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.

Buying or selling a home can be incredibly stressful--and we were doing both at the same time--but Brian and Jennifer made the entire process feel manageable and even enjoyable :) They were efficient, responsive, and went above and beyond at every step. They advocated for our needs, negotiated fairly and strategically, and always had our best interests at heart. There were moments when the process got overwhelming, and they were there--not just as realtors, but as compassionate partners--listening with patience, sympathy, and grace. They basically held our hands through it all. More than just great realtors, they're genuinely kind-hearted people. You can tell they love what they do, and they care deeply about the people they work with. We are incredibly grateful for them and would recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and truly thoughtful real estate team.

She has found amazing homes for many of my friends and her tireless advocacy and commitment to her work shines through in everything that she does. She knows the real estate scene here incredibly well and will be an honest and rock-solid partner throughout the sales or purchasing process. You will find a warm, welcoming presence in Jennifer and she will continue to interact with you long after the sale/purchase of your home with her great newsletter about happenings in Boulder and the surrounding area. Her sense of design is impeccable and she can connect you with many other professionals in the area if you're looking for help with landscaping, interior design, or even community services in general.

This agency focuses more on luxury homes worth close to if not more than a million dollars. Their…read moresales pitch just did not reflect their performance regarding our property. We were referred to Bobby Kelly through a friend and when he came over we were sold on his sales pitch but after over 40 plus showings in over two months, he only shown our property once and coincidentally right after we expressed a little frustration. When we did get positive feedback, we would be the one to reach out to them asking what the status, what the potential buyer wanted, what can we do, etc. We are very unsatisfied with this agency because of the lack of communication on their part and lack of interest to sell our home. I give them two stars because their photographer took amazing pictures of our house but I assume any other agency can do that. If you're not in a hurry to sell your home and want amazing pictures posted online then this is the agency for you. If you are on a timeline to sell your home, want helpful advice, someone who IS interested in selling, great communication...then this agency is not the best choice.

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. Overall, she was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and easy to work with. We felt supported the entire time and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

She exemplifies what you want and need when you place your trust in a real estate professional. Our family was faced with a particularly challenging sale with a multi-family dwelling, and there were many unknowns. Janet did everything possible to educate all of us on newly-changed laws in Colorado relating to insurance coverage on multi-family units, and to keep this townhome active on the market in a very dull and depressed selling market. Ultimately, she achieved the best results for us in a tough market, where tariffs were newly imposed, and things were very challenging. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

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 we first moved to Boulder, CO, the Ratay team accommodated our needs and request for a great rental in South Boulder.

He only wanted us to know our options and make the right decision for a lord g time investment. In the end due to REMAX connections, we were informed about an upcoming property that not only met our needs and location preference, it was also in our budget. Thanks for everything Ratay Realty for our up coming closing and our next chapter. Best Steve

Jim Thomas began a contact through one of our inquiries. His communication was not over the top; just keeping in touch. When we decided to become serious about buying, Jim passed us to his colleague Greg Johnson. Greg was responsive, professional, and detail-oriented. 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.
