions! I work with lenders who have ZERO fees, I have lenders who can get you approved through underwriting before you even make an offer so that your closing timeline is short and competitive, and I'm a certified agent with Homeward which allows you to buy WITH CASH... BEFORE you sell your home. If you have concerns and questions about buying or selling, I have solutions. :)

Per the South Metro Denver Realtor Association, we currently have 2 weeks of inventory. This time last year we had 7 weeks. A balanced market is 6 MONTHS worth of inventory. We are hurting for homes and we can't go on Amazon and order more. If you've been thinking of selling, now is the time to get top dollar. Call me and let's discuss your options!

SMDRA Statistics Video for April 2021 SMDRA Statistics for April 2021 in animated video format.

Sold prices have crept back up again and are holding at an average of 5% over-asking, with some homes reaching as high as 15% over the asking price. That equates to about $83,000 MORE on a $550,000 home. If you are a buyer, I have competitive options for you to help you succeed in your offer!

Here is your 10-day update for Castle Rock. We are back within our typical average price range, however we've had an uptick in the average list-to-sold ratios. It's been sitting at buyers paying 3% above asking on average, and is now showing 6%. What that means is if the average price is roughly $670k, then you can expect to pay on average $40k over asking.

Yay for a slight uptick in new listings!! 👏👏👏

NOW is the best time to sell to get top dollar. Do not wait! Let's talk about your options. 303-356-4490

CASTLE ROCK! Listen up... some BIG changes!
From the last time I checked 2 weeks ago:

🔥Active listings has remained in the 60s (no change)
🔥New contracts/pending homes jumped up from 60s to 90s
🔥SOLD/closed homes went DOWN from 50s to 30s
🔥🔥🔥Average closed price jumped WAY up from $673k to $991k!!!😳😳😳
🔥Lowest price sold was $570k
🔥On average homes are still selling 3% above the list price. This is NOT neighborhood specific. Some neighborhoods are higher and some are lower, that's just the average.

To summarize, we need more homes to sell and we can't go on Amazon and order more. Now is the best time to sell your home for top $$! If you are worried about not finding something to buy, CALL ME, I have options for you to solve that!! 303-356-4490

The average price of homes sold in Castle Rock has INCREASED by $33,000 since Feb. The most common question I hear from buyers is... "how much over asking am I going to have to pay?" We are currently sitting at an average 103% sold price vs. list price. Which means, you can expect to pay somewhere around 3% over asking, or $15,000 over on a $500,000 home. This is the BEST time to sell to get the most equity out of your home. We have buyers! Let's chat! Call/Text 303-356-4490

Happy Easter!!

The mailman got me this morning before I even finished my coffee...

He rotated the lock on my mailbox. I was extremely confused why my key was not working this morning. I was not ready for that. 🙄

Happy April 1st everyone!! The sun is shining and it is BEAUTIFUL outside!! 😁

This graphic is from a lender I work with. If you are worried about selling and not having a place to go due to low inventory, I can help you buy BEFORE you sell! The cost of waiting is too high!
