Review for Chelsea Steen by Fiona W
I’m not sure where to even begin on describing how incredible Chelsea is at what she does. I’m a first-time buyer, and came into the market with very little knowledge on what I was doing or what I even wanted. Chelsea walked me through every step of the process, taking time to answer my “million-texts-a-day” questions and fighting for timeslots to see every crazy listing that I wanted to scope out. With an extensive background in construction, she was very knowledgeable and helpful in pointing out the potential fixes that would be required in each house, how much work/money would actually be required to make those fixes, and every general concern she had for a particular listing. She treated every house showing as if she were looking at the home for herself, meaning she was brutally honest and kept the standards very high, never letting me settle for anything less than what I really wanted and needed.
On top of being the best-of-the-best with regards to the house listings themselves, she also was an incredible friend and confidante throughout the very emotional process. With hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line in each offer, she was adamant about making sure each offer was the right decision and was a great comfort when rejections came (to be clear, the rejected offers were not at all a reflection on Chelsea — I was in the most competetive price range for a home in CO, so rejection was inevitable).
At one point, I had the unique experience of having my offer get accepted only to be followed by a horrible inspection report. Chelsea was my rock and was able to have the difficult conversation with me that backing out of the contract was the best option. It was absolutely the right choice to terminate the contract due to safety hazards in the house, but was a very difficult and emotional decision to make. Chelsea was very professional and always had my best interest in mind, and in retrospect I’m so thankful I don’t own that particular home.
If you are looking to buy or sell property in Colorado, Chelsea is absolutely the person to work with.
