Joan Shaffer, Golden, Lakewood and Littleton REal Estate Agent.

Joan is the principal of The Joan Shaffer Group.

My guiding principles are hard work and honesty in all my dealings with customers and clients. I strive to be different from every other REALTOR® in the way I stay connected with my clients. I offer a large selection of Value-Added Services from which my clients can choose.

My mission is to make sure you get where you want to go on time, keeping you in the strongest negotiating position possible, reducing your risk, delivering on my promises, solving any problems that might arise and always being fair and honest!

My clients can count on me to be there when they need me, to listen closely to their needs and to provide strong guidance and support during the entire real estate process. I truly love this profession.    Nothing makes me happier than making a positive difference in the lives of all my clients!

The following designations are a result of many hours of classes and years of experience: CRS (Council of Residential Specialists - only 4% of all real estate practitioners have been awarded this designation!), ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative), GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute), ePRO (Internet Real Estate Professional). I've been a REALTOR® and a member of the National Association of REALTORS since 1977.   Special training in residential and commercial appraising and investment brokerage is also a part of my background.   

As a REALTOR I follow the "Code of Ethics" of the National Association of Realtors and participate in ethical standards classes for the practice of real estate.  Beware!  Not all sales agents are REALTORS® - there is a difference!

The Colorado Real Estate Commission has stringent requirements that real estate brokers must follow to remain in good standing including annual training about all the changes that continually are made to real estate law and practices. 

Our Experience, Credentials, Track Record, and Awards

Real estate has been my life for as long as I can remember.  Even growing up, I can still describe each and every home I lived in.  There were plenty of homes to remember!  Because my dad was in the construction business, during the first twelve years of my life we moved a lot, mostly back and forth between Colorado and Pennsylvania.  I spent most of my growing up years here in Denver and in Fort Collins, just 60 miles to the north.  I learned to love the mountains and our wonderful, but frequently unpredictable, Colorado climate.
 
About 35 years ago I decided to become a REALTOR® and that meant having to go back to school again.  I had earlier earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Education from the University of Colorado while raising three small children and holding down a part-time job.  I taught elementary school in Colorado Springs until my husband's work took us to Albuquerque, New Mexico.  That's where the "real estate bug" big me and I've been happily infected with it ever since!
 
Since 1977 I've sold hundreds and hundreds of homes to happy, satisfied buyers.  I've taken over 3500 hours of additional advanced training in all aspects of real estate, including commercial investment and residential and commercial appraising.  I've sold bulk land to builders for millions of dollars, vacant lots, single-family homes and condominiums both large and small.  I've managed new home construction and commercial retrofit projects.  For six years I was a land development company's principal broker, dealing with builders and buyers on a daily basis.  I've experienced planning, management and sales responsibilities for five condominium development projects in two states.  I've serviced on an environmental task force considering the impact of future development and I've spent many hours as a member of boards of directors of two homeowners' associations.

After 10 years of working in a corporate real estate environment, I chose to return to my first love - residential real estate.  All my experience has taught me that there's nothing I'd rather do than serve people as their real estate consultant and advisor!  This is my full-time job and I am truly blessed to have found success in a career that I love!
 
I love my family; my grandchildren with whom I love playing games and just "hanging out"; and our recently adopted, sweet little 6 year-old Yorkie-Poo.  All are close to my heart and act as a balance to my intense concentration on my business!

Other designations earned and educational and experience requirements I've completed include the GRI (Graduate REALTOR Institute), CRS (Certified Residential Specialist, a national designation awarded to only 4% of all REALTORS), ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative).  In addition I'm a member of NAR (National Association of REALTORS), CAR (Colorado Association of REALTORS) and JCAR (Jefferson County Association of REALTORS®).  Most recently I earned the respected ePRO Certification, awarded after an intense 60 hours of on-line training in using the Internet. 

We are commited to being "life-long" learners - the only path which can provide the continuing quality of service that the Joan Shaffer Group proudly guarantees to all of our clients!  You can count on us!

Real Estate Tips
First Time Buyers >The Perfect Home

When we help prospective buyers locate a new home we listen carefully to their goals. What are their criteria for selecting a neighborhood, what style of house do they prefer, what price range and floor plan meet their needs? Will any special considerations go into making the homebuying decision? When we have a good picture of what the buyer wants, we will go to work to find the best property on the market that will accommodate those needs.

Our real estate agents succeed when they can make the buyers' goals their goals. Finding the perfect home is a collaborative effort. The buyers communicate what they want, why they want it, and where compromise might be possible, and the agent listens carefully and selects the homes that come as close as possible to meeting the needs expressed. When there is trust and communication between the buyers and the real estate agent, miracles can happen! Creating these miracles for buyers and sellers is "Job #1" for us.
