My husband and I were looking to move to the Denver metropolitan area from out of state, having visited only once. Going in, we had very little insight into the different areas of Denver and were scattered in our approach to house-hunting (read: looking at 5 or 6 different cities/suburbs at once, all with completely different feels). Sofia's guidance, encouragement, and knowledge helped us narrow our search and strengthen our vision for what we wanted the next several years of our lives to look like -- no small feat! House-hunting from ~1000 miles away is tricky business, but Sofia made it possible. My husband and I put together a spreadsheet of dozens of houses to tour once we were next able to visit Denver, but Sofia was able to visit most of them on our behalf and weed out all the ones she was confident were not a great fit for us -- and she was right on every account. Through detailed notes and video tours, Sofia shared minute nuances that zillow photography just can't capture -- like the amount of natural light in a space or the overall vibes (good and bad). We came to trust Sofia's vibe meter better than our own. On one occasion, Sofia saved us from making an ill-advised, sight-unseen offer on a house we were enamored with because she thought, at the last minute, to check the ceiling height of the otherwise lovely finished basement. This is how we realized that it was of nonstandard height and would be basically unusable for my too-tall husband. Neither of us had thought to ask, but Sofia's approach to vetting a house is orderly and exhaustive (and now involves keeping a tape measure in her car at all times should the need arise for ceiling height checking). She was also incredibly patient and thoughtful when answering all our nitty-gritty questions, and always willing to go back and check a room or a house or an area again if we had follow-up questions. The house we ultimately bought was all Sofia's doing. It was just shy of our square footage parameters by 50 square feet or so, so it would never have showed up on our radar without Sofia's prompting. We were in town for just a few days to see several houses on our list, but none of them were striking joy, so Sofia shared a few additional houses to see if we'd considered them. The One True House was on that list. We loved it, and Sofia moved lightning-quick to pull together the paperwork for our offer. It was accepted the very next day without incident. The rest of the process went as smoothly as possible with the help of Sofia and Leah, the loan officer Sofia had referred us to. Sofia navigated negotiations for house fixes/mitigations with ease and aplomb. She handled the hiring and management of all the specialists and technicians and what-have-you that we needed to get the house ready for move-in, all while communicating with us clearly and efficiently every step of the way. She was always a phone call away when we needed her. She even left us the most darling welcome home basket for our toddler and dogs! This was not our first closing, but it was our easiest one, and it made buying and closing on a house feel positively easy. We would highly and wholeheartedly recommend Sofia for all your house-hunting/buying/closing needs. read more

I worked with Sofia this summer to purchase a home in the Boulder area. I was a first-time buyer, so I had a ton of questions and needed a lot of hand-holding throughout the process. I had initial phone calls with three different realtors, and Sofia easily stood out - she was both knowledgeable and very easy to talk to! I had planned to fly into Colorado for a long weekend in mid-August to see some homes with her, but ended up moving the trip up to the week prior as there were some new listings that I was interested in. Despite the incredibly last-minute notice, Sofia was able to meet with me for a showing the next day and even cleared out an entire Saturday for us to see more places. Throughout the house hunt, Sofia was incredibly organized and efficient, which was so helpful for me as a long-distance buyer so that I could get as much as possible done in one trip. I put in an offer on one home and was outbid, but Sofia asked the listing agent to let her if know they heard of anything else in that complex becoming available. Coincidentally, there was another unit that was going on the market soon, and I got to see it and put in an offer very early - before it had been on the market for long. Because we were able to move so quickly, the offer was accepted without a bidding war - all due to Sofia's diligence and proactivity. Throughout the closing process, Sofia was very organized, setting up inspections and working with my lender, and she kept me in the loop while still doing all of the heavy lifting on her end. I had a lot of questions throughout that month and she always responded in a timely manner (often within minutes). On the whole, I feel very fortunate to have worked with Sofia - because of her expertise and dedication, I was able to buy a home that I love, at a reasonable price, in an incredibly competitive market for buyers. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy in the Denver/Boulder area! read more

I have known Sofia for years, and we have used her professional expertise twice. Sofia is a person who takes the time to listen to your wants, needs, and concerns, and she doesn't forget them. She walked us through the home buying process, and both times I knew I would end up with something I would be very happy with. The first time we started looking when I was 6 months pregnant and finally closed when I was 9+ months pregnant. Sofia was so great with my needs and my mood swings - she wouldn't let me settle just so I could be "done" with the process. The second time around was no different. She helped us find a home we are in love with, while helping us transition and deal with Covid restrictions. She also got us the best deal on our previous home. I'd recommend her to anyone - new to the area or not, she'll help you on whatever level you feel comfortable with, and she won't stop until you are satisfied! read more

Being out of state I found working with Sofia, whether from afar or in person, to be a wonderful experience. Sofia is honest, professional, knowledgeable,patient and down to earth friendly.

I highly recommend Sofia Lock as a Real Estate Agent read more

My husband and I are SO happy we were able to find and work with Sofia for buying our first home. She was able to connect us to a lender and we ended up getting qualified for more than we thought, which opened up more opportunity for us. The real estate market in Denver is extremely competitive and on the house we ended up getting, we completely owe it to Sofia's hard work. We were the first to see the home (thanks to her persistence) and we ended up huddled at a coffee shop while Sofia quickly typed up our offer. We had a little bit of a bidding war and came out on top. We honestly never thought we would be able to get a home last year and we couldn't have asked for a more smooth and rewarding journey to getting our abode. Thank you, Sofia! read more

My husband and I did A TON of research before deciding on a realtor to sell our Wash Park condo while we were living out of state in Austin. We met with a few realtors when we were in town, but there was just something about Sofia that made us feel like she actually cared about us as people and her knowledge about the Denver market was clear. We were in the process of evicting a tenant, and Sofia was patient, flexible, and even tried to help us as much as she could. She cared, and we will be forever grateful! She was extremely proactive, timely, professional, knowledgeable, and handled negotiations perfectly. Could not have been happier with our choice and would highly recommend! read more

In 2014, I've decided to sell my home in Thornton because I was in the process of moving to North Carolina. I've had the choice to work with all kinds of realty companies, since they all send ads and junk mail almost daily. However, I've decided to go with One Realty due to their great reputation. I've had the previlege of working with Sofia Lock from this company and I couldn't have been happier. From day one, Sofia has been completely proffessional and efficient in her approach. The initial consultation included among other items: the walkthrough of the home, step by step review of important details that I needed to do to prepare the home for sale, number crunching, and an overall high-level outline of the process. From that point, Sofia was always available for questions and concerns, and consistently kept me on schedule for important deadlines. I was also impressed with her guidance on how to accesorize and how the home should be staged. My experience with Sofia and One Realty was positive. Their professional guidance and expertise made the otherwise grueling process of selling a home a much easier experience. Literally within 30 minutes of my home being listed, I had a prospective buyer and agent knocking on my door wanting a tour, not to mention I've had multiple offers the following day over asking price! If anyone has any questions about my experience with Sofia Lock and One Realty, feel free to leave a comment of this review and I'll get back to you. read more

My husband and I were looking for two very long years and went through two different realitors. Sofia was recommended by my co-worker. After two years my husband and I became really picky and Sofia was patient with both of us.

Sofia helped me sell my home in Sunnyside. To be honest, I'd worked with a couple of different agents in the past when I sold and purchased my previous home, and didn't walk away very impressed with the level of service I received, and had a bit of a bad impression of real estate agents as a result. Working with Sofia was completely different. She did everything possible to try to get me as much money as possible for my home, even bringing in some of her own personal property to help stage my home for sale. She was very responsive to my questions about the process and she treated all of my concerns with patience and concern. I would highly recommend her services to others looking for someone experienced with the Denver market. read more

Sofia is very easy and accommodating to work with. We sold our home and we had our own recommendations on what we wanted to do. Given this was our first time working with Sofia, I expected some push back since we asked to work with a photographer she didn't know but she was more than accommodating and always very flexible while also offering her expertise. I also appreciated that she was always quick to expedite concerns and questions we had in the midst of our sale. Sofia is very thoughtful, kind and, not only wants what is best for her client, but also the buyer (in our instance). She strives to leave a great impression with everyone involved in the sale. read more
