Fixes That "git 'r sold!"
Arvada resident Doyle Bunch had a constant reminder of the weak housing market when he considered putting his home up for sale last summer.
"The house across the street was on the market for four months, and it has the exact same floor plan (as mine)," the 55-year-old Bunch said. So Bunch spent the summer and part of the fall remodeling his home, per his real estate agent's instructions.
The work paid off. He sold the house in less than a month late last year. He didn't have to spend a mint to make it happen. In fact, most of the changes were modest in scale and scope. Real estate experts say getting the biggest return on investment - or "ROI" - in today's market doesn't require emptying one's wallet. It's about being smart, about knowing what your home really needs and how it measures up to its neighbors. read more . . .

New thirty year loans went for an average 4.89 percent, while fifteen year loans were just above 4.6 percent.

My family just bought our first home!! If it was not for Krista and her heart and knowledge for real estate, I don't think I would have made it through this process with my hair all in tact!
Krista is AMAZING!
She always kept us informed about what to expect and helped to keep our stress levels down.
After all has been said and done I now live in my beautiful home & feel as though I not only found an outstanding Realtor but a true friend as well.
Thanks Krista for everything!!!
