As an agent who's an expert about Golden and surrounding areas, with 20+ years experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. With all the market changes the last few years, you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information and willingness to think outside the box. I am hard working and eager to serve you. Here are some of the things I can do for you:

Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including non-MLS properties which may be the best deal for you. I listen carefully and try to zero in on the best possible value and a perfect fit to your personal criteria. I then look in and outside the MLS to find the best fit and the best deal.

Sell a Home
When it's time to sell you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. Each of those steps may require re-negotiation to protect your interest. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close so that you end up with the maximum net proceeds check as soon as possible.

Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast. I also have an extensive internet marketing infrastructure to expose your property, in it's best light, to a large number of buyers. My goal is to create a frenzy about your home so that we can create a bidding war and negotiate the best possible contract for your property. I then work to bring that contract to closing on schedule even when issues come up in between. Having me on your team is the best way to protect you from todays demanding buyers and make the transaction a win for you too!

From a previous buyer client-

To Whom It May Concern:Few things in life glow with lasting satisfaction like good relationships.  At the same time few things bring a cascade of stress points like a geographical move.  John Hermanussen is a man who unselfishly gave to my family through a relationship that mitigated many stress points in our recent move to Evergreen, Colorado.  John was our realtor and much more. 

My family and I have crisscrossed these United States with 12 moves in 28 years.  In June of 2005 we moved from Lafayette, Louisiana to Evergreen, Colorado.  The extremes in culture and climate were anticipated, but not the housing market.  Somewhat seasoned in the moving process, I went to the internet and began searching for a realtor.  Many hours were spent reading biographies and calling realtors for phone interviews. 

Those hours have reaped benefits for us many, many times.  As a professional, John provided a broad array of help.  His technical competence was shown in sound understanding of building practices, community codes and area environmental issues.  As to efficiency and work ethic, he used every available communication or research tool to give us amazing response time.  More than once I received emails time-dated past midnight after he had spent most of his day with us viewing prospective homes.  

Beyond all this and more importantly, never have my wife and I enjoyed a realtor that genuinely cared for us like John.  He asked thoughtful questions and then listened carefully to really learn more about us.  Then he quietly and wisely observed us as we toured homes and different areas.  In a relatively short time he knew the type home and area that would make us truly happy.  And happy we are so much so we hope we never move again.  Everything about our home and its location suits us perfectly. 

Lastly, John didn´t disappear with the signing of the contract or even the closing.  He worked hard through the closing process ensuring everything was correct and continued to stay very involved as we moved in.  If we needed anything our first call was to John and he always met the need or connected us with the right people who could. 

What more could a person ask for?  John Hermanussen ?
