Chad St. Onge, ReMax of Boulder

Throughout the intense process of listing our unique home Chad was professional, proactive, and ready with half a dozen ideas for any question we may have had. On top of that his attitude was always upbeat, and we thoroughly enjoyed all of our communications during the entire experience of listing and selling our home.From the neatly prepared market comparison he presented us with during our first meeting, to his expert team that helped us stage/arrange/fix-up the house to ready it for market, to negotiations with potential buyers, every detail was handled with ease and we felt like he had our back the whole time. The marketing package that was prepared was second to none, and we generally felt pampered by the whole experience. A true professional, and excellent communicator.When the buyers did come, Chad was able to negotiate the best possible deal for us and I truly would want nobody else handling the delicate details of offers, counter offers, and contracts. Chad's expertise of the Boulder mountain market in particular suited our needs perfectly. Anything that could have been a roadblock in the process was spotted and fixed before it became a problem. I would hate to have to move somewhere where Chad could not represent us. He is the only realtor we will ever work with again!

We initially contacted Chad over the holidays to assist with our interstate move to Boulder, a town we had not yet visited. Upon our first visit, we met with him and his assistant Laura to go over our initial desires and what we were looking for. He provided a regional map with specific directions for various properties in different locales for us to explore and get a feel for the area so we could better identify what was most important to us and narrow down our options. What we didn't realize at the time (although he undoubtedly did) was that our own criteria would be subject to change, and as in the coming weeks we went back and forth about this characteristic or that with various trips back to Colorado. Chad and his team offered helpful assistance, tours of various properties in which we were interested, and simply and patiently helped guide us along the path to homeownership. We put in an offer on a property sight unseen, based on Chad's and his team's photos and videos and his personal assessment of it. He strategically translated our desires into an offer that was ultimately accepted within a few hours, and he met us at the property a few days later to discuss various characteristics of the property, how we should approach the transition, and brought up items to consider we would not have thought of on our own. We closed on the property very quickly and were able to do everything remotely via web and phone. In context of any home buying experience, Chad did everything necessary (and much beyond what was necessary) to ensure a seamless and as stress-free as possible, transition to Boulder homeownership for us. We will absolutely be picking Chad and his friendly, talented, and experienced team for our next home purchase and recommend him wholeheartedly and without reservation.

I've dealt with lots of different Real Estate agents over the years, and Chad is by far the best agent I've ever dealt with. Thanks to Chad, this was one of the most pleasant property purchasing experiences I've ever had (and I think I've been involved in more than the average number.) I was looking for a house for my son that could also serve as a rental in Boulder. Chad first supplied us with a daily update of the current houses on the market. At the time, the average house in Boulder was going from listing to offer in about 7 days. So everything had to be done promptly. Thanks to the listings, plus knowing what we were looking for, we found a house to make an offer on almost immediately. The house was overpriced, and Chad walked us through the comparable to come up with a reasonable offer. Chad used the latest tools to step us through this process, and explained step, and everything that we would need to do to both me (I already had a good idea of this part), and my son, who learned a ton. We eventually settled on a final price with a contingency dependent on an inspection. Chad really knew his stuff, and offered brilliant suggestions for this phase, and in the end, I felt we got an excellent deal. But Chad didn't stop there. He went out of his way to be sure the lawn was taken care of, that all the inspections were properly done, that the house got a final cleaning. Even met us to be sure we got the keys as soon as possible after the closing, which was handled efficiently and without far fewer hassles than I've ever had when buying property. I can tell you that Chad is just great, and when the time comes to sell or find other Boulder property, there is no question who I will call.

My fiancée and I decided to move from the East Coast to experience the "good life." Our first exploratory trip was to Boulder. Chad very patiently showed us all of the options in homes, neighbor hoods, and lifestyles that were available both in and outside of town. He took copious notes and responded to both of our needs. After that first trip we decided that Boulder was the place for us. Throughout multiple follow-on trips Chad showed us many more homes. We discussed each one and strategized regarding next steps. At the end of the day we found an incredible home at a good value that met both my need to be up in the mountains and in nature, as well as my fiancée?s need to be in town and part of a community. We couldn't have made the leap to move out to Boulder without Chad's patience and guidance. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who is searching in the Boulder area: especially those from out of town who are not familiar with the area.
