  My husband Mike & I walked into Ted’s office on a whim, and we’re glad we did. We were moving toward semi-retirement and considering downsizing, but timing and strategy remained open questions. With his knowledge of east county market trends, Ted guided us toward a decision to list our too-big house at what turned out to be just the right time. Always just an e-mail, text, or phone-call away, Ted kept us on course throughout the selling process. We listed in mid-March and closed in early June—a short time in the real-estate world, but a near eternity to anxious sellers. Meanwhile, Ted also helped us find the perfect smaller home in Old Town Lafayette, providing insight and support every step of the way. Ted is trustworthy, knowledgeable, hands on, and a terrific advocate and friend. Every real estate transaction has a few nervous-making bumps in the road, and we’re grateful that we had the chance to work with someone so meticulous and professional. Ted is the best!

  I met Ted three years prior to buying a home through him - his friendly demeanor and local knowledge at this one-time meeting stuck with me until I was ready to pursue property ownership. As a first-time buyer I had lots of questions and he answered them all, respecting my novice experience and investing in helping me pick a good home. Every house we visited, he knew about the neighborhood, it's history, the school district, what the current market was, what the market was last year, the style of construction, the costs of this repair and that renovation, and easily spoke with my wife and I about his honest thoughts. He gave us a great mix of professional service and casual interactions - meaning conversation with him was easy, communication via email/text/phone was quick, and he showed that he knew the rules of the real estate game. And he definitely didn't shy from steering us away from lemons - he wasn't in a hurry for us to buy something, which was nice. Ted felt like a mentor rather than a hired man and once we found the one we wanted, he went above-and-beyond our expectations in retrieving information about the previous owners, working with the sellers' agent, scheduling inspections and showings, and generally putting our minds at ease during a stressful process. Highly recommended.

  If you want a partner (not a mere realtor) who really will go the extra mile you've come to the right place. Ted encouraged us to list for far more than we had hoped we could get and ultimately we set a new standard for price in the neighborhood (much to the delight of our neighbors.) The photos he took of our property are magazine worthy and the staging was immaculate (moved to LA so we needed the help!). Most realtors can't even come close to comparing to this level of service. Ted has even helped give little tips to look out for on other purchases, so that we make sure that we're doing all the due diligence we can. If I could clone this man, I would. Realtors looking to be amazing have a great model in Ted and some very stiff competition. Don't use anyone else in Boulder County unless you absolutely have to.
