Control Your Destiny With Custom Home Search
Jan 24th 12
It’s a proven fact that home buyers start their home search online. NAR or the National Association of Realtors conduct yearly surveys of home buyers to see where and how they are searching for homes.
Recently NAR’s research showed us that over 80% of home buyers use the internet to search for homes. In my almost 13 years of real estate I’ve never once worked with a home buyer that didn’t use the internet.
“Typically buyers roam the NET skipping from site to site looking at different properties. I guess that’s OK but wouldn’t it be nice to have total control of your searches and be able to save those searches so you don’t have to re-enter the same search criteria over and over again?”
Benefits of using our easy home search system:
- Saved Searches. Enter and save as many different searches as you like. Track homes in several different neighborhoods and price ranges.
- Email Alerts. Setup automatic emails so that you receive the latest listings in your “Saved Searches.” You will be emailed as soon as any new listings pop on the market or when there are price changes to listings. You can set these emails so they come daily or weekly or monthly. You decide.
- Detailed Search. With our MAP search you can actually trace a line around the areas you want to search or even down to a specific street and have the system update you any new listings within that small area.
- Never have to login again. With these “Saved Home Searches” you never have to wonder around the web looking for MLS access again. Save the link to the main Search Panel in your Bookmarks and use it each time you are ready to view homes.
- Sold Homes. If you would like regular emails about sold homes in your area so you can learn values or just see what your neighbor’s home “really” sold for just ask. We can set that up too. Steven Beam Parker, CO Realtor. 303-941-4663
Search Homes, Save Homes and Get Homes Emailed to You.
Here is an example of an email that you will receive with links to more detail info and maps of the property.

Foreclosure Deal in The Timbers Neighborhood
Nov 8th 11
Here is a super deal on a foreclosure in Parker Colorado.
This foreclosure is in The Timbers Neighborhood.
This is a custom home. Over 7,000 SQFT.
This is a hot foreclosure deal currently for sale in the Prestiegious Timbers neighborhood. I’ve personally seen the inside of this home and it is in excellent condition. The large open floor plan, half finished basement and positioning on a high lot make this a one shot deal at the current asking price. 
Click Here for a PDF file of this unique listing.
All new Parker, CO Foreclosures
The current asking price is $735,000 and this is a million dollar home in just about any market. The previous owner paid right at $1 Million in 2004.
The street this house is located on is a very desirable street in The Timbers. The lot as mentioned before is ideal. The lot is high and on a cul-de-sac with mountain views.
Another feature this home offers that is really extraordinary is the large front porch. There is plenty of room to setup two sitting areas to view kids playing in the cul-de-sac or just shill and look at the mountains.
This home will not sit on the market for long. It;s surrounded by million dollar homes and any smart buyer in this market will certainly snap up a huge bargain with this home.
One last note. The half of the basement that is unfinished has plenty of room for a full media room extra bedroom and a full workout room. The basement has what I believe to be at least 9 foot ceilings? I didn’t measure them but the basement is deep.
Call Realtor Steven Beam (303-941-4663) for a showing of this home today but don’t wait too long as I guarantee you it will be sold quickly.

Photos can make or break your listing
Nov 2nd 11
Photos of Parker CO Homes Showcased in the MLS
Professional Home Photos
We see it all the time. Amateur photos taken of homes that are listed in the MLS for sale. A good or bad photo can make or break your home sale. Being successful selling your home starts with a professional presentation.
Listing agents or brokers use these poor examples in their online marketing and offline print ads for the property. It’s a poor representation of the property and frankly something I would never have my name associated with.
I regularly see fliers in flyer boxes in front of the house stuffed full of fliers that have photos that are so bad I’m embarrassed for the seller.
Here’s an example of a poor lighting and not capturing the entire kitchen. The person that took these shots didn’t even take the time to turn the lights on in the kitchen. Not a very good presentation to the potential buyer and certainly not what a seller is expecting from their agent or broker selling the house.
Kitchen photo no lights on?
Here is another example where the listing broker didn’t take the time to turn the lights on inside the room where they are taking the photo.They only shot half of the room and really dropped the ball here.
No lights and half of the room?
When a seller hires Steven Beam to sell their home we do it right.
I have a professional photographer that has been working for me and shooting all of my listings for the past 11 years. He knows the best angles to shoot a room and how to get the best lighting to showcase the room. The photos we use are high resolution and can be used for both print and online advertisements.
The next time you get ready to list your home for sale make sure the broker you hire has a professional photographer that can get the job done.
Many times you have only a few seconds to attract a buyers eye online before they eliminate your property from the ones they want to view. Don’t you think that having your home presented professionally with top notch photos is a bare minimum?
Here are a few more examples of high resolution professionally shot photos of my listings. This is how it should be done.
Professional Photographer Home in Pradera
Another way I professionally market homes I list for sale in the MLS is by using professional videos with onscreen talent.
Here is an article about video and how it can be used.
Small but perfectly photographed room.
Small rooms like the one just above deserve as much attention as the larger main rooms. Buyers want to see what the home has to offer so you better make it visible and beautiful.
If you would like to see what your home is worth fill out this questionnaire and I will call you today.

Parker’s Newlin Meadows Neighborhood
Apr 13th 11
Newlin Meadows Neighborhood Sign
Looking to buy a home in Parker, Colorado? You better check out the Parker neighborhood of Newlin Meadows.
Newlin Meadows is located adjacent to the new Rueter-Hess Reservoir here in Parker. If you think that isn’t important you should reconsider.
When Rueter Hess is complete is will have miles of trails for walking and biking, plenty of picnic tables, fishing and other fun Douglas County Open Space activities.
Take a look at the neighborhoods in the DTC and Greenwood Village that back up to the Cherry Creek Reservoir. The neighborhoods next to Cherry Creek Reservoir in the DTC have certainly benefited from having all those recreation opportunities out their back door. I’ve had many clients over the past 12 years ask me to show them homes in the DTC and only homes with easy access to the reservoir. There is a definite premium for properties located close to the reservoir in the DTC and I believe eventually that same will happen here in Parker and homes near the Rueter-Hess reservoir.
Home in Mewlin Meadows
Newlin Meadows is located in a prime location for more than just the reservoir. Eventually Hess Road will connect up with I-25 and Mainstreet already connects. Newlin Meadows in directly in between both roads which will give homeowners in that neighborhood easy access to I-25 from two routes.
Home prices right now in Newlin Meadows are from the low t mid $300’s to well over $400,000. There has been one sale in the past 2 years over $500,000. It listed and sold in 1 day for $540,000.
What more can I say. I believe that Newlin Meadows, Horse Creek, Auburn Hills and Antelope Heights will all be ideal for home buyers in Parker.

Hot Real Estate Investment Deals In Parker Colorado

Hot Deals in Parker CO Real Estate
Do you want the “Hot Sheet” with this weeks really awesome investment properties for Parker Colorado? Click Here.
We are currently working on a new program that we will have available soon for real estate investors. We all know that the real estate investor is going to be the saving grace of this massive real estate downturn. Investors are going to buy the properties that regular home buyers will not.
Check back over the next few weeks and feel free to attend one of our workshops. It’s FREE and it will be full of informative information about investment opportunities, techniques and several different ways to make money in this market.
PLEASE Send Steve Email or call me 303-941-4663 if you are remotely interested in attending this event. We are hoping to have something scheduled for the next few weeks but would like to gauge attendance so we secure a large enough place.
Current topic ideas.
- Fix and Flips
- Rentals
- Fix and Flips or Rent.
- Typical fix ups and typical costs associated with fix ups.
- Who does the fix up? We will have a highly seasoned fix and flip contractor on site with before and after photos that will show you real numbers for real jobs.
- 203k Streamline Loans
- Buying in your IRA. Self directed IRA’s are great for buying real estate. How much are you making in you old IRA right now? What if you could draw income from rental properties for life. I have guys making $60,000 a year off rents.
- Any suggestions?
“I’ve had several of my Doctor clients tell me they are sick of losing cash in the stock market. Give me an investment I can make a steady return on and I will take it all day long. “
There is a massive shadow inventory of homes yet to hit the market that the banks are either sitting on or simply have not foreclosed on yet. So will you be a buyer/investor and take part in the easy pickings and make great investments for your financial future or will you be the guy or gal at the party in 10 years saying “boy I could have bought those cheap homes but I didn’t.”
Prices are depressed 8-20+% in some areas so with the foreclosures and short sales hot real estate investment deals are relatively easy to come by.
Vacancy rates across the Denver Metro area are at all time lows. Record lows! Rent prices are up! Interest rates are Low! Homes Prices are low! This is exactly what our parents and every talking head on the NEWS and financial shows all preach is the absolute best time to buy? Your darn right it is. Buy low sell high.
Homes and condos are renting at amazing rates. Homes that were renting for $1,500 to $1,600 a month are now renting easily for $2,000 a month. Condos that were renting for $750 are now renting at $1,000 a month.
Remember all the people losing their homes to foreclosure and short sale still need a place to live. The fact is many of them dread the idea of going back into an apartment. Many of them simply cannot since they now have 2-3 kids. They all need homes.
The unfortunate ones that have lost their homes to short sale or foreclosure are no longer able to buy a home since their credit has been trashed. Most cannot buy a home for at least 3 years. Many cannot buy homes for 5 years.
I have access to amazing contractors for trashed out homes. Access to lenders that know how to complete the loans that can get your up to $35,000 for fix up costs. Lets face it 90% of the so called trashed homes on the market really only need a little cosmetic work to get them back into shape. I rarely see investors spend more than $10,000 to fix up a home to get it ready to rent.
Fix and flips are another possibility. As mentioned above. You can get up to $35,000 to help with fix up costs. Some investors would rather use their own cash and have complete control which is also fine. It’s not difficult to turn a $15,000 profit from a fix and flip property in this market. Many investors are doing much better than that.
I encourage you to call me or send me an email if you are interested. We are going to put this together but we seriously need to se what the community interest level is for this type of presentation.
If you are not interested but know someone that might then email them the link to this article.
