livingroomden It was my pleasure to help sellers who took such great pride in their home! These sellers are over-achievers and I get 105% because they did the extra credit. They did all the extra little things to make it a smooth sale!

livingroomden Meet Woody, my third flip! 🏠 She’s named Woody for a reason; there was wood paneling on every single surface of this home. After years of building up HELOCs on all my primaries, I was able to pull together the “cash” to land this off-market deal and now Chris and I are getting to work each evening after we finish our day jobs. We are updating this property ourselves after on the evening and weekends. Manual labor is good for the soul and AI will never be able to take this job. We like working together and hope to make a good profit when we resale at the end of the summer. It’s 4 bed, 2 bath, with a huge 2 car garage/shop, on a quarter acre. I’m not just an agent who talks about real estate investing. I’m in it. If you’re thinking about a flip — or buying or selling with an investor mindset — you want someone in your corner who’s living it, send me a DM! Daily updates on Woody 👉 @kassidybenson

livingroomden At the end of January, Kassidy met with Matt, an old coworker, and his wife Kelly to discuss selling their home of 17 years. The house was in immaculate condition. Before I even suggested it, they already had a list of desired improvements and the most detailed record of all improvements. They followed a meticulous plan of updates, moving out, staging, cleaning, and a coming soon campaign—and on the first day on the market, we received an offer. We waited through the weekend and received five offers, accepted one over the asking price with an appraisal gap, and secured a quick closing, and the final closed price exceeded the sellers’ expectations.

livingroomden Chris and Liz bought their second Denver home/investment: a move-in-ready home in the Speer neighborhood. They won in every way! $25K under asking, $7K in seller concessions, an exceptional rate, and an appraisal that came in $35K over the purchase price. Their new home was thoroughly renovated from top to bottom, featuring exceptional HVAC, a new roof, a new kitchen, four updated bathrooms, and new flooring, plus it includes a lock-off unit for income. This is what smart investing looks like. 🥂

livingroomden Amy owned her condo for 25 years — and when she upgraded in 2019, Kassidy advised her to keep it as a rental. It was a great investment until work took her out of the country. Before listing, Kassidy managed updates including a major drywall refinish for a sleek flat finish, fresh paint, and new light fixtures. The transformation was worth it. We received multiple offers, went under contract $47K over asking, and even when the appraisal came in at list price, the buyer paid $33K over the appraised value. That’s the power of smart preparation and strategic marketing. So proud of this result for the seller! 🏠

livingroomden Cody needed to sell, and we got to work. We started with a deep clean, key repairs, and staging to make the home shine. From there, we carefully prepped due diligence docs and built a strategy around the roof and HVAC — protecting Cody from costly replacement demands before we ever hit the market. The prep paid off. After fours days on market, multiple offers came in, we accepted $10k over asking price and we used a strong backup offer as leverage to negotiate a much more favorable inspection resolution for Cody.
