She guided me through every step, offering expert advice and connecting me with all the right people--from lenders to inspectors. We toured several properties, and when my favorite home went off the market, I was disappointed. But Jill remembered how much I loved it and went above and beyond by reaching out to the selling agent to see if it was still available. It was--and thanks to her initiative and persistence, she arranged a private showing, and I was able to make it mine! Jill negotiated a price that I could afford, and she was truly my biggest supporter and cheerleader throughout the entire journey. I'm so grateful she remembered the home that checked all my boxes and made my dream home a reality. I'm now happily settled in my new home, and I owe it all to Jill. She made the home-buying experience not only easy but genuinely enjoyable--I can't recommend her highly enough! Thanks Jill, You made my dream of home ownership a reality, and I am so greatful!

Jill is, hands down, the best realtor I've ever had the privilege of working with. She helped me to…read moresuccessfully sell my Boulder condo in a very difficult market. Before finding her, I worked with another agent who was unable to sell the property for many months. Despite this, Jill was optimistic and quickly turned things around. She connected me with an excellent stager, personally went above and beyond to showcase how great the space could look, and even personally attended many showings. I am not sure what I would have done if I hadn't found Jill. She is a lifesaver, and I recommend her to everyone selling any type of home.

At no point did we feel pushed or rushed--she provided clear information, answered our questions, and trusted us to take the time we needed to decide what was right for us. She was also accommodating with showings, often making herself available at awkward or last-minute times so we could see homes when opportunities came up. In a competitive market, that flexibility made a big difference. She guided us through the entire buying process keeping everything organized and moving forward while making sure we understood what was happening at each step.

From our initial discussion where she really took the time to understand what we were looking for, to the excellent communication throughout the buying process, to the kindness upon closing-it was an entirely different and impressive experience. Daphne is extremely well-versed in every aspect of the Boulder real estate market and her wealth of knowledge was invaluable to us in buying our home. She was not only able to advise us on neighborhoods, history of the area, value, bidding, etc, she knew so much about what to look for that may be of concern inside the houses. In addition, she gave us the most wonderful recommendations of others to work with, from our local lender, to inspector to sewer guy-all did an exceptional job. We couldn't be happier with our experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a real expert who is also a pleasure to work with.

We were so pleased with her attitude and dedication. We are first time buyers and were guided the whole way through this hefty process with such care, professionalism and a good sense of humor. On top of that ,we just moved from New York City to Boulder and had little knowledge about the housing in Colorado. Daphne was sure to keep us informed. Daphne is very knowledgeable within Boulder County (We bought our house in Erie, CO. I am not sure if she is specialized in other counties in Colorado as well). She knows the home values for all neighborhoods. She told us where to find information about school districts, shopping and things to do online. She listened to what we want from our first home. The first time she took us to look at some real estates, she showed us different type of homes that we can afford in--different areas. We thought that was a brilliant strategy because it provided us a way to see variety of homes in various areas. She made the process seem like a piece of cake. She kept us informed, educated us on the process, and continues to follow up with us. She is extremely responsive to all our inquiries whether they are through emailing or text messaging. Once we made our decision, Daphne is quick to make sure we get it! She made things happen! Daphne was honest, real and selective. She would steer us away from properties she didn't think were up to snuff and would point out flaws we didn't even see. Kudos! If you want to be part of a winning team, you can with Daphne.

When a property came up in which we were interested, if we were out of town, Greg would walk us through via facetime. Often our communication would take place after hours. We learned about the market and nuances of offers and counteroffers. The inventory was limited so our search took a number of months but Greg was there for us as a resource the whole time.

A few weeks ago I was suddenly without a place to stay as a fire ripped through my apartment while…read moreI was out of town, resulting in my partner spending several days in the ICU and our dog went missing in the chaos (later found thankfully). After spending a couple days sleeping in the hospital, the manager of our leasing office (Jen at Timber Ridge-also amazing) asked if we had another place to stay in the meantime and we didn't. She reached out to Ella at Housing Helpers and thankfully there was a fully furnished unit available immediately. Ella reached out to me basically instantly, offered to give me a tour, and sent over a thorough explanation of what was included in the rental cost (which frankly is a VERY good deal in Boulder). While I was working on submitting the lease/documentation/etc., they sent someone over to make sure the unit was completely ready for someone in our situation (cleaned, stocked with linens, towels, kitchenware - everything you need for a place). This was all happening at 4pm on a Friday. It took me a bit of time to get everything in and just because of timing stuff on my end, I couldn't get my payment in before their office closed. I thought I'd have to find a hotel for the weekend until I could get into the unit on Monday, but I checked my email and Ella had preemptively sent me instructions on getting access to the unit. Ella understood our circumstance and met our most desperate and heartbroken moment with generosity. We literally sobbed we couldn't believe it. For the cost, the value of the unit and what's included would alone be worth 5 stars, especially in Boulder and so close to campus. Ella embodies going above and beyond as a professional (you've never had an email responded to faster), but more importantly she and the rest of HHelpers recognize that they're working with real people - some in their most vulnerable moments - and I don't remember the last time I experienced that. Housing Helpers will be the first on the list of my housing recommendations going forward. I really can't stress enough just how down and out we were when this all happened but Ella immediately shifted our perspective and we felt like things were going to be okay after all - and they have been. Thank you Ella, thank you Housing Helpers. We needed a hand, and we're so glad it was yours that reached out to steady us.
