A star rating seems completely inadequate to describe what Chase did for us. We had owned a lot for many years. When the time came to build, Chase worked with us, and arranged for us to meet others, to decide what would be best for our retirement. He also connected us with advisors and mortgage lenders, including advisors who offered us great advice about when to buy (and not to buy) based on our finances. We worked with Chase for over two years. During this time he also assisted us with a tax protest that succeeded in substantially lowering the assessed value of our land. He also offered us some of the most sound advice we ever received regarding the advantages of purchasing a home rather than building on our lot. He spent months showing us houses that we could use for comparison and was always ready to speak with us any time. We decided to sell our land and he made that happen and at a good price. When a house that seemed like a dream came on the market he alerted us to move quickly--which was also great advice. He was there every step of the way through closing, including providing extensive information and introducing us to a great inspector. Chase also knows every broker in the area and many property owners--even showing us some homes before they officially were listed. At the end of it all, a long road of decision making on our part, we ended up with the house of our dreams. far larger and far nicer than what we could have built with our construction budget (and for the same price), and, best of all, ended up with a good friend. We look forward to lots of years of friendship with Chase as we live our dream of retiring in this most incredible area of Colorado.
Chase went out of his way to assist me and take the deal from start to finish. I have worked in the area for many years and been involved with both residential and commercial property in the Ridgeway, Montrose & Telluride markets. You will not find a better local expert than Chase.
I worked with Chase to get a piece of land I owned in Ridgway sold. He did an excellent job from beginning to end, and we just closed on the land after being on the market for about 3 months. We closed for a place close to what we were targeting in a tricky sellers market which is definitely a credit to Chase' great work. Very professional and easy to work with w/intimate knowledge of the local market aroun northern San Juans. Highly reccomend Chase if your looking for a great agent in the area!
Chase did a great job. He was very easy to work with and accommodating. He was able to sell my property in about 2 weeks for the full asking price in cash. The whole process was a breeze. Ponderosa realty has been around for a long time and it's who I trusted to handle the sale of my property. Chase is family and ponderosa is a family-owned business. That is very important to me. Their dedication to their clients definitely shows. I would absolutely recommend using Chase and ponderosa realty.
Chase is knowledgeable, friendly, respectful and responsive. Answered all my questions in a timely manner and if he did not know the answer he was honest and he tried to find out. He made the whole process, from initially looking at my property to the closing, seamless and easy. I highly recommend him.
Chase did a superb and outstanding job in selling our home within 5 days after listing it!! Chase is knowledgeable and highly experienced in this market. Look no further in selecting a highly skilled professional agent to sell your home. Chase Girard is that agent!
I've worked with Chase both while searching for property to purchase, and now also with selling property. I strongly recommend him for both, as he will work diligently for you, from the beginning to the end of the process. He does not just list it and forget about it. No doubt, we will be working together again in the future.
Chase was awesome! Very responsive and incredibly knowledgeable. I would use him again 10 out of 10 times! We were using a different agent prior to Chase and did not know how terrible that agent was until we experienced Chase. He was very fast in moving the information needed to purchase our land and was forthright with said information. Our last agent was not.
Working with Chase was a pleasant surprise and great find for us. Chase knows the local area well, he guided us through the entire process from property comparisons, to effective communication and negotiation with the sellers, to what was needed to close. What also sets Chase apart from other agents we've worked with is his knowledge of construction, building materials and mountain home maintenance. He was available every day of the week and evenings - he spent multiple days with us to show us multiple properties and option types and he was there with us during inspection and close. I'd be happy to recommend Chase to buyers looking in the area and work with him again when it comes time to sell.
I loved working with Chase. He was super communicative and on top of everything. I always felt confident nothing would fall through the cracks. Highly recommend!
Chase is a great realtor with superior customer service. We spent about 6 months shopping with Chase, and he was zero-nonsense while being very personable. I really appreciated how Chase didnt try to aEURoesell usaEUR? on something specific but rather patiently hunted for the right property based on what we needed. Looking forward to working with Chase and Ponderosa Real Estate again.
Very knowledgeable about the area. Would highly recommend Chase as he is very professional, returns calls promptly and handled both of our transactions with excellent results.
Chase helped me purchase the parcel I now own and it was a very smooth process. There were a couple bumps along the way, but he handled them with grace. No complaints! He is a good agent and I'm very sure he would be great to work with for anyone else purchasing property in the region.
I recently worked with Chase on a land deal. He was very responsive to my questions and made time to show me quite a few places. He had good knowledge of the overall buying process and was able to answer almost all of the specific questions that came up. I'd be happy to work with Chase again should the opportunity arise.
Chase is wise beyond his years. He is a professional in every way and is honest, prompt and accurate in his coordination and information. He goes the extra mile to research the properties and provide accurate information and photos. I hope to be able to work with him in the future.
I would never have found the land I bought if Chase hadn't recommended I go look at it. I didn't want an HOA, and was reaching a dead end on land with a view of the San Juans. Chase recommended a property that had been for sale for 10 months in a small subdivision of Loghill Village, describing the HOA as "laid-back," as the CC&Rs were only five pages. My girlfriend and I went to look at the property, and we decided instantly it was the one after seven years of searching! We read the CC&Rs, and Chase was rightaEUR"we think we can work with them to get the home and outbuilding we want. Chase kept me up to date on everything, and, unlike another real estate agent I worked with earlier on a deal gone bad, didn't mind my attorney changing several clauses in the contract. He has a bright future in the real estate industry and I highly recommend buyers and sellers work with him.
I recently fulfilled a lifelong dream (or at least took the first step toward that dream) of buying a place of our own in Ouray County. So far, I just have an empty piece of land, but hopefully someday, I will be able to afford to have a functional home that my family can enjoy using. I met Chase Girard about a year ago after seeing a Ponderosa Real Estate sign. Since then, he has been a valuable and knowledgeable resource in helpin my wife and I find just the right property to fit our needs. Don't be fooled by his youthful appearance. Chase was born and raised in the area and in the real estate business. He is extremely knowledgeable of all things Ouray County. He is helpful and very easy to work with. He knows his stuff, and will do a good job for you.
