Have you visited the Shea SPACES community in Highlands Ranch?!?

If you have not and are interested, you really should take a visit to the model homes. 

I am planning a Shea SPACES Home Tour in the coming month, so please email me for me details at bhengst1@gmail.com. 

This community not only features, open floor plans, green living, modern and updating finishings, and amazing mountains views, but also everything else that the Highlands Ranch community offers.  Take advantage of all four of our rec centers and all the wonderful events that go on here in the Ranch. 

The Shea SPACES community has has GREAT SUCCESS in 2011 with nearly 100 homes being sold and plenty more in store for 2012.

Call me today to make arrangements to see the models or to see any of the current inventory.

Why should you list your Highlands Ranch home NOW???!?!

- Inventory is LOW right now!!  We are seeing inventory being around 30% below what we would see in a normal market. 

- Since inventory is LOW, you have LESS COMPETITION!  For all of those folks who feel like they need to wait until summer to list, why not list now and have your property under contract at a higher price BEFORE the official start of summer. 

- MAY is National Moving Month!!  Buyers are buying RIGHT NOW! 

Contact me today for a complimentary home analysis to see how your home stacks up amongst the rest of the homes in your neighborhood!

I live and work in Highlands Ranch, CO as a REALTOR and I thank my lucky stars everyday!!! 

Here are my top 5 Reasons for LOVING Highlands Ranch!  If you are interested in any of the other 100 reasons, feel free to contact me at bhengst1@gmail.com. 

1.  Our amazing rec centers - We have four rec centers that have full service gyms, feature climbing walls, tennis courts, batting cages, pools, hot tubs, a hockey rink and so much more!!  These are included in our HOA and really are great facilities for family activity. 

2.  Our homes - There is really something for everyone here in Highlands Ranch!  We have first time homebuyer opportunities starting in the low $200s as well as any step-up home imaginable as well as luxury homes in gated communities!  I have my next several homes and neighborhoods already picked out!  Email me at bhengst1@gmail.com and I will tell you all about them!  :-)

3.  Our Sunday Farmers Market - Every Sunday from May through October from 10-2PM we have our farmers market!!!  This offers an option of supporting local businesses, buying fresh produce, and just enjoying a stroll around while having your morning coffee and danish, which you can find at the market as well!  Feel free to bring your dogs, there's even treats for them!

4.  HRCA - Our Community Association is very much involved in planning great family events that help us celebrate holidays as well as stay connected and involved within the community.  Some of my favorites include the Doggy Splash, the July 4th Parade and animal adoption day as well as the Taste of Highlands Ranch events and craft fairs. 

5.  The views and feel - We have some spectacular mountain views around Highlands Ranch as well as just a really nice homey feel!!  We are close to shopping, and tons of local businesses and I just love sitting down to eat dinner thinking about how much I love being able to live and work in Highlands Ranch. 

Let me help you find your perfect Highlands Ranch home!!!

Want to know the “skinny” on what has been selling in your neighborhood and for how much?  Ever wonder what your house is really worth in our current market?

If you ever think about these things or have any real estate questions, I promise that our PRICE CHANGE MAPS will help keep YOU educated on current market trends.  While the news always reports on the “Denver Metro” real estate market, at Your Castle Real Estate we look at the data based on each neighborhood to get a better idea of where homes are selling for more money and less days on market, versus looking at areas that are hurting to make more conscious investment decisions.

Email me at bhengst1@gmail to get a copy of your local price change map!  Here is a sample of the Denver area.
