made my offer the best one out there
and got me into a wonderful home. "
PRAISE from CLIENTS
I am so honored to have been trusted as the as the real estate agent for the sale and purchase of so many homes over the years. Buyer, seller, or investor, it has been my privilege to serve each and every client, and to face the excitement and challenges of each transaction together.
I am humbled to hear such praises regarding what it was like to work with me, and thankful to share with others the level of service they should expect. It’s important to me that my clients are beyond pleased with my service, having built my business on customer satisfaction and referrals. Some of these testimonials were sent to me in the form of a personal thank you or referral letter, and others were submitted and can be read on Zillow.
I moved to the Denver area and shortly thereafter connected with Jeff after receiving a very wonderful reference from a colleague. Throughout the entire home-buying process (my first, I should add) Jeff has not only been an outstanding realtor but also an exceptional counselor and guide. Not once has Jeff made me feel rushed, dismissed, or like a commission is more important than finding the right home. From the beginning he went out of his way to form a strong working relationship with me in order to better understand what I was looking for in a home. Having moved from out of the state, I had little knowledge of the greater Denver area, the local housing market, desirable locations, home styles etc. It was very clear from the beginning that Jeff really knows his stuff. When suggesting homes to view and tour it was clear that his sense of my interests was right on point. When viewing houses virtually or in person Jeff was very meticulous and detail oriented – he was able to confidently and competently speak with me about the various details of each home bringing up aspects of each property that I would never have thought about otherwise. His vast experience with home ownership, property management, and investment real estate is very apparent and his thoughtful explanations alleviated so much of the stress that is inherent to the home-buying process.
Jeff’s patience, knowledge, and intuition make him an excellent agent for those looking to find an investment properties or those looking to raise a family. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to work with Jeff and as I am writing this email from my new home, I wouldn’t have wanted to work with anyone else. I would without hesitation recommend him to anyone interested in buying or selling a home in the greater Denver area.
The decision was made…I was selling my house and was dreading every moment! Not just the packing, but trying to find an investor/realtor that would not only take care of their client’s needs but to do it with a high sense of morals. Amazingly enough, within a few weeks I received a flier in the mail from Jeff stating he was both an investor and realtor as well. So I thought, “Why not!” I was dead set on taking the easy way out and selling to an investor. While Jeff is an investor, he brought to my attention the amount of money I would be missing out on if I sold the property out right to him. He showed me the $$ amounts from both the investment side versus putting my home on the market side. He would’ve made more money purchasing, updating and selling the home himself but he chose to be honest with me about the money potential. Due to Jeff’s honesty, integrity and expertise he had gained my trust and changed my opinion of realtors.
My home sold within two days after listing. And for quite a bit more than what was asked, not to mention how much more I gained by taking Jeff’s advice and listing the property instead of selling to an investor. He is in the process of helping my daughter and son-in-law find their first home. I would recommend him to anyone!!!
- We couldn't have asked for a better home buying experience with Jeff. His knowledge, experience, and ability to educate helped us avoid so many pitfalls and set us up for success from the start. We are thrilled with the home we ended up selecting, and couldn't have been more pleased with Jeff leading us through the process.
colton3468Inventory was low and Jeff patiently walked the long road with us to find a great house!
When you find a good house you have to move quick and negotiate well and the professional way Jeff wrote the offer allowed us to win the contract in the midst of multiple cash offers!
A good friend and an excellent realtor!! tsead87My wife and I enjoyed working with Jeff very much to find our first home. He has a reassuring and detail-oriented personality, and he helped us to feel safe throughout the entire search process and transaction. He especially gave us confidence to forego placing offers on properties which we might have otherwise convinced ourselves to settle for. Sometimes, it even felt like Jeff’s memory surpassed our own in remembering our preferences! And rather than ever rushing us or persuading us in decisions, he shared with us the information we lacked so we could form our own opinions—as a good mentor would. He generously gave us a lot of his time on the phone when doing so. Overall, Jeff held a very selfless heart towards us, and we are extremely grateful for the ways in which he tangibly sought guarded our longterm well-being. hunter l. - We came to Jeff looking for an agent who had expertise with the local Longmont market. He did not disappoint. We had already purchased a house in a different market and were needing to procure a quick sale of our current home. After a thorough phone consultation to determine our needs and desires, he went to work analyzing the neighboring market to identify homes similar to ours in order to determine a fair listing price that would draw the most likely pool of potential buyers. This would prove crucial to the success of our listing. He met with us to advise us on what he felt was the optimum listing price, and then our attention turned to making our home ready for the market. To be honest, he told us some things we didn't want to hear and gave us some tough homework assignments, all with the end goal in mind of selling our home quickly for a fair market price. He took the additional step to bring in a professional stager at his expense to give us some pointers on how to make our home show ready. We got to work clearing out and cleaning up, and our hard work based on Jeff's expert suggestions paid off. Our house went on the market on a Wednesday, and we had a contract in hand on Saturday with an above-listing price. Jeff was instrumental in negotiating a good price for our home. He kept us apprised during the inspection and closing process and was quick to answer all of our questions along the way.
We are very glad we decided to work with Jeff. We got the results we needed. A quick sale for above-list price without any complications. We would highly recommend him for any real estate needs you might have. Charlie2411Buying a house with Jeff was an excellent experience. He was suggested by a friend and we would highly recommend him to anyone who would ask! He took the time to really get to know what my wife and I were looking for and spent the time needed to help us find it. He was a full time professional, part time therapist, and excellent tour guide to buying a home. He made sure to walk us through the important decisions and was excellent with offering opinions and suggestions as needed. Everything just seemed to go smoothly along the way; our viewings were scheduled with perfect timing so we were not rushed but everything was efficient; the offer and negotiation was basically painless; the actual march towards buying a house went well and Jeff was able to suggest some exceptionally competent inspectors. Our experience was very smooth and we attribute that largely to Jeff. bstill16I don't ever leave reviews unless they are warranted. There are a lot of average people in the world then there are the shining stars. Jeff and his team are shining stars! I have had many Realtors over the years and never understood the importance of their role in both buying and selling a home until I used Jeff. Jeff will be the only realtor I will ever use again. We had a very complicated contract to negotiate and he got it done! He coached us and had us prepared for every step along the way. His knowledge of the market and the real-estate contract law was incredible. He had the other realtors asking for advise on how to write there end of the contracts! He was able to get us everything we needed in-order to have a smooth closing and more! His collaborative negation style makes it easy for others to want to work with him. He went above and beyond my expectations and I believe the expectations of his industry. I couldn't be happier. I am contractor and many people ask me for recommendations on people to use for different projects they have going on. Jeff is now one of those where I won't hesitate to give them his name. Yes, I have a Realtor... jonnyduke6 - Jeff did an outstanding job in the selling of our home. He coached us in preparing our house for the sale making by pointing out items that needed to be updated or repaired. He also had fantastic ideas for staging the house. He provided us with information regarding the real estate market and looking out for our best interest. His negotiation skills were beyond our expectations thus resulting in a smooth closing. eunicehopmanJeff was and is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He had excellent advice on the things we should do to "pretty up" our home for sale. He was quick to respond to emails with answers and additional helpful information. He was always available to communicate via phone for some of the more difficult discussion items that we encountered. We really felt like he cared for our situation as people, not just as clients. Jeff has my highest confidence and gratitude. I will personally work with him in the future and will highly recommend his services to others. scottfischer59My fiancé and I worked with Jeff Bechtold and his wife, Eileen Bechtold on the sale of my fiance’s house and the purchase of our new home together. Jeff came as a recommendation from my fiance’s brother who had worked with Jeff years prior on the purchase of his first home. From the time we met with Jeff in early February until end of April, we had sold and purchased a new home through him.
I would highly recommend Jeff to any family/friends in the CO area who is looking to sell/purchase a home for these reasons below:
Sale of a home:
- Jeff coached my fiancé on how to stage his home. I personally liked how upfront he was on what items/furniture should go/should stay. For that reason, his home looked spacious and potential buyers could more clearly envision themselves/furnityure in the house.
- From the time we met with him, we had only about 3-4 weeks to get our house in ready to sale state. Jeff coached us on when was the best time to go on market, taking account into weather as well. I am a particular person and I really liked that he also is a particular person.
- We went under contract after 4 days being on the market, and received over 10 offers within that time period.
- He did a ton of research on the price point at which the home should be listed for based on market research/recent sales of comparable homes.
Purchase of a home:
- Before we started to look at houses, Jeff sat us down and went through a sample contract in detail, and explained to us what would make a strong offer. There is no lollygagging in this market- Jeff wanted us to be ready to submit an offer once we saw a house we liked.
- He even harped on scams for a while- how to obtain wiring instructions for down payment. I’m so glad he did as we had gotten contacted by scammers twice and we were able to spot them easily with Jeff’s advisement.
- We went to around 15 showings, and put in 2 offers. Both of our offers were very strong and came out in the forefront of the race with Jeff’s help.
- He establishes excellent rapport with the Listing Agents to see if there are any hot spots the sellers have so that our offer is strong
- Jeff conducts market research to make sure that we aren’t overpaying for a house and to ensure our appraisal comes back at the right amount. Jeff is a calculated risk taker. He wouldn’t let us willy nilly overpay for a house that he can’t back up with recent comps. Any agent out there could technically do that to sell a house. Not Jeff- he advised us on a price point he wouldn’t go over for both offers. For one of the offers, he actually came back and talked us down 10k when he couldn’t find comparable sales that would make him confident in our initial offer.
Given how crazy the housing market is today, it is extremely important to find an agent who is able to guide you on how to make an offer stand out without putting yourself much at risk. We loved how thorough Jeff is with everything he does. Every question that is asked, is given a more than thorough answer. I feel like anyone can obtain a real estate license and a lot of agents out there are just after a commission. I would say Jeff doesn’t do this as a job, real estate is his hobby/passion. Jeff is the cream of the crop of all real estate agents out there. We will be going back to Jeff for our future investment properties. zuser20181109093942546
