The Real Deal Homes

Rick and Dolores have worked together in real estate since 2005. Rick, as a full time appraiser since 2001 in the Denver market area, and Dolores as an assistant. With that background, we see the market from a value point of view. We are accustomed to dealing in "cold hard" facts. And because of that insight, we have a deep understanding of exactly how the market works - for example, why do some homes sell faster than others? There are differences in everything - especially real estate. Our case files prove it.

Over time we realized that we really lived real estate, literally. Not only were we working in it seven days a week, but we developed a passion for it. When we started taking our appraisal work to the next level - saying, "what would we do differently in marketing this home - how could we improve on this - should it be priced higher than it is," then we knew we had the skills and experience to do much more than we were doing. This was the beginning of something big.

In 2007, we decided to join forces - her passion and his technical insight. In the driving force to form an identity, Rick was adamant on focusing on what he does best - his appraisal skills. Dolores brings marketing excitement and flair to the mix. Together, we knew we had the power to elevate real estate to a new level. It is one thing to say you have mastery of a craft - it is a far different thing to prove it. We refine every step of buying or selling real estate to an art. We have the plan and the expertise to carry it through. This is the real deal.

However - this website is only a brief overview of what we do. The next step is to understand real life examples with our package we call "The A B C's of real estate". Business (not just real estate) is a lot like groceries. Everything you buy in the grocery store comes in a very appealing, colorful wrapper. When you peel away the wrapper and put things to a taste test, the differences come alive. No hiding behind a wrapper anymore. Rick says, "the market is so full of twists and turns, that a typical person really has no way of knowing what is real, and what isn't. Not only is it easy to be misdirected, it is in fact, highly likely. You need a pro to be your guide in the maze of real estate. I'm so glad I learned this business the hard way, as a seasoned appraiser, for many years - because I understand the market from the inside out."
