Arn has an educational, cultural, professional, and experiential background that sets him apart from most other real estate professionals. He is known for out-of-the-box thinking, which he applies towards marketing unique properties.
Extensive experience with sellers and buyers of all types allows Arn to also relate and think from a buyer’s perspective, which is very valuable when marketing and presenting your home. Understanding what a buyer will be looking for, and what they will be thinking about, is of the utmost importance.
Arn has been passionate about Boulder and Colorado since coming to the University of Colorado to study Mechanical Engineering and Business. He knows the Boulder area inside and out, and has a broad knowledge base related to the Boulder area.
Arn’s focus, throughout the entire real estate transaction, is toward his clients. Staying focused on his fiduciary responsibility to his clients is top of mind, while helping them understand each step of the transaction, and keeping them informed. Over the years, and through a large variety of different transactions, Arn has developed a honed negotiation style that makes him an asset in every transaction he is involved with.
“I have true passion for real estate transactions and helping my clients. From condos and townhomes, to mountain properties, ranch properties, luxury homes, and developable land, I have the professional background and knowledge to represent you, manage a smooth transaction, and maximize your returns. It’s also important to highlight that LIV Sotheby’s International Realty is the best real estate brokerage in the state, and our professional staff is here to support the process of selling your home.”
