Get Help Moving & Relocating
If you are relocating, it’s important to make an informed decision on where to purchase a home. When moving to an unfamiliar area, you will have quite a bit to consider. Buying a home is a big decision and it’s best to be educated before you sign on the dotted line.
When shopping for a home in a new community, you should look beyond the house itself. Every neighborhood has a unique personality, and the only way to get a true feeling for any community is to work with a real estate agent who is extremely knowledgeable about the area. An informed agent can provide invaluable insight that you might otherwise overlook.
My Douglas County relocation information will help you make an informed decision on areas to live that will be close to where you want to be. You will get useful information that will help you choose where to live, which schools are best for your family, proximity of hospitals, and different subdivisions all over the local area.
I have many different reports and data, such as anticipated vehicle traffic over the next few years, inventory levels, recent sales in different categories ranging from town homes & condominiums to luxury homes.
Location, Location, Location
Ask anyone who understands real estate, and they will tell you that property value is always based on location, location, location. This can be true to a certain extent. However, just as important as location is that the property provides you with the best possible lifestyle for you and your family.
A Few of My Client Reviews
BBB Review on October 15, 2021
Jim is a highly skilled and knowledgeable real estate agent who has his clients best interest in mind throughout the whole transaction.
BBB Review on October 11, 2021
I met Jim through a trusted friend. I needed a solid real estate agent for a property I was acquiring for the purpose of remodeling and reselling. I normally acquire properties in Denver proper so this property being located in Littleton gave me some pause. Jim and I walked the property and discussed the neighborhood, surrounding area features and benefits, as well as the concerns I had. We also discussed the target market, design themes, floor plan modification and the all important, price point. I believe in working with higher numbers with respect to remodeling, and lower numbers with respect to sale price. Once the remodel was done Jim came in and realized the level of work we did and how to get the best return on the investment. Jim targeted a new price point, $200,000.00 above what I was considering. Please understand my price point was going to be the highest selling price in the neighborhood development, therefore Jim’s suggested asking price was higher by the $200,000.00. He sold it for $150,000.00 over the price I was expecting. I cannot say enough about his knowledge, professionalism, marketing campaign and ability to guide buyer’s real estate agent through the process. He kept his eye on the goal and did not waiver one bit. I am grateful for the referral I got which was Jim Garcia. Jim gets it and will get it done for you!

Jim is a fantastic realtor and absolutely the guy you want working for you! Jim sold our house for 20k over asking and negotiated a leaseback so we had time to find our dream home and still only move once. When it was time to buy, Jim’s knowledge of the local market was absolutely spot on. He wrote fantastic offers that gave us the best chance at winning a bidding war while also preventing us from over paying. We highly recommend Jim as he is the best of the best!

I can’t put into words what a great experience we had working with Jim. From the first conversation to the last Jim was extremely professional and informative. If you are looking for an expert to sell your home in Castle Rock, Jim is your realtor. I feel he went the extra mile time and time again until the transaction was complete. An overall awesome experience!! Thank you Jim!
BBB Review on April 29, 2021
Jim’s overall level of service was absolutely outstanding. His thorough knowledge of every aspect of both the buying and selling side of real estate is admirable. He at all times kept our best interest his #1 priority! He marketed our house so effectively it resulted in us receiving offers significantly above our asking price…And we were already priced aggressively. Jim has an excellent moral compass, coupled with outstanding knowledge of the marketplace. He managed our expectations exceptionally well through every step of the process. I literally can’t find enough words to express how pleased and grateful we are to have Jim as our agent! With zero reservations I would recommend Jim to anyone considering buying and or selling residential real estate. He’s an absolute Pro!
BBB Review on March 19, 2021
So we’re from California so we definitely know a tough market. It was our first time buying a house and we wanted a someone who was a shark and knew what he was doing so our chiropractor recommended Jim. Jim always responded and was constantly pulling up comps and letting us know if the price was right. We finally ended up with a house and the realtor they used was TERRIBLE. She purposely lied and tried to cover things up. Jim would investigate all of her lies and bring them to light. In the end, we got everything we wanted from our inspection objection. They tried to fight most things but Jim wouldn’t have it. He was amazing because he would handle things on his own taking the stress away from us. He looked after us and made sure we weren’t screwed over (which we would have been). Having him as our realtor made this a fun, mostly stress free process. Seriously will be using him the rest of our lives. The most amazing realtor and such a badass shark. I believe he has 4 investment properties as of right now and has been in the business for over a decade. He knows SO much about Colorado properties that he’s almost his own inspector. We would walk into properties and he would instantly see the construction and know if it was to code or not. He’s such a wealth of knowledge and the best man to have on your side.
BBB Review on December 14, 2020
Jim not only helped us sell our house for 10K over asking price, but he also helped us find our dream house in the neighborhood of our choice. His knowledge of the market and negotiating skills are second to none! Choosing Jim as our agent was the best choice we could have and we cannot recommend him highly enough.
BBB Review on December 13, 2020
Jim was helpful in every way I could imagine during the selling and purchasing of our homes. He was timely in all communications; being concise and clear in his efforts. Jim pulls from many life experiences to be proactive in his ability to research potentially difficulty circumstances that can arise during an increasingly difficult real estate atmosphere. At one point in our process, just three weeks before our closings, Jim felt there was something amiss, which prompted him to investigate the situation. Ultimately, Jim identified the problem in time to get our house back on the market and under contract within four days, with new buyers, which allowed us to close on the house we were selling and buying on schedule. In my experience, there are few realtors that possess the experience, character, and decisiveness to be able to avoid disaster like Jim did. From my family of six; Thank You Jim for taking care of us!
BBB Review on December 10, 2020
Jim is our realtor and represented us in purchasing a new home in Castle Pines. He has a deep understanding of the market and sub-markets which helped us focus our search. He is a wealth of information about the nuances of the purchase process, and also has a deep understanding of home construction including some peculiarities of this area. Jim provided advice that helped us structure the purchase and loan to suit our needs and avoid both immediate and future costs. We are not first time home buyers and considered ourselves quite knowledgeable, but without Jim, we would have never ended up in this beautiful home. Jim is a true professional and now a new friend. Thanks Jim.
BBB Review on December 10, 2020
Jim service in selling my home was superior. He is one of the most effective realtors that I have ever worked with. I consider him and expert in contract negotiations, the current market, contract completion and ability to close with no defects. My best interest was his #1 priority. He kept me up to date on my processing after contract submission….His service was second to none.
BBB Review on August 12, 2020
Jim G. is a remarkable realtor. We began working with him in 2015 when he helped with the purchase of our home. He was available via text, email, and phone to answer any question that we had. The process was so streamlined that we continue to refer him to friends and family. I recently reached out to Jim to assist with a client who had a parcel of property out of state that needed to be sold. Although Jim was unable to assist with the sale he made a referral to someone who could help. Because of his impressive abilities work with clients and other professionals we reached out to him again to assist our daughter-in-law in purchasing her first home. We knew this would not be an easy task but Jim was up for the challenge. He is not only a buyers agent but he also made sure she was treated like one of his family. He looked out for her best interest and made the process easy for her to understand. You could not ask for a better realtor to either help you buy or sell a home.
MSN Review on August 10, 2020
I’ve been thinking every day since the closing of our house to thank you for all of your help selling it. We could never have done it without your help. Thank you very much. You are the best. And have a big heart. To us you are the best Real Estate Agent that we have dealt with in all of our 50 years since we both bought our first house.
Google Review on July 15, 2020
Bought our first house last month. Jim is very professional, knowledgable, quick to respond calls, emails, when needed. We closed in only 3 weeks on our house, couldn’t be happier with his help! Highly recommended!
BBB Review on June 30, 2020
Jim is a fantastic buyers agent. He was knowledgable, punctual, hard working, and always available to answer questions. The buying process could not have gone smoother with him at the helm. Another fantastic aspect of his service is the recommendations he makes. He provides a packet of many different types of recommendations and they are all highly vetted and top quality choices. Jim will work hard for you; on the day of close when we had a question about the customer completing some of the cleanliness requirements in our contract…Jim was driving up there at the crack of dawn to ensure we were good to close. My wife and I are completely satisfied with our experience hiring him as a buyers agent and we guarantee you he will not disappoint. Jim: thank you for everything!!
BBB Review on June 20, 2020
We first met Jim in the beginning of 2018 when he assisted us in the selling of our house in North Denver and the building of our new home in Castle Rock. We looked at many realtors, including family friends, and ultimately chose Jim as our realtor. A decision we are so happy we made. We chose Jim because it was immediately apparent that he is honest, loyal, and truly cares about his clients. Jim not only sold our house quickly, but he also got us $15k over market. Jim is not the type of realtor who will list your house low, which other realtors had suggested we do, in order to make a quick commission. He is extremely knowledgeable about the market and knows when to list and for how much. While selling our home in Denver, we were also building a new house in Castle Rock. Building a house is a stressful endeavor but having Jim by our side to help us through every step of the process eased our nerves and made it a fun experience. He was there to answer every question we had and even offered to join us in the design studio, which is unheard of when it comes to realtors. It’s been over a year since we moved into our new home, and Jim is still answering questions and offering advice. We now consider Jim more of a friend than our realtor. When it comes to realtors, there is only one recommendation we would ever give and that’s Jim Garcia.
BBB Review on May 13, 2020
Working with Jim to sell our home was amazing! We were under contract in just 3 days!! We got full asking and were thrilled! In addition, Jim worked so hard to help us get into a home during the hardest of times! He didn’t let the virus keep him from fighting for us! We are in a new home we love, and we owe it to him! He is great to work with! I will recommend him to anyone I know looking to buy or sell a house!

Jim Garcia is an excellent realtor. He’s easy going, knowledgeable and honest. When we were house hunting he was always available and on time. He’s easy to get ahold of and always prompt to communicate and respond to any questions we have. Jim was always looking out for our best interest as buyers. We definitely recommend Jim! Don’t hesitate to call him!

Jim is a true professional. He puts his clients’ best interest as his top priority. He is a real student of his craft.

Jim is a fantastic realtor who helped us prep and sell our home quickly for our targeted price. He is quick, efficient, and easy to get ahold of. I would gladly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Helpful Guide for Moving to a New House
So, you’re planning a Douglas County Colorado relocation. Congratulations! Hopefully, you’ll have the help of dependable movers. Relocating an entire household can be expensive, but using a reputable moving company will help guarantee that your items won’t get damaged and you won’t hurt your own back! Prior to the move, you should prepare for several phases that will help make your moving day as hassle free as possible.
Phase One: Before the Move
This is the time when you’ll be packing. You might want to hire a moving company to help pack your items, but this can be expensive. It’s best if you can do the bulk of the packing on your own. Check local box businesses to see if they rent containers. That way you’ll be able to avoid spending money on boxes that you’re just going to throw away.
The key word before the move is label, as in label everything. You’ll be in much better shape as you unpack if all the boxes are placed in the right room. You should label a box with Overnight and fill it with a change of clothes, bedding and a toothbrush. For your first night in your new home, this might be the only box you’ll want to open!
Phase Two: Moving Day
When the movers arrive, they’ll present you with a contract providing you with the details of estimates and the work crew. As the crew starts carting off boxes, you might want to do a walk-through with the crew chief to inspect all your big pieces of furniture. That way, if damage occurs, you’ll be protected. Also, leave out some cool drinks for the crew. A little goodwill can go a long way – especially on a hot day.
If you have kids or pets, you might want to consider some form of day care for both. Your focus should be on making sure the move is done correctly.
Phase Three: Closing the House
When the last box has been loaded onto the truck, you should make one last tour of your former home to make sure everything is out. You’ll want to clean the home, which should be easy once it is empty. Just think about how clean you will want your new home to look when you get there! Lock the doors and windows and take a moment to say “good-bye.”
Phase Four: The New House
Because all of your boxes should be labeled, it can help the movers to label the doors in the new house – especially if you have designated boxes labeled as Kids, Office, or Guest Room. Take advantage of your movers by having them to place big furniture pieces exactly where you want them, but don’t go overboard with the rearranging. Try to come up with a furniture plan in advance.
As the furniture arrives, check it for any damage. You won’t be able to make much of a claim after moving day, which is why you have to catch the damage right then and there. Finally, you’ll be asked to sign the mover’s contract. If there is a problem with damage, it should be written on that contract. Good luck!
