“Just WOW! I have been in lending for 30 years & handle a lot of purchase transactions nationwide, which means I deal with realtors daily. Karen is one of the best I have ever worked with. When you explain what you are looking for, she listens. When you give her a price range, she is mindful of it & doesn’t go to the top end of the range instantly. She asks questions to help find what you are looking for and keeps in touch without being pushy (which is amazing!!) She sent us listings for a couple weeks and we let her know what we did and didn’t like. She absolutely nailed everything! She is professional & patient. She took us to see 20+ houses over a 2-day period (no, this is not normal, we flew in from out of state for the express purpose of house hunting) and by the end of the two days we were under contract in a very competitive market. She was there every step of the way, and we couldn’t be more pleased. I have fewer than 10 agents I would recommend nationwide. She is on that list.”

“Our home search lasted a better part of a year and covered over 60 miles north-to-south across the Front Range, where we looked at homes in over 10 different cities. As our target location, budget, and even what we were looking for in a house changed, Karen stayed consistently positive and kept providing us promising properties to look at and put offers in on. She was a pleasure to work with and was instrumental in finding the eventual home that we purchased, which was exactly what we were looking for. Thank you Karen!”

“Karen took the stress out of selling our house and made it smooth and easy. From valuation to staging and listing she was on top it throughout. Always there with great advice and listened carefully to our concerns. I highly recommend her!”

“I truly had the best experience working with Karen. As a first time home buyer I had a lot of questions and she was always very kind, patient and thorough with me. She helped me get the first house I put an offer in on, which is unheard of in this market and was all due to her knowledge of the area and space.”

“Karen is amazing. We were picky buyers in a VERY competitive market (Summer 2021), and we put in two offers total and could have had either house. We ended up with the second house. We did not put in the highest offer, but because she knew how to make it attractive, it was accepted over the other offer. We love our new house, and we’re so grateful for Karen’s help.”

“When everyone else we know said it was “too wild of a market” Karen dove right in as our fearless leader, guiding our way through wonderful options & found us an amazing home.
And as first time buyers we couldn’t be more grateful for such a knowledgeable, friendly & resourceful realtor.”

“If clients keep coming back and referring their best friends, doesn’t that indicate superior service and a great experience? That’s what happens with Ande! When Ande helped us buy our home she figured out what we wanted, an old home with an updated kitchen, instead of what we said, a newer home, and she negotiated through complications of unstandard do-it-yourself remodeling to reduce the price significantly. Since she works with starter homes to multi-million dollar deals, Ande can offer the hand-holding first time buyers need or the sophistication required by investors. She’s that good. Ande, with her years of industry experience, great contacts, and super people skills is a pillar of calm, resolve, creativity, and, when necessary, fast action, to get the best deal whether her client be a buyer or seller. You will win with Ande Rice and I recommend her without reservation.”

“I’ve known Ande Rice for almost 20 years and have bought and sold 3 homes with her. She is not only extremely experienced and professional, she is so much fun to house hunt with! Her long career in the Boulder area makes her a calm, cool, confident negotiator and she can spot a great deal and a quality house immediately, saving lots of time looking at not-quite-right houses. She has the best people on her side, from plumbers to inspectors, HVAC experts, mold experts, and more who have taught us so much and saved us so much money over the years. Ande listens to her clients and works hard to find the perfect fit for them. At the same time, she is very honest in her opinion. Our last (and possibly forever) house we never would have bought if she hadn’t urged us so strongly and it was probably the best move, both for our family’s happiness and financially, that we have ever made. I have recommended Ande to at least a dozen people and every one of them has been thrilled with her.”

“When we bought our house, Ande was amazing. She was attentive to our needs and incredibly knowledgeable about our neighborhood and options. We always recommend Ande to our friends and family. Everyone that worked with Ande had a great experience and ended up in a great house or condo.”

“Ande is exactly who you want as your advocate whether buying or selling. I recently sold a duplex in Denver and I appreciated her clear, straightforward, honest and reliable character. Ande is a lovely woman of integrity.”

“Ande has a deep and longterm knowledge of all of the towns in Boulder County, where she has worked as a realtor for over the past twenty years. Her capacity for listening to what I needed, in both selling and then buying my next home, made her a pleasure to work with as she handled so many details I could never have attended to on my own. She was a formidable advocate for my interests. Apart from her consummate professionalism, backed by decades of experience, she is truly a wonderful person that you will enjoy getting to know throughout your real estate transactions. I have lived happily in the home she found for me ten years ago, and I enthusiastically recommend her for any of your real estate needs.”

“Ande was a pleasure to work with. She handled both the sale of our condominium and the search and purchase of our first single family home. Our condo was under contract in less than 5 days and sold for a great price. We then found the perfect home to buy shortly after. My wife and I spoke to her almost daily. She was very knowledgeable, patient and most importantly proactive in finding a buyer and searching for the new home to fit our needs and budget. The entire process went smoothly thanks to her expertise. She treated us like family.”

“Working with Ande was a blessing. From day one I could tell that I made the right choice by working with her. If it’d not been for Ande’s vast understanding of the marketplace I feel I would have gotten into a property that wasn’t right for me. In my search, she listened to what I was looking for and I never felt like my time was wasted when we went out to look at potential properties. Her communication, honesty, and personality alleviated many of the stresses that come with the Boulder housing market. She was there for me through the entire process of the purchase and has been keeping in touch after closing. There’s no doubt in my mind that she truly cares and is passionate about her career.”

“Ande helped me sell my condo and find the most beautiful home. Ande showed me, houses, condos, and townhouses. The homes were not only at my budget, but some were below and some were above. She showed me a full spectrum of options and was able to also give me information about neigborhoods new to me, and trails/activities near by.

Ande knows her local market, but is also willing to research and travel beyond just Boulder County. Working with Ande was like working with a friend. In fact, she often becomes friends with the people she works with because she loves what she does.

Ande was consistently available and always met me with a smile. I don’t know how she does it! It is a pleasure to work with Ande, and I recommend her to everyone!”

“Ande Rice has assisted me in the buying and selling of two properties she very professional and actually, a lot of fun to work with...I would highly recommend her.”

“I would highly recommend Ande Rice for all of your real estate needs. I recently bought a condo and Ande went above and beyond. She was readily available to answer any question I had, went with me to look at various places, and listened to what I wanted. In the end, I am thrilled with the condo I bought and so glad that Ande was by my side.”

“Hurrah for Ande!! You have exceeded all expectations in your hard work and diligence in finding me a house. A big thank you for providing me with all the necessary information to settle in and I appreciate your knowledge of Boulder and the surrounding areas.”

“I have worked with Ande on 3 home purchases and one sale, so I have had a lot of experience with her over the past 12 years! I can’t recommend her enough. She is helpful, knowledgable and somehow always available, yet completely no-pressure. She is always willing to go see a property for the sake of research, even if it’s clear you won’t be making an offer. She never makes you feel like you’re wasting her time. For a while we thought we wanted to buy a mountain cabin and she trekked with us all the way up 4th of July road to show us something, even though it was mostly a pipe dream. And when it comes time to make an offer, she is a tough negotiator! She also knows everyone in the business and is oh so familiar with the Boulder market, which is not easy to negotiate these days. I’ve recommended her to 3 friends and they’ve all been happy as well. Buying a home is a huge deal, no matter what your budget; why would you risk working with someone who isn’t a total pro?”

“Ande Rice was terrific! She was readily available to us whenever we wanted to look at homes, often on very short notice. We looked in Boulder for over 8 months and she was extremely patient, had great ideas and advice. We kept looking and found our dream house. We couldn’t be happier! Thanks Ande!”

“My husband and I have worked over the last ten years with Ande in Boulder on two purchases. We adore her. From the first time we met her from a recommendation from a friend, we were impressed with her ability to work with my husband and my different styles. Most importantly she listens and delivers. I can’t tell you the number of times she has jumped at our every request, which is key in the hot Boulder market to move fast and know the ins and outs of getting your clients what they want. Ande makes a stressful process fun and enjoyable as it should be in purchasing a place called home. Two houses in 10 years and I always find myself wanting to find another reason to work with Ande and we love our house too much!”

“I am extremely pleased to recommend your services. It’s obvious we liked your work because we used you twice within a six month period. There are several things that were exceptional. First, your approach to showing the properties generated multiple offers within a very short time, so we could choose between them. Second, you showed us a short cut way to evaluate the offers that greatly reduced our stress and the time to decide. And third, and to me most important, you have the ability to quickly and effectively work through the unplanned glitches that always seem to come up. As a result we sold both properties for above asking price and being on the market for less than five days. Thank you, Ande.”

“Ande went way above the call of duty to ensure our sale went through. We had a tricky sale since the property had a lot of issues after the 2013 flood. Ande stood the course through that and other challenges. I was impressed by her patience and calm demeanor. Thank you, thank you!”

“I have worked with Ande Rice on 4 different buying selling transactions over 15 years in Boulder County. Ande brings an exceptional professionalism to every deal, wise insights into the market value and future market value, and is the realtor that many buyers choose to work with.

On top of a lot of experience, Ande brings calmness to what is usually a chaotic stressful situation. (moving, agreeing with a spouse, major financial transactions). Ande Rice understands when to give sage insight, and when you let you ponder over something. More than anything, she will not let you buy a house that isn’t right for you. She isn’t in for the sale, as much as return, long term happy, referring clients.”

“We have used Ande for both buying and selling our homes. She does a wonderful job with both. Her knowledge of the area was outstanding. She was very flexible, a good listener and efficient. We always feel that she has our backs, and is always working for us!”

“I would like to thank Ande for her assistance and hand holding during the sale of my home and search for a new one. I would not have been able to get through the process with out her help, encouragement and support. A VERY BIG thank you.”

“We bought several condos with Ande’s help. She is quick and knows the market very well. Organized showings for our timeline in a day. Friendly and professional.”

“We wanted to thank you for helping us find our new home! We absolutely love it and are so grateful for your positive and energetic advice and expertise. You guided us through this process with ease, held the center then things got wonky. We truly enjoyed working with you!”
