She and her team did a fabulous job staging and photographing the house for listing. I was extremely impressed with the photos; I’ve seen so many real estate photos that just don’t show the property very well, but ours were excellent. Denáe is very efficient and professional, and was a joy to work with. Anytime we had questions, she was quick to respond. Her advice about prepping the house for listing was spot on, and we received an offer on the house within 4 days of listing! Thank you Denáe and House Hunters!”

“Denae was fantastic to work with. I recently had to sell my mother-in-law's home and have never had to go through this process alone. Denae held my hand from beginning to end. She had so much patience throughout the entire process. Her knowledge of buying/selling a property is outstanding. She was super responsive when I reached out, she explained every document in a way that I could easily understand what I was signing, and was overall a true delight to work with. She had the listing live for a day and a half before we had a contract on the home. The first contract ended up being the buyers and we closed in a short 24 days. We hit a couple of bumps throughout the inspection phase, but Denae kept honest communication between me and the sellers so we could agree on everything needing to be done before closing. I cannot thank you enough, Denae. You were truly wonderful to work with!”

“I've probably rewritten this review five times now, there's so much that I want to say, however words will never be able to describe the amazing experience we had with Denae. She worked with us for over 18 months on our journey not only to sell our first home but buy our second. She recommended an amazing loan agent that helped us maximize our money. She was our rock through the hardest parts of preparing our home to sale, from the packing, to the updates, to the last push of putting our house live. She is a master at communicating, she is a natural at design and staging, she is the team member you want on your side to negotiate and get things done. We were able to list our house and accept an offer over asking within 48 hours of listing, as well as find our dream house within the same time frame. We did a double closing within 26 days with the best outcome we could have expected. Hands down would recommend Denae to anyone looking to sell or buy their homes. She is so determined, knowledgeable, and invested. We could not have asked for anyone better to be on our team.”

“I don’t have enough words to appreciate how it was to buy our first home with Denae, but I will try: To begin with when we decided we wanted to hire her to help us she made the process beautifully simple, she did not spam us with emails or insisted we signed the contract right away, from the beginning she worked on our own pace. We told her what we were looking for and she delivered, the knowledge of the best properties in COS and she constantly guide us away from tricky properties, with our best interest at heart. The customer service experience I would say was the BEST I ever experienced, she never took more than 5 minutes to respond one of our late questions, if she didn’t know the answer she made it her priority to find out and answered right away, displaying such capacity and professionalism that I would look at my fiancé every time and tell him “aren’t you happy we went with Denae?!” Just before I wrote this post he asked me to make sure I made it STELLAR because, I quote “Is the least we can do for her!” She would organize us showings in a moments notice, always prompt to make it Convenient for our scattered free time. We got offers rejected along the way as it happens, and we would back up and re-group and instead of letting our moral down she would give us space and keep bringing more awesome places to the table! We closed last month and I have been living in a dream house, that cost us at least $25000 less than we should have payed, all because we did it expedited with her tireless help. And the $1000 closing gift? Pfff IT WENT A LONG WAY PEOPLE! Thank you Denae, eternal thanks! I hope everyone gets o have an experience like this with a talented, beautiful and kind human like you, they deserve it!”

“Denae was amazing during the entire experience. This is my first time buying a home and she was always there when I had questions. She was very organized and was able to help me get everything done with plenty of time to fix anything that was needed. She had a vast knowledge of what to look out for and how to help. She made the very stressful experience of buying a home much more manageable. I would recommend her to my family and friends and I will defiantly acquire her assistance in the future.”

“We have worked with Denae for a couple years now. Every listing she pours her heart and soul into. Having it professionally cleaned, staged, and photographed! Ensuring the absolute best outcome for all transactions. Her communication is top notch and she will go the extra mile in everything she does. Hands down Denae is one of my favorite realtors to work with in Colorado Springs”

“Denae was our Realtor for the sale of our home and the purchase of our new property. She was exemplary professional throughout the whole process which started in June and was finally completed in October of this year. During those 5 months she stayed focused on getting our deals done while making sure we were taken care of even helping us find proffesional movers to help move and insuring that we were comfortable the entire time.She went out of her way to help us with every aspect of the process. Denae was not only our realtor, but she is a friend for life, any one buying or selling a home would be very lucky to have her in their corner”.”

“We have so much to share about our experience with Denae Howell. A year ago, she helped us sell our home when we decided to relocate to New York. The process was seamless—Denae handled every detail and gave us peace of mind from start to finish. Fast forward 10 months, and our journey began in our quest to move back home to Colorado. We quickly realized how much we had missed it—and we knew without a doubt that Denae was the only person we trusted to help us find a new home. We flew in for a whirlwind weekend of house hunting, seeing 18 homes in just a day and a half. We thought we had found “the one” and went under contract, only to discover HOA restrictions that didn’t fit our needs. Denae didn’t miss a beat. On our second round of house hunting, we found the perfect home for us. Her deep knowledge and expertise, paired with her warmth, sincerity, and unwavering positivity, made all the difference. A year in our lives from beginning to end, was with Denae by our side, guiding and supporting us the entire time. We truly cannot imagine going through this full-circle journey without her. Words fall short in expressing the appreciation and gratitude we feel for Denae Howell.”

“Many thanks to Denáe Howell for her foresight, knowledge, perseverance, kindness, and brilliance in guiding us through the sale of our home. We had a flawless dream of a sale thanks to her. To say that we highly recommend Denae is an understatement. ”

“Selling a home can be stressful, especially from another state, but working with Denáe made the entire process smooth, efficient, and even enjoyable (loved planning over coffee dates). As both a trusted friend and a dedicated professional, she brought a perfect balance of personal care and expert guidance. From the first conversation (where she brought a booklet of info!) to the final closing, Denáe was always available, incredibly knowledgeable, and proactive in every step. She provided honest advice, helped me stage and price the home strategically, and negotiated skillfully to get me a great deal. What stood out most was her genuine commitment - not just to the sale, but to making sure I felt supported and informed throughout. It's rare to find someone who can wear both the friend and professional hat so gracefully. I'm beyond grateful and would recommend Denáe to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You won't find a better advocate or a more caring partner in the process ”

“I would absolutely recommend Denáe to anyone looking to purchase a home—she is truly a rockstar! There were many moments when we felt exhausted or overwhelmed, and she always reminded us that “when it was right, it would feel easy.” Denáe was incredibly dedicated to helping us find the perfect place. She had meticulously planned five showings in a single day, and was ready to meet us when we had to cancel everything due to an emergency room visit that turned into a six-day whirlwind. Little did we know that our “right” would come just minutes after our 7-month-old underwent emergency surgery. I think my fiancé would agree that the easiest part of that weekend was going under contract for our home. Within minutes of the home hitting the market, Denáe was speaking with the seller’s agent—beating out FOURTY other calls. She convinced the sellers agent to view the home on our behalf while we were out of town and ended up being the only person to see it in person. On a beautiful Friday night, she dropped everything to FaceTime us and walk us through every detail. We were under contract within hours. Throughout the entire process, she was a true go-getter—tirelessly advocating for us and making things happen even in the most chaotic moments. She was also patient, understanding, and full of grace during some of our most stressful times. We couldn’t have asked for a better advocate and partner. ”

“I honestly can’t thank Denáe enough for everything she did in selling my home, a place I had lived in for 9 years. Not only is she a dear friend, but she treated my home with such care, respect, and attention to detail that it felt like she was selling her own. From the very start, she didn’t just see it as a house - she saw the memories, the stories, and the love that filled every room. Her deep understanding of the market was evident, but it was her genuine connection to the home and myself that made all the difference. She guided me every step of the way, offering thoughtful advice, staging tips, and ensuring everything was perfectly in place to make the home shine. It wasn’t just about getting the best price; it was about finding the right buyers who would appreciate the warmth and character that made this place special. I am so grateful for her incredible professionalism, kindness, and patience throughout the entire process. She made what could have been a difficult experience feel personal and meaningful, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thank you, Denáe, for treating my home - and me - with so much care. You went above and beyond, and I’ll forever be grateful! ”

“As a first-time homebuyer using a VA loan, working with Denae was a total game-changer. From day one, she was a powerhouse of knowledge —guiding me with clear, honest advice and making each decision feel confident and informed. When doubts crept in, Denae was my calm in the storm, offering steady reassurance and negotiating like a pro to get me the best possible outcome. Thanks to her relentless dedication and savvy expertise, I secured my home for $23,000 under asking, even after a low VA appraisal. She negotiated reduced earnest money, got my closing costs completely covered, and—get this—I even walked away with cash back after signing. No hidden stress. No last-minute surprises. Just a smooth, 30-day closing and the keys to a new chapter in my life. Denae didn’t just help me buy a house—she empowered me to become a homeowner, start to finish. I couldn’t have asked for a better advocate.”

“I couldn’t be happier working with Derra. She walked me through the entire new construction process which was invaluable. I would recommend her without hesitation and if I could give more than 5 stars I would! ”

“We enjoyed working with Jerry and Derra to sell our home and build a new home. They know their stuff and made everything easy. ”

“As first time home buyers, Jerry made the process of buying our home comfortable and stress free. We recommend him to literally everyone we know that is even thinking of anything related to houses. ”

“Best home buying experience ever! Smooth and professional, we felt as if we were treated like family. ”

“Jerry is the best realtor in the Springs! He helped us buy our first home and then turned around two years later to help us sell it for a major profit. He actually cares and does everything with your best interest in mind. ”

“I absolutely recommend House Hunters and Jerry with navigating the process of buying and selling a home in the fast Colorado market. I was overwhelmed with his kindness, honesty and attention he gave to our family. ”
