Hey Steve, are you still there?
Dec 23rd, 2008 by Steve Scheer
So, its been a little while since I have posted here on my Denver real estate blog. Truth be told, its just been busy.
Yes, the Denver housing market is slow - due to everything occurring around us and add to it the time of year. But I have been working with several buyers, all from out of state, and I have also been busy working on other areas of my business. I actual have several posts that I have written, but all in draft form and need some polishing, facts, etc.
I spent the day this week with a couple that will be relocating to Denver in 2009 from the east coast. A funny thing happened that has happened before. It brought me back to the realization of why I started posting here in the first place. It helps my future clients meet & know me & the community that they are about to buy a home in. Or perhaps they need to sell, and they need to find out more about who they are trusting their most likely largest investment with – especially now.
This couple I spent the day with knew me. They trusted me and they had a sense of who I am and how I do business. They recognized some of the places I took them by from the photos I have posted both here and on Flickr. They were already familiar with many areas in the south Denver suburbs and had a good feel for what they wanted and where they wanted to be. As I pointed out various landmarks, they were familiar with them from my blog posts. All in all, their vocalizing their appreciation of my blog could not have come at a better time.
So, look forward to more posts on Denver, the Denver suburbs and real estate in general, more often.

[...] But as I mentioned recently, I am finding more & more that its the photos that people that are relocating to Denver are really appreciating. I keep hearing how hard it is to get a real sense of what an are is like, people seem to love how many photos I have posted. You can also view many photos I have taken on my Denver Real Estate Flickr page. [...]
Hey Steve –
We just so happened to go back on-line to catch up on your blog and read about the couple from the East Coast….are you referring to your friends from Richmond, VA? If so, you couldn’t me more right! Your blog/site is a godsend for those of us looking to relocate to the Denver area and really does help build a comfort level/trust in you and your expertise long before we actually meet. We loved our time with you in December and cannot wait to get out there. Know anyone who wants to by a 1960s brick ranch in Virginia? Looking forward to seeing you soon!
