Looking Back on 20 Years as a RealtorBy Dena Stevens, Realtor® | Rocky Mountain RealtyDear Friends and Clients,As I celebrate my 20th year as a licensed real estate agent and begin my 21st, I find myself reflecting on how much has changed—not just in real estate, but in life. When I started this journey in May 2004, the world was a different place: TV shows like House and Lost were brand new Dancing With the Stars hadn’t aired yet Interest rates were about 5.8% The average home price in Southern Colorado was around $236,000 20 Years of Real Estate Experience: HighlightsHere are just some of the things I’ve had the pleasure (and sometimes the challenge!) of doing as a Realtor over the past two decades:🏡 Homes and Properties Sold homes ranging from 400 square feet to over 6,000 square fee...

  Tollgate Crossing is a beautiful neighborhood of homes that was started by DR Horton that is conveniently located 30 minutes outside of Downtown Denver and is an easy commute to DIA.   You will also now find Oakwood Homes & Antero Homes building in Tollgate Crossing.   There are now some townhomes in the neighborhood, also.  With many pocket parks throughout the neighborhood, it's not uncommon to see neighborhood families with kids playing and enjoying the Colorado weather.  Living in Tollgate Crossing, you have retail outlets at Southlands Mall, and retail and hospitals close by, but don't have the traffic you would expect in Denver.   Homes in this neighborhood were built from 2004 to 2019.   This neighborhood is located in the Cherry Creek School District.    You will find this nei...

Many cities across the Country are still experiencing a good market.   Denver has lagged in that category.   We have seen a 25% increase in listings, but no increase in pending sales.    We are not in a buyer's market, but feels more balanced.This listing has been owned by my Seller for 45 years, and he has done some upgrades over the years, but there were still some most buyers really wanted.   There were quite a few showings, and some said that was their favorite, but I never heard from them again.Saturday, there was a 9 am showing, and at 10 am, the buyer's agent called and said her "kids" (her son and daughter-in-law) loved the home, and they would be sending an offer.    YIPPY!After a lot of issues with the contract system, we finally got the offer, and by 10 pm Saturday night they...

 Happy Easter to all my ActiveRain friends!      Sure SEEMS like Spring is around the corner, as this coming week should be warmer.   It could be snowing still....   Even the wind has calmed down!  The annual Easter Service at Red Rocks was held, and always a crowd pleaser.   This service is usually packed, especially in good weather, but was a bit chilly this morning!  For children, Easter is a day of Easter eggs, maybe a new outfit and shoes, but it is also a day of celebration and family reunions.   There are a few egg hunts scheduled.    Hope you are able to spend some quality time with family and/or friends today, be safe.  HAPPY    EASTER

We are lucky to have every major sport with a team in Denver.   Over the years, we have been to the playoffs and even won a few times!Again this year, we have the Avalanche (hockey) and the Nuggets (basketball) in the playoffs.   The fun thing is -- they both use Ball Arena in Denver for the games in town.    That keeps the maintenance crews very busy changing the stage from ice to hardwood floors for both teams.Both teams will play on Saturday.   The Avs will play the Dallas Stars in Dallas at 6:30 pm, and the Nuggets play at home at 1:30 pm.    It will be a cold and maybe snowy day here in Denver, so watching some sports sounds like a fun day!
