Ricky Schoonover - REALTOR - www.DenverHomesMarket.com

Ricky was more than helpful every step of the process. He did a great job walking us through the home search and home buying experiences and we would highly recommend him to others! We really value his efficient communication during the process and in particular he did a really good job of quickly learning what our priorities were in a home and helped us to adjust our search accordingly. He truly cares about helping his clients find their homes and that passion for his job certainly shines through.

Ricky Shoonover is one of the Best Real estate agents I have ever worked with! We had to sell my Parent's home of 40 years after they passed away. Ricky and his crew came in and made it tremendously beautiful within 1 week, giving me hope that once it was complete it would be amazing. He made the entire process of selling a home very positive, upfront, no nonsense. He is one of those lucky people to be in a Job that he loves, meaning he cares about everyone he is in contact with to make it a smooth transition, including his crew. It was truly amazing to work with you Ricky. Thank you. You will be the only person I contact for Buying or selling a home. Sincerely, The Garman's

This review speaks to Ricky Schoonover from one Realtor to another. Representing the Seller in this transaction, Ricky was professional and courteous with me even during the height of negotiations. When I needed information for my Buyer client, Ricky was able obtain answers quickly. It was a pleasure to work with him.

I wish I could give Ricky more than 5 stars! Ricky Schoonover is positively stellar at what he does, and Id love to share some of the reasons why I will never use anyone else for my future real estate transactions. I realize this is a very long post, I actually wanted to write even more LOL. We had been considering selling our home for quite some time, but for a variety of reasons never moved forward or selected an agent. And although we loved our home, there were significant challenges to overcome & cosmetic improvements to make prior to putting it up for sale. I had recently become a casual listener of Rickys podcast Denver Homes Market Report, and on a whim reached out to him through his website but soon forgot about it. A few days later he stealthily dropped off a home market assessment bound inside a beautiful notebook, and proceeded to change everything. He was unfazed when we shared the weighty challenges we faced (which included foundation issues that had to be resolved), our long list of must-haves for our next home, and that selling our home was contingent on having enough remaining funds to improve our current living situation in a new home. From our first meeting he was all-in, and throughout proved his commitment without question. We never felt pressured and he was always positive. From beginning to end he maintained his professionalism while remaining friendly and was encouraging while staying forthright and honest. The two of us never realized the strategy & planning required to be successful in buying/selling real estate, but Rickys skill at both exposed how deficient our past Brokers or Broker Associates were, and how little they did to protect us or have our best interest in mind. They simply could not compare. Following is just a partial list that demonstrates Rickys superior service and his willingness and desire to help. He works with just a few clients at a time -- no more than four -- so he can devote his time and attention to your needs. He showed up time after time to help us move heavy furniture and other items, even helping us make trips to our storage unit as we prepared to sell. He lent his expertise and vast knowledge as we prepared inside and outside our home for the photos. He kept in contact with us, guiding us, helping us, supporting us, without being overly intrusive. For every step during the sale of our home and buying the new one, we had great struggles to overcome. Most challenges came to light in layers, like the peeling of an onion. But every time, Ricky remained positive and always had a plan as well as a backup plan (and sometimes a backup backup plan!) to keep us moving forward. His negotiation and strategic planning skills paid off for us, literally. Even after the sale of our old home and purchase of our new home, Ricky continues to check in to see how things are & give us encouragement (our new home is undergoing some remodeling and updates). When you choose to work with Ricky you also receive some unique and noteworthy benefits through Mode Real Estate: Your homes marketing materials including professional photos, a full Matterport virtual tour, virtual and printed marketing brochures and all other advertising are included without any cost to you. This is huge! Personalized, supportive, professional service from day one and beyond. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING RICKY!

We will never use anyone else except Ricky Schoonover for any future real estate transactions. And I feel quite fortunate to be able to share some of the reasons why he is simply unparalleled at what he does. When we first met Ricky brought us a lovely notebook with a market assessment of our house. We entertained the idea of selling our home but had not selected an agent. On a whim, my spouse reached out to Ricky through his website. A few days later he stopped by and changed our lives. With his zero-pressure approach and incredibly positive outlook, Ricky helped us visualize a future of successfully selling our and buying our homes. We loved our home but we shared the issues we had to resolve, and some significant ones at that. But Ricky didn't bat an eye. From day one he began proving his commitment without question. Every step of the way he was entirely professional, friendly, and encouraging yet always forthright and honest. He allowed us to make and follow through on some of our poorer decisions and helped us find solutions when we were stumped or frustrated. He was adept at handling every aspect of the selling and buying process while protecting our interests, advocating for us, alerting us to potential problems, never losing sight of our goals. Before Ricky, we never realized the chess-plating skills required to be a successful agent. When we felt overwhelmed he became our biggest ally, cheerleader and counselor. As we worked with Ricky, we both realized how much our past Brokers or Broker Associates simply could not compare. He proved over and over how much he is truly an all-star, unparalleled at what he does. If youre looking for details as proof of a ten-star review, following is just a fraction of Ricky's exceptional service: He remained positive throughout the entire process, even when things got difficult or challenging. When two lawn services canceled on us at the last minute, he showed up before our photo session to mow and trim our lawn because he knew we were overwhelmed and needed a hand. He offered to help with whatever we needed countless times, for example repairing/cleaning our wood floors. He made sure we stayed focused on our listed goals, including wants/needs when we searched for our new home, and helped guide us along the way so we didn't waste our time looking at homes that likely would not work for us. He has EXCELLENT tips for presenting your home so it shows beautifully. Instead of camouflaging or misrepresenting flaws of an older home, he focused on the positive aspects that he knew would help buyers see what our home had to offer. When it seemed like we would never find a suitable home before we had to be out of our old home, and we'd never be able to outbid others shopping in the same market, his offensive strategy ended up winning the day for us. He reached out to the agent of a home we had previously looked at just to put out feelers. This agent reached back out the next day, and this ended up being the home we bought! The day we closed on the sale of our house Ricky provided a wonderful celebration at Mode Realty with champagne and donuts to congratulate us! While numerous ongoing updates are occurring at our new home, Ricky continues to check in, giving encouragement and even stopping by to see the progress. True to form, he continues to help us by encouraging our contractors to keep things moving forward whenever the project is in danger of losing steam. I must also mention a few of the other unique and wonderful benefits that clients receive when choosing Ricky and Mode RE: Your homes marketing materials include professional photos, a full Matterport virtual tour, virtual and printed marketing brochures and all other advertising are included without any cost to you. This is huge! Personalized, supportive, professional service from day one and beyond.
