Buying or Selling a Home in Colorado Springs
Brunk & Brunk, Inc. is a family-owned real estate brokerage that has helped buyers and sellers in Colorado Springs and along the Front Range since 1984. Our team has helped sell thousands of homes.
We're also a full-service property management company. That means we see the inside of hundreds of homes every year. We know how they're built, what commonly breaks, what can and can't be fixed, and roughly what a repair costs, because we likely just handled a similar one on another home.

FAQ: Buying and selling
How do you price my home? We compare your home to similar homes that recently sold nearby, then adjust for condition, updates and location. We use the same comparable sales an appraiser would, so you can be confident in the price we recommend. Because we also manage hundreds of homes, we know what repairs and upgrades are worth to buyers.
What does the home buying process look like?
Get pre-approved for a loan so you know your budget.
Tour homes with us. We point out potential issues and likely repair costs as we go.
Make an offer. We explain every term and your options before you sign.

Closing. You sign, the funds transfer and you get your keys.
After you move in, we're still here for you, with trusted vendors for any maintenance or improvement project you need.
What money do buyers need up front? Plan for these costs before closing:
Earnest money when your offer is accepted, usually about 1% of the purchase price.
Home inspection: typically $650 to $900.
Appraisal: typically $600 to $850.
Down payment and closing costs at closing. Closing costs vary by lender and by what we negotiate with the seller in your offer.
Can you recommend a lender? Yes. We work with several lenders we've closed many successful transactions with, and we also suggest checking with your own bank. A great lender is one who can send a pre-approval letter on weekends and after hours, so you're ready when we find the home you love. Contact us for our list of recommended lenders and we'll help you find the right fit.
