Buying a Home Requires Many Difficult Decisions. Make Sure Your REALTORŪ is a Top Local Expert.
When you hire me to represent you as your real estate consultant to buy your next home, here's what I do for you:
(1) I am your Consultant. When we meet I will ask you profound, insightful questions because discovering what is really important to you, is really important to me;
(2) I am your Negotiator. I am like a pit bull! :) I am skilled, experienced and focused. You, like me, probably believe it's in your best interest to have a skilled, experienced and focused negotiator on your team.
(3) I am yourTransactional Overseer - that means I oversee details. I dot the "i's" and cross the "t's". How does it make you feel knowing that there are 43 different people from 14 different industries that get involved during the seven stages of your transaction? Every transaction has 100 pieces of paper requiring upward to 43 signatures and initials. Making a mistake could be very costly to you.
One of my greatest skills is to see things from multiple perspectives, which means I will always recognize what is known about an issue, what more needs to be known, and how to best obtain the relevant and accurate information needed.
This is what I do. Every day I make dreams come true for buyers and sellers. I'm a real estate consultant and I look forward to helping you make your dreams come true. 
Your home is probably the biggest purchase your family will ever make, and it involves many decisions that go beyond simply choosing one you like. As top metropolitan Denver area REALTORSŪ, here is how we will guide you through the entire process, from viewing homes and financing, to making sure the final contract is in your best interest:
- You will have full access to ALL homes available in the metropolitan Denver area including the Golden, Lakewood and Littleton markets, even listings not yet on the MLS, through our professional Colorado real estate affiliations.
- Our expert local knowledge of the area should be invaluable to you, not just in terms of real estate, but also schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more.
- Every local real estate market absolutely has its own trends and opportunities. This can vary greatly, even one neighborhood to the next. It's our job to steer you into opportunities and out of traps.
- What is the true market value of the home you are interested in? Is it priced too high? Is it a bargain that you should jump on? We help home buyers make decisions like this every day, and we'll make sure that YOU get the best value for your money.
- Negotiating with sellers can be stressful. We will help you negotiate, so that the final contract includes your best possible terms and conditions.
- You should know absolutely everything possible about the property you are buying! You and we will view every home that you are interested in, together. And prior to closing we will make you fully aware of any and all inspections available to you.
- Have confidence when signing documents. Contracts are full of complicated terms and clauses that can greatly affect your future life in your new home. We will give you the full benefit of our real estate knowledge and experience.
When you choose us to represent you in your home search, we treat your money like it is ours. You, like me, know that money is an emotional issue and to represent your own self is like performing surgery on yourself. You would never do that, would you? You will have a skilled, experienced and focused negotiator on your team when you buy a home through the Joan Shaffer Group in the Denver Metropolitan Area, including Golden, Lakewood and Littleton.

Pricing >Competitive Pricing
You have seen it all over the years--interest rates rise and fall, sales prices escalate and decline. No matter what phase the market is in, it is always important to price your home in your area competitively. How can you price your home with confidence?
The first step is to contact a professional real estate agent for a comparative market analysis. The agent will look at recent sales of comparable homes in your area and give you information about other properties that are currently on the market. By comparing the size, location and condition of your home to the competition, your agent can help you determine how much to ask for your home. Even in an active market, an inflated price may frighten prospective buyers away. A house that is over-priced can take additional weeks or months to sell, and the final sale price may even be lower than if the sellers had started out more realistically. The price is based on market conditions, comparable sales, and your agents years of experience in the marketplace.
