Offer, Negotiate & Close
My legal and mortgage background means your contract gets read closely — not skimmed.
A Broker Who Reads the Fine Print, Because She's Trained To
Most agents can open a lockbox. Fewer can tell you what a contingency clause actually protects you from, or spot a financing red flag before it costs you the deal. With a background in both law and mortgage, on top of 31+ years in Colorado real estate, I bring a level of scrutiny to your transaction that most buyers don't get.
And because I work solo — not as part of a rotating team — you're never handed off. From your first showing to the closing table, you're working directly with me.
Talk to JosieWhat Buyers Are Saying
"In our recent home search, Josie took ownership of our preferences, found several homes that were just right for us and worked diligently to resolve all issues once we made an offer. The terms of our purchase were somewhat complex, and we faced several changing conditions which Josie negotiated for us to our significant advantage. Long after our closing, she has remained engaged in helping us resolve a number of unforeseen, pop-up concerns. Josie is a solid professional who champions her client's interests, no matter how large or small. We can recommend her highly, without reservation."
"Josie and her team were fantastic! Josie was patient, knowledgeable, reliable and kind. We met every deadline that we had on our contract. She answered all of our questions even if we asked it multiple times. Towards the end of the transaction we had a very difficult experience with the buyers of our house that caused a tremendous amount of stress. Josie was there for us through every step. The only comfort we had during this time was that Josie and our lender were behind us with their professionalism and experience. Thank you Josie!!! We have our dream home and we couldn't have asked for a better Realtor."
"I am forever grateful for Josie!! She has helped me with three real estate transactions in my lifetime and each time makes them feel seamless even during hard times. She is super knowledgeable and truly cares about her clients. If you are needing a Realtor who listens to your every need for your new home or your sell of your home, you need to call her. The amazing experience and her expertise will forever change your life for the better!!"

Buyer FAQ
In many transactions, sellers offer concessions that cover buyer agent fees, meaning you may not have to pay anything out of pocket. I'll walk you through exactly how compensation works and review our buyer agreement before we tour a single home.
