There’s a strategic science and an emotional art to selling a house.
And the process for listing a property at the right price—that’s savvily marketed and accurately positioned to get eyes and offers—involves paying attention to the big-picture elements, like crafting a competitive pricing strategy, and the smallest details, like making sure trim is sealed and painted.
As your real estate agent, it’s my job to handle all of that so you can kick your feet up and get giddy as the interest builds.
Here’s the science behind selling a house:
POLISHED PRESENTATION
I’ll be paying attention to details like turning on the AC for showings, so potential buyers aren’t sweating their butts off, to making sure your listing description includes the information people are most eager to know (and doesn’t solely rely on cliched expressions like “heart of the home” when describing the kitchen).

But there’s another side to selling a home that not everyone talks about—and that’s the emotional part:
From my decade of experience as a real estate agent in Colorado, I’m confident in saying that this process is an emotional one, too.
It’s all about emotions when it comes to helping a potential buyer connect with a property by painting a picture of what their life could look like in your home.
It’s emotional for you, as a seller, to hear a number put to a space you’ve spent years living in and caring for.
And it’s emotional when either side feels like they’re getting screwed over or pushed into making a decision they aren’t happy with.
I’m here for the emotional parts too; to be your go-between person in negotiations, a voice of reason when emotions are running high, and a knowledgeable expert who knows how to have your back in all of the ways you might need it.
If that’s what you’re looking for…
The two properties we sold went for well over asking.

Sophie was our real estate agent for a fairly complex process involving the sale of two homes and the purchase of another one. She is a consummate professional and an extremely hard worker, in addition to being just an all-around fun and super person.
Highly recommend.”

Sophie was the best realtor I'd ever worked with when she helped me sell my house.

It was a tricky and stressful situation, as I was moving out of state and had some time restraints, but she made it happen with incredible attention to detail and a great amount of patient for me and my circumstances. I highly recommend her!

Ready to list and sell with an agent who puts the “real” in real estate?
(AND WHO IS PATIENT AND KIND, TOO.)
Awesome.
