So, I decided to sell my house, pack up, and move myself and my dogs from Texas to Colorado Springs. Prior to making the move I visited the city a few times and met with Raquel to look and learn about the The Springs and browse potential homes. Her warmth and what can best be described as utter charm won me over immediately! She knew exactly what a single girl like me needed after I gave her a rather short list of my likes/dislikes and lifestyle. She happily drove me all over town and was always available to answer all of my questions.  Once I returned home, she sent me lists of new-to-market houses on a daily basis and even took videos of the ones that drew my interest. 

The best part? She has the patience of Job. She held my hand through the unavoidably stressful loan process and I’ll admit to being a bit of an emotional mess. Raquel, however, remained as cool and as cheery as a cucumber through the entire process. Her level of knowledge about the ever changing real estate market is also second to none. 

I’d like to pretend she’s all mine but, unfortunately, she doesn’t just belong to me. I will gladly share her and The Platinum Group realtors with anyone looking to purchase a home. You won’t find anyone better.

I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with Raquel during my recent home buying endeavor. This was my first home purchase, so  I was apprehensive about all of the unknowns and trying to enter such a hot market. From our very first conversation, Raquel made me feel at ease and confident in her ability to help me find a home in a very short timeline as I was moving back to Colorado from out of state and had only 4 days for a house hunting trip. At the time I was looking, Colorado Springs was very much a seller’s market where many properties were going under contract within 2 or 3 days and selling for several thousand over asking price. Even with these hurdles, Raquel was confident that she would be able to help me find something. Although I lost the first property I put an offer in for because I wasn’t willing to continue a bidding war, Raquel helped me find an absolutely incredible home and worked with the seller to ensure I paid a fair price. There is no way for me to truly express my gratitude to Raquel and to thank her for her tireless efforts to help me find my perfect first home. She was incredibly attentive to my needs, very responsive, explained things in a way I could understand, and I felt that she truly cared about me as a person as well as a client. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. She is an incredible agent and I trust that she will deliver the same level of service to anyone who is fortunate enough to work with her.
