HELPING BUYERS
VIP Buyer Program
We have one commitment when working with you and that is to exceed your expectations while getting you the best possible price, terms and conditions when you buy a home. To do this, we’ve created our VIP Buyer Program to ensure that you get the most house for the least amount of money. By enrolling in the VIP Buyer Program, you will receive the three advantages listed below and a variety of proprietary consumer programs and services.

Colorado Team
Finding a home
When the time comes to buy, we are the team you want on your side
Home Search
Our website is updated with the MLS every 15 minutes so you receive immediate notification of new listings.
Schedule A Showing
Our team is standing by from 8:00am to 8:00pm everyday to show you a home. Simply send us the address and the best time for you to see it We will confirm that time works for the seller and meet you at the house.
Showings
Most showings take 15 - 20 minutes. The average buyer looks at 11 homes before making a decision.
Feedback
After a showing, we will send the seller feedback on the property. If you have anything you would like to share, let us know!
Making An Offer
Capture The Dream. Make It Real
Once you find a property that you like, we will provide you with a market value report to determine how much the property is worth. We will also talk to the seller to find out why they are moving and how we can position your offer to get you the best deal.
The offer will be created then sent to you for signatures on your computer, tablet, or phone. The offer is then submitted to the seller with a personal call from us and your lender so that we can present you as the best buyer for the property. Most sellers response to offers within 24 hours.
Contract To Close
Earnest Money
Once your offer is accepted, we will deposit the earnest money With the Title Company. This deposit shows the seller you are serious about buying their home. If you cancel during the inspection period, or if the appraisal comes in low and we cannot reach an agreement on price, you can get the earnest money back. It is typically 1%-2% of the purchase price and it comes back to your at the closing as part of your closing costs or down payment.
Home Inspection
You have the option to hire a home inspector to review the property and tell you what is in proper working condition, and what needs to be repaired. You can ask the seller to make repairs before the end of the inspection period, which is typically 5-10 days. The seller then has around 5 days to respond to your requests and tell you which repairs they are willing to make. If you agree then we will move forward. If you do not agree then you can cancel.
Appraisal
The appraisal determines market value of the property and it is ordered by your lender. If the appraisal comes in at the purchase or above the purchase price you do not have to pay more. If the appraisal comes in below the purchase price we will have to reach an agreement with the seller for a new purchase price or change the financing terms.
Closing
We will schedule closing at a time this convenient for you. Signing takes around 1 hour, and in most cases you will take possession of the property at closing.
VIP Buyer Program
Program Advantages
Love it or Leave it Guarantee
When you work with us, if you don’t love the home you buy, you can leave it for free. This is how it works. During the first 12 months after your closing, if you are dissatisfied with your new home purchase for any reason at all, you simply let us know and you get our incredible home selling system at no charge to you. We will list your home until it sells at your price for up to 12 months after the initial listing date with us. During this period, any commissions paid on the sale of the home will be paid directly to the agent that brings the buyer for your home, not to us.
Free Home Warranty
We understand the importance of having the protection of a Home Warranty when you buy a home. When you purchase a home through us, if we are unable to get the seller to provide you with a one-year Home Warranty, then we pick up the cost of providing you one.
Free Appraisal
When you work with one of our preferred lenders, they will cover the cost of an appraisal on your home. Depending on the size of the home, this will often save you $500+. Our lenders have a combined 40+ years of experience that they will utilize to custom tailor a loan to your needs and budget. Lender must be advised of VIP Program at time of application to qualify.
24/7 Home Hunting System
You will have 24/7 access to our home hunting system, where you’ll have access to thousands of homes listed across the county. Our system provides you with loads of information, including school ratings and a mortgage payment calculator. It is updated every 15 minutes to ensure you have the most accurate and timely information available for your hunt. You’ll have the ability to ask us questions, schedule showings, and even start an offer within the system.
Early Access Program
In an effort to make sure that you have an advantage over other buyers, we want to make sure you have access to properties that are on and off the market as soon as possible. When hot homes hit the market, they often have multiple offers within a few days. One of the advantages of working with our team is that we will get you access to homes before they hit the market so you can access them before the competition. Here are the ways that we search to accomplish this:
- Expired Listings - These are properties which were previously on the market, but the listing agent was unable to get the property sold, and they are now off the market.
- Cancelled Listings - These are properties which were previously on the market, but the seller decided to take them off the market for one reason or another.
- For Sale by Owner - These are properties that are for sale, but the seller has not hired an agent.
- Specific Neighborhood - If you are interested in a specific neighborhood and we have exhausted all the options listed above, our team will also door knock, call, text, email, and/or send direct mail to homeowners in the area.
Strategic Negotiation Experience
Our team sells over 100 homes per year. We have successfully negotiated over 1,000 transactions in Colorado. We will use this experience to work to get you the best price, terms and conditions on your home purchase. In some cases, we can even get the seller to pay some of your closing costs when you buy your home.
Cancellation Guarantee
A Cancellation Guarantee backs all of these services. If you are not completely satisfied with the job we’re doing for you, you can cancel your agreement with no additional charges from us.
