Elizabeth Martinez

Whether working with a first-time homebuyer, a seller looking to buy up or down, or an investor, Elizabeth Martinez offers a deep knowledge of Denver’s market, insight into the nitty-gritty of real estate transactions, and a level of personal connection and commitment that her clients truly cherish. For Elizabeth, Denver real estate is the family business: she originally obtained her license in order to participate “on the side” in her family’s 40-year-old real estate investment company. That side business quickly became Elizabeth’s passion, and has proven an excellent fit given her social personality and love of local history. Elizabeth takes great satisfaction in all the preparation that goes into listing a home so that it can be effectively marketed: “I enjoy finding out what makes a home unique, and why you can get certain prices in certain areas. The history we have here in the area is fascinating, and it really affects the way we live in our neighborhoods.” Her knowledge of neighborhoods in metro Denver is extensive, stretching from Arvada to Aurora, from Denver’s Highlands to Highlands Ranch, and beyond. Elizabeth states that in showing homes to buyers, “sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find the perfect match of home and buyer. But when it happens: it is truly satisfying.” It’s a moment she relishes, and she’s not stingy about taking the time to make it happen. But today’s market isn’t easy, and complicated contingencies are known to crop up. Here’s where Elizabeth’s teaching background comes in handy: she works hard to explain each step of the real estate transaction to her clients. With Elizabeth on your side, you’ll learn what you need to know to get to closing as smoothly and efficiently as possible. Elizabeth lives with her husband and two daughters in Northwest Denver, where she is actively involved in the neighborhood schools, as well as in several community organizations, in one of which she offers enthusiastic welcome to new members of her local parenting resource group.
