EVERGREEN COLORADO HOME SEARCH

TIPS ON BUYING A HOME IN EVERGREEN CO

Buying a home in the mountains is very different than buying a home in the city. Mountain homes are more likely to be on well & septic and propane vs natural gas as well as easments and may be located on multiple land parcels. Have you ever dealt with Radon before? It is important to have a real estate broker that specializes in mountain properties in the Denver foothills area. Having an experienced mountain broker can also give you an advantage when presenting and winning the offer process. I also recommend having a local mortgage lender that is familiar with working with mountain properties.

EVERGREEN IS A SEASONAL REAL ESTATE MARKET

Evergreen is a seasonal real estate market and depending on the time of year you are searching for a home the inventory can vary greatly.  From March to early November each year that is high inventory season. This is when the best selection of homes will be available and may be your best chance of purchasing. From November to March each year that is our low inventory season. I tell you this so if you are online searching for homes and you are don't see much to choose from don't be discouraged. During the winter months you just have to be more persistent with your search. You can definitely buy homes during the winter, it can just take a little longer.  If you have more questions about housing inventory levels please don't hesitate to reach out. 

EXPERIENCE EVERGREEN COLORADO

IN EVERGREEN YOU ARE BUYING A LIFESTYLE!
At this point I am sure you have been on Zillow or Realtor.com trying to get a feel for what homes look like in your price range but probably have no idea where these homes are or if they are in good neighborhoods. I know it can be a helpless feeling. When buying a home in the foothills you are not just buying a home you are primarily buying a lifestyle. There are several different types of lifestyles within Evergreen and navigating that without an expert can be daunting. For example if you work from home you will need really good Internet. The best Internet providers are only available in certain areas of Evergreen.  I want to encourage you to reach out to me with any questions you may have. I can help to familiarize you with the area and make sure that both the homes you are looking at and the lifestyle are a fit for your needs. 
THE EVERGREEN COMMUNITY
Evergreen Colorado is a Denver suburb that is a close-nit community of people that embrace the mountain lifestyle. While Evergreen is a small mountain town of about 10,000 people it is not a sleepy mountain town. Evergreen hosts many events every year ranging from the Evergreen Concert Series, Chilli Cookoff, WinterFest, Art Festivals, Music Festivals, rodeo, marathons and so much more. The people are nature lovers and most are very active in hiking, mountain biking, skiing to name a few activities. Evergreen is about having a life you don't need a vacation from. 

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT US...

Working with Shad Phillips and his team at Evergreen Co Realtor was an absolute game-changer for our family. Moving cross-country from Texas to Evergreen, CO, could have been incredibly stressful, but Shad made the entire relocation seamless.His deep local knowledge of Evergreen and the surrounding areas was invaluable in helping us find the perfect home. Since we had already sold our home in Texas, we were on a tight timeline. Shad stepped up, kept communication crystal clear, and aggressively managed every stage of the process to get us closed in just 6 weeks—on time and without a hitch.If you are looking to buy or sell in the Evergreen area, do yourself a favor and call Shad first. I cannot recommend him and his team highly enough!

I worked with Shad Phillips on a real estate transaction in Evergreen, CO, and my experience was extremely disappointing.During the process, there were critical issues with communication, execution, and follow-through that directly impacted the outcome of the deal. Key details were either missed or not properly managed, which ultimately resulted in a financial loss of approximately $25,000 on my end.I made multiple attempts to address these concerns and get clarity during and after the transaction, but the responses were either delayed or insufficient to resolve the situation.Real estate transactions require a high level of attention to detail and accountability, especially when significant money is involved. Based on my experience, I would strongly caution others to ask very detailed questions and ensure full transparency before moving forward.Unfortunately, this was a costly experience, and I would not choose to work with this agent again.

I had a fantastic experience working with Shad as my Evergreen Co Realtor to purchase my new home. He went above and beyond to work around my busy schedule and was deeply invested in finding the right fit for me. What stood out most was his balance of professionalism and personal care; he didn't just help me with the transaction, he also shared great insights into becoming a resident of the Denver foothills. If you want an agent who is thorough, honest, and truly has your back, work with Shad.

If you’re looking for an Evergreen, CO Realtor, I could not recommend Shad Phillips more. He helped us buy our first home with complete ease, confidence, direction and patience. As first time home buyers, he made the process completely seamless. We were thrilled to have landed our dream home. Just as noteworthy, we loved all of the resources that the Phillips Team/Evergreen Experience shares about the nuances of mountain living (city vs well water, accessibility, amenities, schools, etc) and detailed information about the neighborhoods in Evergreen, so we could go into the process prepared and with confidence. I think it truly made a difference working with a realtor who knows and loves the community so well. Shad is the best!

When I decided to upgrade to a larger home, the Shad Phillips and the Phillips Team, an Evergreen Co Realtor sold my condo in record time! I’m so pleased another new owner can enjoy the ‘Evergreen Experience’. Thank you, Phillips Team!
