First-Time Buyers
Very easy to work with, flexible, and professional.
Even for a first-time home buyer, the Agents for Home Buyers team made it easy and stress free as possible. Very easy to work with, flexible, and professional. They provide you with a lot of analytics and data on the market, which really helps you understand the overall market and gets you looking at properties in areas you would like to investigate. Since they work as a team, it’s easier to schedule and view properties. The people they recommended for the home inspection and loan were also great. Overall, they made the home buying process very smooth. – Jordan
I can’t say enough great things about Agents for Home Buyers! As first-time home buyers, we relied heavily on the team. They were timely, thorough, professional, trustworthy and a joy to work with! My husband and I are so happy with our first home in Lafayette! I highly recommend using Agents for Home Buyers for your next home purchase! – Sarah
They gave us the power to make informed decisions.
As first-time home buyers, my wife and I wanted to make sure that we had as much information about buying a home as possible. From the first day we met with the Agents for Home Buyers team, they ensured that we knew everything about the home-buying market for our price range and neighborhood interests. They gave us the power to make informed decisions about the purchase price, how to negotiate with the owner, and what considerations should be made for any future improvements we hoped to make to the house or landscape. At every point in the process, Agents for Home Buyers reminded us that our concerns were of utmost importance and they ensured that every question was answered to our satisfaction. In short, they made the home-buying process enjoyable, made sure that we would be happy with our purchase for years to come. Thank you, Agents for Home Buyers! – Kevin
As a first-time home buyer, the Agents for Home Buyers team helped me a lot. I’m very impressed by how carefully documents were prepared and how quickly they responded my emails. They never urged me to make any decisions, instead, they were very patient and willing to take a lot of time to respond to my questions…and explain important things I would have never thought of. I’ll definitely recommend them to my friends if they’re going to buy a property. – Beth
Helpful insight when we were uncertain what to think.
Agents for Home Buyers is the best! They listened carefully to the questions and concerns of first-time home-buyers with patience. They provided helpful insight when we were uncertain what to think, explained things about the housing market in a way that was easy to understand, and had so much data to help us make informed decisions! They were also quite responsive and easy to work with. I always felt like we received excellent attention and never felt like we were pushed back for bigger clients. – Jess
We never felt pressured by the team.
The team at Agents for Home Buyers is a great resource for anyone looking to buy in the Boulder Area. As first-time home buyers in a very strong seller’s market, we are deeply grateful for the extremely hardworking, patient, thorough, and knowledgeable Agents for Home Buyers team that helped us find a perfect home for us. Over the six months of our search we never felt pressured by the team, but the team kept us well informed of potential properties, sent mailings to potential homes that fit our needs, provided valuable insight and guidance on pros and cons to purchasing a particular property, and helped us navigate the details of contracts, inspection, etc. We love our new home and have recommended Agents for Home Buyers to our friends searching and all have had good experiences with the team as well. – Alice
Attending a home buyer seminar turned out to be one of the best ways I could have spent a Saturday morning. As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot to learn. The seminar taught me what I needed to know and brought me up to speed. I especially appreciated your step-by-step chart of The Process of Buying a Home as well as your List of Buying Your Home on The Front Range: Things to Watch Out For. When I was ready, you helped me find just the right condo and even steered me away from some that would have been wrong for me. When I decide to buy again, I will definitely use Agents for Home Buyers and I would encourage anyone — especially those buying for the first time — to do the same. – Leslie
The agents at Agents for Home Buyers are a rare find in the realty business.
The agents at Agents for Home Buyers are a rare find in the realty business. They are extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of home buying and took great care to communicate with us in an approachable, appealing way. They did not try to force the process, allowing us to discover what we really wanted, and keeping us continuously informed as new houses were listed. Their understanding of the psychology of the home buying process helped us through the frustrations we encountered with the current highly competitive market. They know the relevant issues with candidate homes. Perhaps most importantly, they understand the legalese of contracts and can readily distill it for those of us who don’t. The agents at Agents for Home Buyers really go the extra mile. When we were finally ready to make a bid, they worked with us (on a weekend) until we were satisfied with every detail. We had a very good experience with Agents for Home Buyers and highly recommend them to anyone interested in buying a home, especially first-time buyers. — Brad and Bhavna
I wanted to let you know that Alan and I are very glad that we chose you to help us find and buy our home. It was a great comfort to know that there was always at least one knowledgeable individual in the process that was really looking out for our interests, especially as first-time buyers. We are enjoying our new home very much and recommend your company to any and all house hunting friends. – Amanda
The team at Agents for Home Buyers were great. This was our first home buying experience and they were great in helping us to avoid some pitfalls I’m fairly certain we would have missed without them. Highly recommended. – Michael
You made the whole process painless and educational.
We are settled in now and very pleased with our new home. We just wanted to thank you for all your help in finding the house. Since we were first-time buyers, there were plenty of things we overlooked. You were mindful of this and working with Agents for Home Buyers was a great learning experience. You found out what type of place we were looking for and did not try to change our minds yet informed us of the pros and cons of various choices. From finding the best place to dealing with the piles of paperwork, you made the whole process painless and educational. We happily and in good conscience recommend your services to those who are looking to buy a home in the area. – Yvonne and Eric
They wanted to find us a home that we loved for the best possible price. And they did!
This was our first property purchase, and the team at Agents for Home Buyers was fantastic. They were diligent, communicative, conscientious, patient, and affable. We had very inflexible schedules, yet they were always happy to accommodate. We implore prospective purchasers to use exclusive buyer’s agents, as they have your best interests in mind. Not for one nanosecond did we feel as though our best interests were anything but paramount to the A4HB team. They didn’t want to find us a home; they wanted to find us a home that we loved for the best possible price. And they did! – Jack
The team at Agents for Home Buyers were wonderful agents for us. They helped us to get into a house quickly we are now living happily in our first choice for a home! Lindsey and Norris were quick to respond to our requests and questions and helped guide us through the process of our first home purchase by simplifying the process. We highly recommend Agents for Home Buyers when you begin your search for a new house. – Dustin
The Best in the Business
Our experience with Agents four Home Buyers was nothing short of incredible. My wife and I started with a very broad search area, touring houses ranging from downtown Boulder to Nederland, and even out to Larimer county. The team at Agents for Home Buyers was not only willing to accommodate such a broad search, but enthusiastic to do so. We ended up putting in an offer on a foothills property, and this is when the real adventure started. There were several complications regarding the permitting of the wells and deed restrictions with the property. The team had incredible expertise in dealing with such issues, and guided us through each step of the very complicated process of sorting out these issues. Lindsey, Shannon, and Norris make a great team, and I think a prospective homebuyer would be hard pressed to find a better advocate to help them navigate the home buying process. – Brandon
I can’t thank Shannon, Norris and the Team enough for your time and attention (and patience!) as I tried to find my “ideal.” I can’t imagine there’s a better team to work with anywhere. – Terry
We first met Norris in 1992. We had planned on renting a home, but Norris showed us around the area and we decided to buy. We’re so glad we did. We worked with the team at Agents for Home Buyers more recently when we moved back to the area. They manage the process so well that it relieves a lot of the usual stress. The best in the business! – Lee
They listen and bring a rigorous, analytical approach that not only helps you find the home you want, but also helps you avoid buying a home you don’t.
Simply put, the agents at Agents for Home Buyers are the best buyer’s agents out there. They helped us purchase two homes, the second of which entailed shepherding us through the toughest buyer’s market in recent memory, patiently looking at over 30 homes and making more than 10 offers before finally securing our current home. They listen and bring a rigorous, analytical approach that not only helps you find the home you want, but also helps you avoid buying a home you don’t. And that’s what separates them. They are committed to helping you find the right home for you, based on your expressed desires, not just finding a home to close a deal and collect a commission. They are also extraordinarily diligent and detail-oriented. Those qualities led them to uncover that an unscrupulous seller was attempting to defraud us on the day before closing, saving us from what would have been a nightmare home. If you want to find the right home for you, call Agents 4 Home Buyers. – Kyle
We interviewed a number of agents before choosing Agents for Home Buyers to help us buy our first house in Boulder back in 2004. We made the right decision. The Agents for Home Buyers team is, by far, the best in their field. They are highly knowledgeable about the local market and provide a personal service that is honest and reliable. Their knowledge of current Colorado real estate law is second to none. The experience of working with A4HB was entirely different than other real estate agents we had used in the past. With A4HB, the emphasis was on helping us find the right place and ensuring we understood the home buying process rather than pushing us to buy something. When we decided to buy a second property, there was no question who to choose. Thanks for the excellent service! – John

As an attorney, I was impressed with their thorough understanding of the details of the forms and transactions beyond any other realtors I have worked with.
I am a graduate-school professor with exacting grading standards, and I give Agents for Home Buyers an A+. Agents for Home Buyers represented me on purchasing a home in southwest Boulder. I couldn’t ask for better service. Working with them gave me peace of mind from the offer to the closing. As an attorney, I was impressed with their thorough understanding of the details of the forms and transactions beyond any other realtors I have worked with over the years. They even did in-depth research about clauses and advocated on my behalf for changes in the title insurance policy. I worked primarily with Lindsey, but Shannon and Norris jumped in whenever needed. Lindsey is incredibly organized and kept everything on schedule. She gave me plenty of notice of what was needed and upcoming deadlines. She also kept after the home inspectors, mortgage company, and the seller’s agent to follow up on every detail. She is easy to work with and immediately responded whenever I had any question. If I ever need to buy another house, I’d go with Agents for Home Buyers. Because they helped me find my dream home, however, I don’t think I’ll have to. I just wish that Agents for Home Buyers could have represented me in selling my old house, but they are committed to representing only buyers. So, if you are looking for a home to buy, I recommend Agents for Home Buyers without reservation. I’m convinced Agents for Home Buyers are the best! – K.K.
Tom and I agree that your style of finding a house for your clients is just the best.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the time you spent with us in the last couple of weeks. We have moved around an awful lot (20 plus moves) and experienced quite a number of real estate agents. The team at Agents for Home Buyers is by far the best we have ever encountered. It has been such a pleasurable experience to select houses with your system and to determine what works and what doesn’t. I know I would not have been able to find the house you found for us and to make such an informed decision without your help. I feel I received a real education in buying real estate. Tom and I agree that your style of finding a house for your clients is just the best. There is no pressure and no pushing in one direction or another. You are always available and always so well prepared and informed. We count ourselves very fortunate to have found your brochure in the grocery store in Boulder and to have been able to have a meeting with you within minutes of our calling you. We look forward to our move… and to living in Colorado. – Anneliese
Working with you was the most pleasant real estate experience we have known, and we’ve been through plenty. Because of your technological experience we were able to locate the house we wanted within minutes after it became available. Within an hour the deal was made. Norris, you and your team are real pros. – Norm
Information Is Power
They were able to tell us which things added a lot of value, while pointing out anything that might make it harder to sell in the future.
Agents for Homebuyers is great! We were moving to Colorado from out of state and they sent us a ton of information on what had sold recently to help us get a feel for the market. They have very good knowledge of the market and houses in general. We found it very helpful when we were looking at houses that they were able to tell us which things added a lot of value, while pointing out anything that might make it harder to sell in the future. All without pressuring us either way on making an offer. Once we decided to make an offer, they did a great job helping us figure out what to offer, taking care of all the paperwork, scheduling inspections, making sure we were on top of our deadlines. During the offer and inspection process, we felt like they really wanted to help us get the best price we could and negotiate as much as possible when a few issues came up on the inspection. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy. – Julia
We appreciated their strong ethics.
Great team. We appreciated the well-organized information and analytics so that we could make a decision of both the brain and the heart. Very nice people, fun to look at houses with, interesting to talk with, and very good at looking out for us, the buyers. We also appreciated their strong ethics. – Wendy
We were referred to Agents for Home Buyers by good friends… and we were not disappointed. They were responsive whenever we had questions or wanted to view a house. They provided helpful statistics and general information about the neighborhoods we were interested in as well as others that were similar. They offered helpful advice at each showing and ultimately steered us to the best house for us. We’ve been in our home for over two years now and still comment about how happy we are in the place they helped us buy. – Jessica
They thoughtfully provide insider information and all the expertise you’d expect from-well, experts.
The team at Agents for Home Buyers went above and beyond in finding the perfect house for us. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. They thoughtfully provide insider information and all the expertise you’d expect from-well, experts. You can’t go wrong here. Claudia gets special mention because she drove us to approximately 16 zillion houses with not a word of complaint. Her knowledge and enthusiasm-as well as her sense of humor-really made the house hunting not a chore but an adventure. Thanks so much! – Jocelyn
In the spring of last year, we purchased a residence in Louisville using the services of Agents for Home Buyers. Norris and the team were extremely helpful during our home search process and their advice and knowledge of the local market was invaluable. They were prompt and courteous in providing information and returning our calls. During contract negotiations they gave timely, expert advice on prices, terms, and market conditions. They accompanied the inspector during the home inspection and noted several items that needed correction, and subsequently negotiated remedial action on the seller’s part. During closing, they gave clear, lucid explanations and guidance that helped us understand a complicated legal/financial procedure. They have followed up since closing with information on general market conditions and the outlook for the purchase of our next move up house. All in all, Agents for Home Buyers has made our home search/purchase process less intimidating, more enjoyable, and saved us money. We have recommended Norris and his team to several of our friends and plan on using them for our next home purchase. – Ron and Priscilla
No matter how much you read online, there are things that you would not know until someone with expertise tells you about them. The A4HB team revealed many such things to us.
Agents for Home Buyers helped us buy our first home in Broomfield. We had a list of buyer’s agents in the area and we interviewed a few before deciding on them. The A4HB team has an elaborate process in place, all the way from initial scouting and property visits, to making first offers and negotiations, through home inspections, to the closing. Everyone should use the maps they provide in their first meeting – they are invaluable and can help you learn a lot about the different neighborhoods. We also liked how they help you narrow down – use the maps to get a feel for the neighborhoods, do a rapid visit of 15-20 homes to get a feel for floor plans, and then visit your choices at length. And they will provide you the latest statistics from the market (if you are into numbers, then it’s very useful information). Having Norris during the visits will help you learn a whole lot about the anatomy of a house. Having Lindsey will help you see how living in a house would be like. One of the advantages of a team approach. They will also get you in touch with some of the most knowledgeable professionals related to the home inspection process. They provide very good advice on approaching negotiations and have an excellent grasp on how severe an inspection identified problem is or could become. Finally, they read the entire title commitment (realtors do not do that), and with help from their legal advisor, identified couple of problems. They entered into a discussion (legal discussions can be very involved) with the title company and managed to get all those issues rectified. For first time home buyers, this is new territory and no matter how much you read online, there are things that you would not know until someone with expertise tells you about them. The A4HB team revealed many such things to us – building codes, basement types, meth tests, CO detectors, lot types, sump pumps, etc. They are knowledgeable, intelligent and affable. We strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a home in the areas north of Denver. – Rinku and Saonty
They don’t “sell you the property” but give you information so you can make an informed decision. They certainly made the potentially difficult and traumatic experience of buying a home a pleasant one for us.
Norris Minick, supported by his team at Agents for Home Buyers, is like no other real estate agent, given his character and approach to his job (just look at his Web page and you’ll see what we mean). The team at Agents for Home Buyers are hardworking, thorough, and serious about what is a serious thing for every buyer. They don’t “sell you the property” but give you information so you can make an informed decision. They certainly made the potentially difficult and traumatic experience of buying a home a pleasant one for us. – Ana and Davor
We had an incredibly positive experience with the members of the Agents for Home Buyers team. Their knowledge of housing trends, charts of property values and economic/social analyses, including neighborhoods, schools, and communities was indispensable in our home buying choice. In addition, they have vast knowledge of Colorado real estate law and what can be done to protect the buyer’s interests. They also maintain an extensive list of reputable contractors. The home inspector they recommended was top notch. I highly recommend the A4HB team and I will certainly use them again and again. – Jim
Agents for Home Buyers has a lot to offer. The data they provide is extensive and they are very knowledgeable about the greater Boulder area, including the north suburbs of Denver near Boulder. They did help me get an understanding of the houses available for my criteria and I saw most of them before deciding on this house. They also helped negotiate the price for the new home. The mortgage and closing were fairly easy due to the builder financing. We closed in 2.5 weeks. I would use them again and recommend their consideration, since their knowledge on representing the buyer seemed above the rest. I interviewed 5 agents before deciding. A4HB were the first ones to be interviewed, usually a poor spot. – Deepa
Great People to Work With
My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Agents for Home Buyers. Everyone on the team was very dedicated.
My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Agents for Home Buyers. Everyone on the team was very dedicated. Lindsey accompanied us to several showings even while being very pregnant. Claudia led us to several showings with a broken ankle. We quickly found a property and put an offer in. They brought in expert inspectors that discovered some important issues that would’ve been missed by a less thorough inspection. Ultimately, we ended that contract and their help navigating the process was crucial. Shortly thereafter, we found another property. Lindsey helped us negotiate a winning offer just a day before giving birth; then Norris took over and led us again through a thorough inspection that went well. Finally, they guided us through a very smooth closing. The daily updated emails on properties was very convenient and helped us find potential properties to tour. And the statistics that Norris has put together were very beneficial in understanding the market and helping us decide where we should search for properties and what types of properties we would be able to afford. From start to finish, we had a great experience with Agents for Home Buyers. We highly recommend them for anyone looking to purchase a property. — Walt
The team at Agents for Home Buyers was invaluable in our search for a home in the incredibly competitive housing market in Boulder County. Their knowledge of the area, and the inventory, helped us find properties before other buyers. Their experience representing buyers meant they had tips and tricks that helped our offers stand out, without us spending a ton more money. We appreciated their help so much…and we enjoyed the time we spent working with them. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a home in the area. — Abby Jean
They are super knowledgeable, extremely efficient and totally great people.
If you do not have an agent, and you’re looking for a home, then these are the people you should choose to help you. They are super knowledgeable, extremely efficient and totally great people. Even ten years on we have not forgotten the great service we received. When we buy again, there is no-one else we would consider. They will guide you through the entire process with professionalism and honesty. — Sine
Thanks for your help in finding our home. We enjoyed working with you. You folks at Agents for Home Buyers proved yourselves as honest, ethical and sincere agents. You can be certain we will be recommending you to everyone we know who is in the market for a home. — Michael
We were so impressed that when we started looking for our retirement home in 2017 we never even considered another agency.
We were intrigued by the buyer’s agent concept, so we signed up with Agents for Home Buyers back in 2009, when we were looking for a “just until retirement” house. We were so impressed that when we started looking for our retirement home in 2017 we never even considered another agency. These people are incredibly knowledgeable about houses and the local real estate market. They are going to tell you about any concerns they observe in a house, from the serious (black mold in the basement) to the easily fixable (worn carpets). I recall viewing one house with Lindsey and she told us it was a “scrape,” meaning that it had severe problems and it would be cheaper to clear the lot and start over. These folks will give you their best, unbiased recommendation about a property. I think the best way to describe their approach is that they are not simply trying to sell you a house, they are working to help you find the best home available within the parameters you set. — Bill
The brokers at Agents for Home Buyers are knowledgeable, efficient, and caring buyers’ agents. With their expert advice and service, we were able to find a home in the Boulder area the very first day we spent viewing homes. They advised us on every detail of making a home purchase, putting together an offer, setting up home inspections, and even arranging financing. They are compassionate people who listen to what the buyer wants. Highly recommended! — Denise and Robert
My husband had bought his first condo with Agents for Home Buyers, so when we decided to buy our first home together, Chris recommended them hands-down. I am so glad he did! It was so refreshing to work with agents who only represented our best interests in the process. They listened closely to our desires and then matched us up with a fantastic home that met our needs. I highly recommend working with Agents for Home Buyers! — Wendy
They do a great job, and they do it for you, the buyer, not the seller…. ever!
The team at Agents for Home Buyers are AWESOME. They know the market and the profession well. When we worked with them to buy our home in Old Town Longmont, we never doubted that they were the team for us. We worked with them on and off for years and enjoyed their help during the whole process and found the perfect house for our needs/wants. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a home. They are professional and yet real people. They do a great job, and they do it for you, the buyer, not the seller…. ever! — Melissa
Agents for Home Buyers helped me purchase a home five years ago and I enjoyed working with them so much that I came back last year when I was in the market again. I appreciate their skill at quickly identifying a property’s specific strong and weak points as well as their ability to help me understand a property’s potential within the context of the overall trends and local variations of the real estate market in this part of the state. I like the idea of a buyer broker who represents me and the people at Agents for Home Buyers work very hard at making sure you are happy. I recommend them without reservation. — John
The team at Agents for Home Buyers are so attentive and helpful! They listened to our needs and helped us take control of our home search. They were there every step of the way through a very difficult market. I would recommend them to anybody! — Angela
These tireless people drove us all over the Boulder area for four days!
We came in from out of state, looking for a home in Colorado, and by luck met Norris Minick and the team at Agents for Home Buyers. These tireless people drove us all over the Boulder area for four days! Although we saw some nice homes, none of them hit us just right. We returned two months later, and Agents for Home Buyers spent four more days showing us at least 35 or 40 homes in areas south of Denver. Success! We found a home in the Timbers, outside Parker, and closed the deal. Norris and his team have our highest recommendation. The man won’t quit! — Robin and John
Working with the Agents for Home Buyers team was the best decision I made after deciding to move to Boulder. They listened carefully to our needs, made the most efficient use of our time, and help us quickly find exactly what we were looking for. Thanks to Agents for Home Buyers, we got the house we wanted at the price we wanted to pay. You can’t ask for more than that! — Tom
They are genuinely 5-star agents.
I have bought two houses with the Agents for Home Buyers team. They are very patient, and I like their no-pressure style. They are buyer’s agents and never list anything for sale. They do a rational analysis of pros and cons of each property. They are very thorough in writing contracts and makes sure there is no ambiguity in the language. If you are clear about your goals in buying a home, they will make sure they are met. They provide ample statistical data along with maps to help you narrow down the areas. They are genuinely 5-star agents. I recommended them to 3 of my friends and they all have bought houses with them. — Cynthia
They were so patient with me and really educated me on homes and home buying.
I worked with Agents for Home Buyers when I bought my first home – a condo in Lafayette. I just love my place. They were so patient with me and really educated me on homes and home buying. They worked with me for over a year before I found the place I wanted. I trust their advice and would certainly work with them in the future if I buy a new home. — Angela
Integrity, honesty, reliability, knowledgeable and always pleasant. The team helped me to buy two condos in Boulder. The entire process lasted over a year. — Ya and Yi
As a first-time home buyer, the Agents for Home Buyers team helped me a lot. I’m very impressed by how carefully documents were prepared and how quickly they responded my emails. They never urged me to make any decisions, instead, they were very patient and willing to take a lot of time to respond to my questions…and explain important things I would have never thought of. I’ll definitely recommend them to my friends if they’re going to buy a property. — Beth
They made the stressful process of purchasing a home very seamless and easy.
My husband and I had the best experience when purchasing our home in February 2018. We worked with the Agents for Home Buyers team and they helped us find the perfect home and walked us through the whole process from start to finish. They made the stressful process of purchasing a home very seamless and easy. We love our home and are so grateful to have found such a caring and professional team. — Rick and Lisa
Buying a home can be an overwhelming experience. Kudos to you folks at Agents for Home Buyers for helping me in a way that was enlightening and fun. I especially appreciate your patience, understanding and enthusiasm along with your expert advice regarding local real estate. You gave 100%, making sure that I bought the very best home. — Jahna
The agents at Agents for Home Buyers complement each other, each having strengths that make them a valuable resource.
The agents at Agents for Home Buyers complement each other, each having strengths that make them a valuable resource in purchasing a home. Their input and their dedication to their clients increased my confidence to purchase a home. If you are not sure what kind of home to purchase, they will help narrow in on the perfect home for you, based on your personal needs and tastes. This was invaluable in saving me time and energy in looking at choices. I now have a home that perfectly reflects me and my personality because they kept their client’s best interest at heart. – Sandy
Experience and Professionalism
Their knowledge of real estate considerations, legal issues, lot title, home construction, experience with this area puts you at a strong advantage over other buyers.
Go nowhere else. The team at Agents for Home Buyers is top-notch. Over the top! Their knowledge of real estate considerations, legal issues, lot title, home construction, experience with this area puts you at a strong advantage over other buyers. If you are not buying with buyer’s-only agent representation, then you are giving up substantial advantage (besides conflicts of interest, a buy/sell realtor cannot legally disclose some considerations about properties). I’ve purchased three homes with Agents for Home Buyers: House #1: During the midst of the 2015 bidding wars, they found me a house to buy that was in absolutely perfect shape and was not on the open market. No other bidders, just a simple conversation between the sellers and myself. I bought the house for only what the sellers originally paid for the house plus the cost of improvements. Bam! Paid for $50k-$60k below market value when shacks were selling like hotcakes. That house is in perfect showroom condition. House #2: Boulder foothills home; we looked and looked for over a year before finding a gem in a prime location. A4HB helped us receive a five-digit closing settlement from the sellers. I hope to live in that house until I die! House #3: Again, a totally smooth transaction for a rental house. Agents for Home Buyers arranged so I could pre-lease to new tenants before closing! No vacancy time! – Ralph
You will be supported every step of the way, and they will work with you for as long as it takes to find what you are looking for.
If you are lucky enough to find Agents for Home Buyers, don’t squander your good fortune. Choose them as your buyer’s agents. You will be hiring experience, reliability, great judgment, good company as you are shepherded around Boulder County…and a thorough and professional real estate search. You will be supported every step of the way, and they will work with you for as long as it takes to find what you are looking for. – Richard
The team at Agents for Home Buyers were wonderful during our home buying process. They were always available to ask questions and talked us through every step, so we understood exactly what we were getting into. They found a perfect home for my husband and I, the price they were able to negotiate was exactly what we needed for our budget. I highly recommend Agents for Home Buyers for anyone searching for a home. Lindsey and Norris and the rest of the team will find you a perfect home that meets your wishes and criteria! – Marlee
We would like to thank you for all the help and support you have given us throughout this long process. You are real professionals. We would be happy to recommend you to anyone. – Jennifer and Philip
Agents for Home Buyers saved us from making a nearly quarter-million-dollar mistake with a great lot in Boulder County. They put a condition in our purchase agreement requiring Boulder County Planning approval of an acceptable house plan. When Boulder County rejected our proposal, we were able to back out of the contract intact. The lot we eventually did buy is in Larimer County and requires no planner approval for our dream retirement home. The Agents for Home Buyers team were great throughout the search and deal-making process…and they helped us avoid several pitfalls we would not have seen in the deal. They really are working for you, the buyer. There was never any pressure to buy, just honest evaluations of both the houses and lots that we looked at. – Martin and Bill
We have worked with Agents for Home Buyers to purchase three homes and couldn’t be happier. I will absolutely use them again for my next purchase (may it be many years from now). The A4HB team found many good prospective homes that were tailored to what we wanted. They were very skilled at completing the transactions with amazing attention to detail. There are so many papers involved in a real estate transaction and with A4HB on my side, I always felt confident that everything was done right. If you’re looking to purchase a home, first or fortieth, I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly than Agents for Home Buyers. – Mayank
Choosing Agents for Home Buyers as our agents was one of the smartest decisions we made in buying a home. They are knowledgeable and experienced in all the local markets. We were new to home buying and asked a lot of questions. They walked us through all the details of each part of the process, taking the time to answer all our questions thoroughly and clearly. At one point, we changed what we were looking for in a home at midnight on the night before we were scheduled to look at houses. They had new homes set up for us to look at first thing the next morning. They were always available to look at a house when we found one we were interested in, no matter how many there were. And they never pushed us toward one or another, although they did wisely steer us away from a couple that weren’t great for us. They, also, referred us to a lender that saved us hundreds of dollars. Additionally, we often had our 3-year-old daughter with us. They were patient and gracious with her interruptions. And when we did put a bid on a house that we loved, they helped us write an offer that was accepted within 2 hours! We highly recommend them! – Doris
I worked with Norris to buy my first home (a condo) and was excited to work with him and his team again when my husband and I were ready to upgrade. I discovered Norris at a home buying seminar he was hosting and was struck by his honesty and genuine interest in educating people about all aspects of buying a home. The team at Agents for Home Buyers is incredibly knowledgeable and especially skilled at some of the tedious, but important, aspects of the home buying process. When we found the home we knew we wanted, they immediately started pulling comp data and helped us add language to the contract that could give us an advantage over other offers. Working through this with them helped us create an offer that secured us a contract on the property we really wanted, even though there were multiple offers. Once we found out our offer was accepted, they immediately started helping us through the rest of the process and connecting us with great people to help us through the next phases. In particular, they connected us with an amazing inspector, who was very thorough and great to work with. Then they worked through all the legal paperwork, making sure everything was in order and calling out anything that looked questionable. Buying a home in a competitive market can be really stressful but working with this team made us feel knowledgeable and confident about our decision. They really watched out for our interests and worked hard to help us find just the right place. – Susie
Norris and the team at Agents for Home Buyers have a great depth of experience in home buying which was very valuable to me. The people at Agents for Home Buyers are knowledgeable about the area and the home buying process and were persistent and thorough in searching for homes. Their help was crucial to finding and buying my home. – Louisville home buyer
Agents for Home Buyers was a dream come true to a father/daughter team looking to purchase a first condo for a grad-student in an unfamiliar real estate market. From the time they took to give us an introduction to real estate and the buyer broker concept, to quickly identifying possibilities, to patiently showing us around, and to closing the deal, the team at Agents for Home Buyers were true partners and advocates and a delight to interact with. With the graduate degree almost in hand, the daughter (and her father) now hope that wherever she lands for her new career, there is someone as great as the agents at Agents for Home Buyers to work with again! – Eleni and John
The team at Agents for Home Buyers really cares about their clients. We had very few problems in buying our house because we had Agents for Home Buyers on our side. If there was a problem, they would know at least two or three options to resolve it. We felt very comfortable with them because of their extensive knowledge of the area and the housing market. Unfortunately for Agents for Home Buyers, we will probably never need their services again since they helped us find our dream home. – Kathy and Jennifer
Going the Extra Mile
Agents for Home Buyers helped us buy our first home and the service they provided was exceptional. They stood with us and helped us through a seller’s market and got us our dream house. It’s definitely worth considering them for home sale or purchase. – Ashish
Agent for Home Buyers stand true to their name. They were of great help to us in buying our first dream home in Broomfield within a 3-month timeframe. They walked us through all the procedures and helped us understand what it meant to us. The overall experience was smooth and fun. We strongly recommend them. Thank for the outstanding service! – Greg
Agents for Home Buyers helped us search all of Boulder County. We fell in love with Longmont’s old historic district, but none of the homes on the market at the time were quite right. Undaunted, they identified about 100 homes that met our needs but weren’t on the market. They wrote to the owners and found several who were preparing to sell their homes. Three of them were great! We got the right home, in the right place, at the right price because Agents for Home Buyers went the extra mile. – Patty and Scott
The Agents for Home Buyers team did more than just unlock doors and show us properties. They provided maps, data and analyses on how different neighborhoods are more desirable than others. A great service for first time buyers! – Dan and Liz
After looking on our own for a year, we found a home in North Boulder. We called and asked Norris Minick at Agents for Home Buyers to write up an offer, but he insisted that we take an afternoon to look at other homes to make sure that we were doing the right thing. In three hours, we saw four homes that were nicer than anything we had seen in a year on our own. Months later, we closed on a great house and paid $40,000 less. The people at Agents for Home Buyers worked harder than they needed to and got a lower commission, but they found us our dream home! – Ben and Lissa
Buying a house in Boulder can be frustrating; places go for way over asking price in no time to cash buyers. The team at Agents for Home Buyers, however, helped us buy a house that wasn’t even listed for a great price in the neighborhood that we most wanted. We couldn’t be happier! They streamlined the whole process, setting up all the necessary inspections, using DocuSign to expedite, etc. All the while, they kept us very much in the loop and were extremely responsive. We would highly recommend them to anyone! – AlainaAgents for Home Buyers has helped me buy two properties over the course of seven years, and both experiences were excellent. Their combination of detailed data gathering, and directly contacting prospective sellers helped me find the perfect property in both cases. They helped me find the perfect property in a very competitive market in Boulder at a price that wouldn’t have been possible without all their extra work. – Grant
To the team at Agents for Home Buyers: We owe it all to you and your diligent efforts as our buyer brokers last winter. Unwilling to be defeated by the market, you wrote a letter directed to all homeowners in the Table Mesa area with a house meeting our qualifications. Undaunted by the poor response, you sent another letter and flushed out what became our home. If it had not been for your diligence and your honest desire to help us find the best possible home we could afford, we wouldn’t have ended up with our gorgeous house, in the neighborhood we wanted. You even saved us from bidding wars by finding a house not on the market. We truly appreciate what you did… We appreciate your listening to what we wanted in a house and helping us to maintain our standards despite the frustrating market, your daily updates of potentially suitable houses, your unflagging efforts in helping us find a suitable house, and your friendship as we searched those eight months. Mostly, we appreciate your commitment to go the extra mile. Without you, we know we never would have ended up with a house that so closely matched our dreams. We will continue to spread the word about your services, and we’ll always be thankful for your help in finding our home. – Karen
We were so fortunate to have this team helping us to find a rental property in an extremely competitive market. They did a tremendous amount of research on the trends in real estate prices over 1-, 5- and 10-year periods in different counties in Colorado. Then they did a mass mailing to various desirable neighborhoods…and got a couple of responses…that led to the property we have now. – Vicki
The team at Agents for Home Buyers were wonderful! They did a great job of sending us plenty of listings that matched our criteria. They worked with our tight schedules to make sure we saw a ton of houses from our list every time we were in town. They know the Boulder housing market very well and did an excellent job of helping us navigate. – Jaclyn
We had an amazing experience with the team at Agents for Home Buyers. They went above and beyond to help us get the home we wanted. Highly recommend them to anyone in the market for a home. – Cory
The team at Agents for Home Buyers were excellent to work with. From now on, we will look to their expertise and guidance in home buying. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and anticipate all contingencies, needs, and wants. Plus, no one knows Boulder County like a native, truly! – Derek
Norris and his team at Agents for Home Buyers were incredible brokers to work with. They were patient and incredibly knowledgeable about listings throughout Boulder County. We are in a house that we love solely due to Agents for Home Buyers’ hard work and dedication. You see, our house never went on the market publicly, instead, Agents for Home Buyers knew about the possibility because of a mailing they had sent to residents inquiring about their interest in selling in the near future. The owners of our home replied and said they may be interested in selling. Norris took us over to have a look and we loved it. It was a very pleasant experience because we didn’t have to compete with other bids on the open market. We all came to agreement on price and timing and all in all, everyone won out and saved money, too. Agents for Home Buyers pioneered this concept – and it is one that buyers and sellers alike really appreciate. I would recommend working with Agents for Home Buyers to any friend or family member in the market. They are objective but tell you what you need to know. They are quite knowledgeable on what to think about when buying a home. Thanks again to the team at Agents for Home Buyers for all your help. We remain happily in Longmont. – Brooke and Gregg
We just wanted to thank you for all your help in getting our house search started. As you will recall, we met you through one of your seminars. Since we were interested in buying in Denver, you referred us to another agent who served as our buyer broker. Even though you did not handle our account yourself, you generated the initial MLS listings we used to scope out the area and discover neighborhoods we liked. As a result of your efforts, we were able to limit our search and finally find a home. We appreciate your extra effort on our behalf and wish you all the best. – Michelle and Derek
