TIPS ON BUYING A HOME IN FORT COLLINS, CO

Buying a home in Fort Collins can be very different than buying a home in other cities. Fort Collins offers a wide range of neighborhoods, housing styles, and ages of homes, which means buyers need to understand things like zoning, HOA rules, inspection considerations, and local market dynamics. Have you ever dealt with radon before? It's an important consideration when buying a home in Fort Collins. This is why it's important to work with a real estate broker who truly specializes in Fort Collins real estate. Having an experienced agent also gives you an advantage when presenting and winning in competitive offer situations. We also recommend working with a local mortgage lender who is familiar with Fort Collins properties. 

FORT COLLINS HAS A SEASONAL REAL ESTATE MARKET

Depending on the time of year you're searching for a home, inventory levels can vary quite a bit. Typically, from early spring through late fall, Fort Collins sees higher inventory, which means more options to choose from. From late fall through early spring, inventory tends to slow down, and fewer homes come on the market. If you're searching online and not seeing many homes available, don't get discouraged. During the winter months, buying a home in Fort Collins is still very possible—it often just requires a bit more patience and persistence. Homes may take longer to appear, but opportunities do still come up.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT US
I couldn’t be happier working with Jason Levi with The Levi Group - REAL Brokerage. Where do I begin? My wife and I have always sold our homes For Sale By Owner, but we weren’t extremely confident with this Colorado market - it’s just different here. We had done our fair share of research, and we thought we knew where our home should be priced. After meeting with Jason, and watching many of his videos on YouTube, we decided to place our trust in him as our realtor. The first conversation we had was a tough but good one, a true reality check. He had clearly done his research on our home, our community, and the market. Jason helped us realize and accept the RIGHT price for our home, one the market would bear, and one that buyers would perceive as fair. We decluttered, staged, and listed. After a couple open houses and numerous showings, we were under contract in 3 weeks. And it’s worth noting, Jason didn’t just shuffle the paperwork. He went to bat for our family, negotiated the best possible deal for us, so we could maximize the true potential of the sale. Our bank account couldn’t be more grateful! If you’re looking for a realtor who will lay down, do what you ask, and take the easy route, Jason is NOT your guy. But if you’re looking for a true professional who will challenge you, give you a dose of reality, and make the sale of your home as seamless as a trip to Costco, you’ve found your realtor. Hats off to Jason and his team! If our new home isn’t a forever home, we will certainly be looking to use his services again.

If you are looking for the best Realtor in Timnath or the surrounding Fort Collins area, I highly recommend Jason Levi and The Levi Group. Their team-based approach to Northern Colorado real estate is a total game-changer; having an entire group of specialists working on my behalf made the home-buying process seamless. When it came to the closing table, Jason’s expertise as a negotiator really shined—he secured significant seller concessions that I didn't think were possible. If you need a top-tier NoCo real estate agent who knows the Larimer County market inside and out, Jason Levi is the one to call.

Jason at Levi Group was able to find us our house within around a month. He's professional and caring, and you can tell he really knows the business. The process of finding a house all the way through closing was fast and painless. I highly recommend the Levi Group if you're looking to buy or sell a home.

I would highly recommend JasonLevi and the Levi Group as they are truly Top Fort Collins Realtors.

Misty Maki
What began as an inquiry to purchase an investment property in Fort Collins turned into a relocation for these 2 native Californians! Carrie and her team worked tirelessly with us across the time zones identifying properties. She personally toured homes for us and took videos pointing out things that we should consider. She is EXTREMELY knowledgeable of the different neighborhoods and was able to pinpoint a neighborhood in Loveland that is PERFECT for us! When it came time to make an offer on the home, Carrie negotiated our offer and we ended up buying a wonderful home below asking price. She provided spreadsheets with vendors for everything I might need moving to a new area. She was ALWAYS available for questions, calls, advice, etc. I can wholeheartedly recommend The Levi Group and their team of professionals for buying a home in Northern Colorado. Picture is from the day she brought us our house keys AND taught us how to shovel snow! Now THAT"s something to rave about! :-)

Savanna Campbell
In the spring of 2025, I set out to purchase a house and was daunted by the prospect to say the least. Sharing my concerns with some friends, they suggested I use the professionals at The Levi Group. Led by Jason Levi, I was helped through every turn of the fast-paced Fort Collins market. Assisted by Jason and Kirsten Johannsson, I received the personal care and patience one should expect when making the largest purchase of their life. They were able to help me view house after house until I was able to find the one I would call home. From refining my wants and desires to helping me to find the right people for financing, I was able to engage in the home buying process with Jason and Kirsten in a way that made me feel like a person, not just a paycheck. I highly recommend Jason and Kirsten to anyone looking to find their future home in Fort Collins.
