Community Involvement
As a Northern Colorado Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty in Johnstown, community involvement isn't just part of my business--it's part of who I am. I'm active throughout Longmont, Mead, Frederick, and Firestone, where my family and I live, learn, and serve. I support the St. Vrain Valley School District, sponsor local sports teams, and host women's networking events that empower and connect local entrepreneurs. I also lead community gatherings like "Sourdough Social" and "Bunco & Bites," bringing neighbors together through friendship and laughter. For me, real estate is about relationships and giving back to the communities that make Colorado such a special place to call home.
HOBBIES/INTEREST
When I'm not working with clients across Northern Colorado, you'll usually find me baking sourdough bread, cheering at Mead Mavericks games, or exploring Colorado's trails with my family. I love connecting with others through creative projects, local events, and mentoring women in business. I'm also passionate about technology and training other real estate agents on how to use AI tools to grow their business more efficiently. From baking to branding, I'm all about building things that bring people together.
FAMILY
Family is at the heart of everything I do. As a mom of seven and a local Northern Colorado Realtor, I understand what it means to find a home that truly fits a family's lifestyle. My husband Rich and I are raising our kids in the St. Vrain Valley School District, where we spend our days balancing sports schedules, music programs, and neighborhood adventures with our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Watson. Our family is often seen cruising around Raspberry Hill on our golf cart, enjoying the best of small-town Colorado life.

FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Buying a home in Colorado right now means balancing opportunity with strategy. My advice is to not wait for rates to drop. Focus on finding a deal that makes sense today. Buyers who stay flexible, understand their numbers, and take advantage of seller concessions are winning in this market. I help my clients look beyond the list price by factoring in interest rates, taxes, and long-term equity so they can buy smart and confidently.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
For sellers, the key is to price strategically, market creatively, and stay adaptable. The right pricing and presentation can make all the difference. I use a mix of market analytics and AI-driven marketing to position homes where buyers are actually looking. My goal is always to make sure every listing gets the attention it deserves and sells for top value.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
I’ve worked with first-time buyers, move-up families, luxury sellers, and relocation clients throughout Colorado. Many of my clients are families juggling busy lives with school, sports, and work. I also work with women navigating transitions like divorce, downsizing, or starting over in a new area.
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
One of my favorite recent transactions was helping a family secure a home for more than $100,000 under the list price. We used strategy, timing, and strong communication with the seller to make it happen. It completely changed what was possible for that family, and it’s a great example of how the right plan and a trusted agent can make a huge difference.
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I started in real estate nine years ago because I wanted to help families experience the stability and freedom that comes from homeownership. With seven kids and deep community roots, I understand how important it is to find a home that fits real life. Over the years, this business has become about more than sales for me it’s about connection, growth, and helping people build something lasting.
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
Yes. I’m RealTrends Verified for 2025 and continuously trained in advanced negotiation, market analysis, and AI-powered marketing. I use these tools to help my clients make informed, strategic decisions whether they’re buying, selling, or investing in Colorado real estate.

My Granddaughter was purchasing her first home and Beth made it so easy for her. First, she connected her with a loan officer and then sent her homes to look at on the computer. When they went out looking at homes, Beth knew exactly what my Granddaughter was looking for and found it almost immediately. They negotiated with the seller, and she was able to purchase her first home. She was so thankful to have such a caring and knowledgeable Real Estate Professional!

We hired Beth to sell our house in 2021. We had offers on our house within days, so that was fine. The problem (with Beth) came when we went to close on our new construction. At our one week walk through, not much was finished. I felt there were months left of work. Beth told the contractor that we would not move in until these thing were complete, Thus setting a precedent that she has some knowledge in this sort of thing. Our closing day came, and 80% of the items were not complete. I simply referred to Beth , and her statement, and said we would not accept the house, and would not be moving in. It was at this time, Beth stated we didn't have a choice, they would find us in default. She completely blind sided us, claimed to know things, but was basically uneducated. We are still waiting for things to be completed after 7 months. Yes, it is the builders fault as well, but Beth fully made claims she was not able to back. I feel as though we were just a commission check, and that is all. I would just warn people to do their due diligence before trusting Beth with any sort of real estate transactions.

Beth helped us find a home that fit all of our needs during a pandemic in a very competitive housing market. She rose to every challenge and helped us every step of the way. She's very familiar with Colorado and will do anything she can to put her clients first in any deal. We couldn't be happier with our realtor. I highly recommend Beth Shields for her professionalism and knack for knowing the market. If you're looking to buy or sell a property you'll be in very good hands with Beth!

I was a first time home buyer with absolutely no idea of what I was doing. I expected it to be a very overwhelming experience but Beth was amazing and helped me through each step, answering every question. I never thought Id be able to buy a home being a single mother but she helped make my dream come true!

Beth and her team helped represented us on both the buy and sell side. On the buy side, she got to know us and what we wanted very well. Beth pointed us in the right direction and questioned us when we were off track. She helped us with our offer based upon her knowledge of the area and data from comps. Ultimately we found the right property at the right price. Her network includes a great mortgage guy too. On the sell side, Beth nailed it. Once again her network helped prepare the house, helped sell the house and kept the paperwork flowing. Beth said the house within our timeframe for a very good price. So if you want someone who really works to understand your needs and then delivers, Beth is your choice in northern Colorado!

There are Realtors and then there is Beth. Throughout this whole process it was clear this was more than just another transaction. It was about building a healthy relationship, making sure we were completely comfortable with what our options were, and building a trusting bond for a long time to come! It isn't about the transaction with Beth but the experience of an exciting time of our lives. I highly recommend Beth to all of my friends, family, and so on. We had to sell our home and were looking to buy another. She was working double duty for us. What was most impressive is I never went to voice mail. Always picked up and responded to text messages within seconds. I don't know how she does it but she does it very well!!! Thanks Beth for everything.

Beth was absolutely wonderful to work with. She walked me through all the negotiations making recommendations along the way, put me in contact with my loan officer who was knowledgeable about all loans types available to help and she never hesitated to pick up the phone when I had questions. She really helped put me at ease with this nerve racking process.

I had contacted a listing and Beth was the person who took my call. She was very prompt in getting the information and returning my call. We then met with her and felt very comfortable with her. She listed our home and the first day we had multiple offers. She helped us get a great contract and helped us through the closing process. We had a very unique situation on purchasing a new home. She was amazing and so encouraging when the situation looked hopeless. She went above her call of duty. I would highly recommend Beth!
