Your property in Steamboat Springs is likely one of your most valuable assets. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to list and sell it for you.
To sell your property for the best possible price in the shortest amount of time, you should have an understanding of how the Steamboat real estate market works. Please contact us to receive a detailed listing presentation. The following information provides an overview of the Colorado Group Realty listing process:
As in any competitive market, the most important factor is price.
You should list your property at the highest price the market will bear. We can help you determine that price by performing a thorough review of recent comparable sales as well as other active listings that will be your "competition".

Once a price has been established we need to market the property effectively. Reaching the right buyer is key, so what do we know about where the buyers come from?
- Over 55% of buyers in the market are working with a Realtor within the Steamboat Springs Board of Realtors.
- An additional 35% come from the reputation of our company and our brokers (recommendations from past clients, walk-ins, call-ins, email inquiries and referrals from our national and international affiliates).
- The remainder (approx. 10%) comes from yard signs and company print advertising.
We feel strongly that our efforts should focus on marketing towards the local Realtors, with an emphasis on the top producing brokers and all of our company's brokers. In addition, our Colorado Group advertising and two high-traffic office locations provide the maximum exposure for your property.

Colorado Group Realty results speak for themselves...
In 2004 we successfully closed over $158 million in real estate. We typically have a listing inventory of over $160 million, or over 200 sellers - individuals, families and developers, entrusting us to get the job done. And we fully intend to do just that.

The first and most important exposure your property will have is through the MLS. The information is entered into the MLS as soon as you sign the listing agreement unless you direct otherwise. Other brokers check the hot sheet daily for new properties. We pride ourselves in presenting accurate, detailed information with a well-written commentary and multiple quality photographs.
Each Tuesday morning new listings are presented to nearly 100 of the board's most active, top producing Realtors. Colorado Group Realty's in-house graphic artist creates professional brochures of the highest quality that stand out among the competition, and your Realtor will verbally present the important attributes of your property.

Every listing at Colorado Group will be available for viewing by the Realtors at either an MLS tour on Tuesday or Wednesday mornings following the Colorado Group sales meeting. Each tour is designed to give the property additional "hands on" exposure to those brokers working with potential buyers for your property.

Colorado Group Realty has some of the best realtors in the business. We are a market leader in all areas of real estate, and one of our key strengths is in understanding the motivations of the resort buyer. We have remarkable success in selling our listings within the company (see company statistics). The process starts at the company sales meeting, with brokers discussing new properties even before the seller has returned a signed listing agreement. Our company philosophy is based on teamwork and the results speak for themselves - it is not exceptionally uncommon for a property to be sold in-house before it has even been presented to the MLS!

We pride ourselves in offering convenience to all Realtors to show our listings. Our downtown office is open 7 days a week year-round in order to make sure that we don't miss any of those important calls to show your property. Our front desk is staffed with professional employees who receive thorough training and are involved in designing the best systems to make sure the showings process runs smoothly and efficiently.
Please contact us if you would like to receive a detailed listing presentation for your property.
