Where Belinda actually works
Two kinds of market, and the questions are not the same in each. Acreage turns on water, septic and access. A house on city services turns on district lines, build era and what the commute actually costs.
Elizabeth
Rolling grassland and big parcels, the center of the practice.
Elbert County
Horse property, working land and small ranches.
Centennial
South metro on city services, where the school district can change street by street.
Littleton
Established south metro, from downtown blocks to post-war subdivisions.
Parker
Subdivision homes and the acreage on the edge of town.
Castle Rock
Between the metro and the country, with the trade-offs of both.
Questions worth answering before you buy or sell
Sourced to the state and the county, not summarized from somebody else's blog.
What a Colorado well permit actually allows
On most parcels under 35 acres the standard exempt well permit allows household use inside one home and no outdoor use. How to check before you offer.
Selling acreage you have owned for decades
Long tenure changes the order of a sale. The paperwork predates current rules, the outbuildings are full, and two inspections have lead times that set closing.
How many horses can you keep in Elbert County?
Elbert County allows one horse per half acre in most residential zoning districts. But zoning is one of three permissions, and the well permit usually bites.
What clients say
We worked with Belinda twice within two years, once on a $535k purchase of an acreage and once on a $700k sale of an acreage. Belinda was a consistent professional who was extremely knowledgeable about rural properties and the unique details that accompany them. Both transactions were fluid, without surprise, and closed on time.
Bought and sold acreage · 4/5 Our move was a major transition out of our long time home in Lakewood to the Eastern plains in rural Bennett; a 10 acre lot, with septic, barn, well and ranch setup. We knew very little about that. She helped us every step of the way and it has been the best move of our lives.
Bought 10 acres, Bennett · 5/5 We were selling a unique property and needed to somewhat drag the market to us. Belinda took the ball and ran with it, giving us useful and ultimately valuable advice. She was always available and put in many miles on our behalf.
Sold a unique property, Bennett · 5/5 Belinda was so helpful with great resources to help navigate through the buying process. She helped and directed us when there were issues in the contract.
Bought vacant land, Calhan · 5/5 She is a realtor that is always advocating for her client. My situation got very complex and Belinda never lost faith. She offered many great suggestions, outside the box thinking, and made sure that owning our dream home became a reality.
Bought a home, Elbert County · 5/5 Recently widowed, I appealed to Belinda to help me navigate Colorado’s turbulent seller’s housing market. She helped me sell my house of 34 years in short order. I could not be more pleased with her knowledge, professionalism, and ability to negotiate.
Sold a family home, Monument · 5/5 She really stepped in and helped my wife and I when my in-laws both passed. The first realtor that we talked to had zero interest and just wanted to offload the house to investors well under market value. Belinda was super positive and knew exactly what sort of work was needed to maximize the value of the house.
Sold an inherited home, Parker · 5/5 After interviewing a number of other agents, we settled on Belinda, and that was the best and right decision to make. She has superior knowledge of the area, the type of property we were selling, and the market conditions.
Chose Belinda after interviewing several agents · 5/5 She is extremely accurate in her pricing, marketing and market knowledge. She is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with, and I have been working in this industry for over 25 years.
Multiple transactions over many years · 5/5 I had a horrible after the sale experience from the seller who tried to pull a fast one, and she stood by me to remedy the situation quickly before it would have gone into litigation.
Bought a home, Severance · 5/5 We had a lot to do in leaving our small 11 acre ranch, yet Belinda’s business process exceeded our expectations. When you don’t know what you don’t know, it is best to consult with a professional that knows.
Sold an 11 acre ranch, Franktown · 5/5 She worked with me through each stage of the process: preparing the house for showings, evaluating multiple offers and working to acceptance of an offer, and getting to and through closing.
Sold a home, Heritage Eagle Bend · 4/5
