While working with Dave we have been very satisfied with the job he has done representing us in selling our house at 20381 High Pines Drive, Monument, CO.
Dave has been easy to work with and his follow-through has been very good. He has been great at helping us through the pile of paperwork that goes along with the sale of our property.
He is easy to get a hold of and answers questions quickly; also he is very knowledgeable about the market and up to date on any changes.
Dave has an easy going personality (unlike other agents we have worked with) have enjoyed working with him.

Dave called early and often to keep me informed concerning the progress of the sale. He exceeded my expectations. His advice was "spot on." Additional Comments: TLC all along the way. Keep in contact to make sure I was served properly.

The only way to sell your home. On the market less than a month! Marketed right the first time. Excellent knowledge of local markets and local showing agents. Cannot say enough good about this process or the agent or the USAA advisor. Quick, professional, communicative, imagative, helpful, kept all their promises!

I tip my hat to a master: in a slow market, with five other houses for sale within two blocks of our house, and more houses on the market than at any time since 1990, you sold our house within 30 days of it going on the market, and we got the price we wanted! Incredible! Over the years this is the sixth house we've sold, but none were in a market this difficult or with these kinds of challenges. I can't tell you how much both Ann and I are impressed and pleased with your honest advice and superb professionalism. Please accept our sincere appreciation for success in a difficult job. Well done! As you know, I've recently retired from a career in the military. I pass my strongest personal recommendation for anyone intending on buying or selling a house to considering your services first: you understood our needs, you got results. 'Nuff said. Again, well done. You have my enthusiastic permission to use this letter in any manner you wish, and I hope it will assist you in your business efforts.

I have utilized the professional services of Dave Robbins, CRS/GRI, since 1985. Over the course of this time, Mr. Robbins, has swiftly and successfully managed the sale of five personal residential properties and the subsequent purchase of four properties. In this past year I contacted Mr. Robbins for the sale of a business property in Teller County after over 2 years of listing the property with Teller County based Realtors, with no results. Again, Mr. Robbins was able to locate a buyer and negotiate the sale of this unique business property within 4 months.
I attribute the sale of all these properties to Mr. Robbins professionalism, tenacity, ingenuity and focus. I have deferred to his business sense and skills and have never been disappointed in his ability to finalize a sale. I would highly recommend the services of Mr. Robbins for any real estate transaction.

I'm writing to pass on my thanks to one of your agents, Dave Robbins. Dave went above and beyond for me and sold the home when an agent with another broker couldn't Il done. Here's the story. My wife and who are currently living in Alexandria, Virginia, placed our Colorado Springs rental property for sale with another broker back In April. While I repeatedly asked for a strategy for selling the home I received nothing but silence. It was as if she was ignoring the question. While I was asking questions such as how can we more effectively market the property; how can we increase the curb appeal; how can we gain a competitive advantage over other homes in the area, the broker's only response was to list the home on MLS and reduce the price of the home every two weeks until it is sold. After four months of frustration and a lack of communication from the broker, I fired her and contacted Dave Robbins. Dave was a breath of fresh air from the very first phone call. Ho listened to my frustrations, told me he could affectively market the home and want to work developing suggestions and recommendations for selling the home. His market analysis was directly to the point and articulated the strengths and weaknesses of our property. He suggested making basic repairs to the home that the other broker overlooked, applying a new coat of paint, proactively taking out a home warranty, having the home Inspected, etc. I agreed with all of his suggestions, made the repairs, elc, and the home began getting viewed by potential buyers, Additionally, Dave Identified potential hall damage with the roof and suggested I have It Inspected. The subsequent Inspection identified that the roof had extensive damage and required replacement. The roof was replaced and became a huge factor in the offer that wo subsequently accepted. But Dave wasn't done yet with his outstanding service. Since we live In Virginia, Dave took Il upon himself to provide contacts for carpet cleaners, painters, a plumber, a garage door repair service and an electrician. He opened the home for repairs and even mowed the lawn a few Umas. The bottom-line is Dave went above and beyond and sold our home. We are in his debt. Having bought and sold eight homes over the years, my wife and I have experienced the full spectrum of good to bad real estate agents. Dave was head and shoulders above all of the agents we've worked with in regards to service, communication, strategy development and success. Please pass on our tremendous thanks to Dave for his outstanding service. I'm convinced that without Dave, our home would still be on the market.

Recently my husband and I sold a home that was very special to us and moved to another we remodeled here in town. Our realtor was Dave Robbins, with your company, and he did an outstanding job of marketing our home and negotiating its sale. Originally we purchased this home through Dave eleven years ago. That deal was a challenging one - but Dave did an excellent job of putting it together, holding it together, and then finalizing its sale. This home became so special to us. So when it came time for us to list our home, we entrusted it to Dave. Again, we were so pleased. This time the Colorado Springs' market was challenging, but Dave worked very hard at promoting our unique home. He pursued a variety of avenues, even arranging for us to be on the cover of the Real Estate section in our local paper. On site, to keep our brochures fresh, he would change the format on occasion - and when our supply was running low, he would have more there in a very timely fashion. We were impressed! Dave is honest and hard working, and provided us with good service. In a difficult market, Dave facilitated the sale of our home to a family we are so happy with. It was a pleasant experience, and we are very pleased to have entrusted our home to him. ERA/Shields is an outstanding company to have worked with, and Dave Robbins represents you well.

We started corresponding with Dave Robbins, Shields Real Estate, in December 2000. We had not spent any time in Colorado Springs, and other than basic information on the Internet, knew very little about the area. We knew that the house had to meet certain criteria and we forwarded the requirements to Dave. Basic requirements included enough for space our children to play, both indoors and out, and a reasonable commuting distance to work. Dave corresponded with us on almost a daily basis. Each time he wrote to us he told us a little about the area and sent us 5-6 listing numbers of houses that might fit our needs.
We finally met with Dave in February 2001. Upon meeting Dave, we asked him to make appointments with 5-10 homes a day for us to see. The first day, he did exactly that. The homes were nice but not really what we wanted. Dave listened to our comments and on the second day he came even closer to showing us a house that we would buy. By the third day, we liked most of the homes that he showed us and found the one that we eventually bought. Dave did an excellent job of focusing our efforts, scheduling appointments, planning travel routes, and making maximum use of our time. He listened to our comments on the listings we visited and by the third day, we believe Dave knew exactly what was important to us. When walking through the homes, he didn't just point out the positive details of the house to make a sale, he also pointed out the faults and why the house may not work for us.
After finding the right home, Dave also recommended other services that helped complete our sale. He recommended a loan service that provided an excellent rate, no origination fee, and also a certified inspector. Dave helped facilitate a quick closing because Steve was leaving for a military deployment and we needed to be in the house as soon as possible. He was able to assist us in getting the house to close in two weeks. He called us almost daily at our hotel to make sure we had completed the right documents and taken required actions so the closing would go smoothly.
Dave continues to offer any help we might possibly need that is related to the house. We would be happy to recommend Dave to anyone moving to Colorado Springs.

My husband and were so pleased with the service we received from Dave Robbins at REMAX real estate group, that wanted to share our experience. Our professional relationship started with Dave in 2008. He was our real estate agent when we purchased our first home. In 2013 we contacted Dave when we were ready to sell. He sold our home at a record price and earned us a nice profit. Dave then used his persuasive magic to help us scare the home of our dreams in early 2014. We purchased this home at an exceptional price and are still enjoying it today. Not to mention the value has doubled since! When our oldest daughter was ready to nestle into her first home, Dave was our go-to guy. With skills like his, she was swiftly under contract in a demanding market. He definitely knows how to make you feel at ease when making a huge financial decision, like buying a home. Dave made sure he understood what was important to us and he found what we wanted plus more. We like working with Dave so much that we referred him to my sister. He helped her to purchase her first home and then sell it for a huge gain. He does not settle. He knows the field and he sells for top dollar. Our relationship did not stop there. Of course we called up our buddy Dave when it was time for my brother in law to purchase his first home. Dave used his captivating charm to once again get us a steal of a deal in a post-COVID market. So, to say we love working with Dave is probably an understatement. He will always be the realtor that we call for our real estate needs and refer our family and friends to.

We chose Dave Robbins and Cres Shields to co-list our home on 1435 Oak Hille Drive last December. We selected Dave, Cres, and Shields Corporation for their professionalism, strength in a slow market, and presence in our neighborhood. Our thoughts on list price, showing concepts, and selling philosophy were in concert and it was easy to reach concurrence as a result.
We were very pleased that our house sold within about 2 1/2 months! As usual, the sale was made through another company office. Dave worked very closely with the other Sales Associate to close the sale.
Dave is a real pleasure to work with and a true professional in whatever he does. His strongest skill for us turned out to be his ability to negotiate. The buyers came in with a first offer that we could not accept. Dave then persuaded the selling agent to get the buyers to accept our compromise price. It was a win-win situation for everyone, thanks to Dave's abilities!
As a direct result of his efforts, Dave Robbins is on our list of recommended Real Estate Sales Associates! By the way, our list is very short. We have a seven-house sale history and we consider ourselves knowledgeable in the buying and selling business. Few people meet our acceptance criteria!

Before, during, and even after the sale Dave Robbins is a true professional. He was always available to answer my questions throughout the entire process of selling my home. He was never without a solution whenever there was something that could slow down or even stop the process. He went above and beyond what most real estate agents will do for their clients by working with multiple contractors, buyers, and other agents all on my behalf. This type of service is not found anymore, but it should be the standard! Thank you for selling my home quickly and professionally, it is truly appreciated.

You represented the sellers of a house we bought at on Salford Lane in 2000. We were very impressed with your professionalism and detail. We are also on your mailing list. Once received, we will be driving around looking at our options. I don't want to take up too much of your time now as we are still some time away. However, when we are ready to sell and buy, we would like to use your serves for both.

We just wanted to thank you for your guidance and assistance in selling my sisters property in Colorado Springs. With us living in Pennsylvania, we needed someone who could cover all the bases and see everything through from beginning to end. You kept us informed through the whole selling period. Your efforts allowed us to sell in a timely manner with minimal disruptions. You gave us advice while also listening to our questions and concerns. Again we appreciate your efforts and professionalism.

Moving day is almost here but I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your hard work in bringing about the sale of our house.
You have proven yourself to be a consummate professional and hard worker whose efforts have paid off many times over. The sale of our house on Broadmoor Blubbs was so fast (within seven days!) that we hardly knew what happened! Needless to say, we were quite pleased with the manner in which you conducted the entire process. It made the whole thing a much more pleasant experience. Your part in assisting with the building of our Cape Pine Way house is much appreciated as well.
When Ron's job required us to make plans to leave our "practically-brand-new" dream house on Cape Pine Way, we would not even consider the idea of any agent but you to assist us once again. And, as our instincts told us, you came through for us yet one more time. We signed the contract to have you market our house on December 26, and received a bid on January 21!! We had prepared ourselves for a much longer wait for the sale of our home and were ecstatic to receive such good news in less than a month! Your endeavors on our behalf have made it possible for me to join Ron in Richmond much sooner than we had dared to hope.
So, thank you, David, we are grateful for all your hard work, enthusiasm, and tenacity on our behalf. You have proven yourself a reliable, responsible agent and, even more importantly, a friend that we will remember fondly in the future.

Our recent purchase of a home in Monument happened within a couple days of listing and required that everyone involved in the transaction act quickly and efficiently. From setting up appointments to communicating our offer and guiding us through inspections and the loan approval process, we're convinced that Dave's efforts and guidance are what made our long distance home purchase possible. His recommendations for local services were spot on and he was more than helpful in acting as our local "boots on the ground" since we were out of state through much of the pre-closing activity. Five stars for Dave and all the folks who worked with us.

We recently had the opportunity to work with Dave Robbins as our selling broker of a property In the Colorado Springs area. Dave is very professional and I would consider him a true expert on the real estate market in Colorado Springs. The property that we were trying to sell was very unique and he was able to find a buyer in a very short time period. He understands the market and his advice on how best to market the property was based on experience and know-how. In addition to his professionalism, Dave is a great person and very easy to work with. I would not hesitate to work with him again and strongly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Colorado Springs.

Carolyn and I want to express our appreciation to you for the outstanding professionalism and exceptional service you provided us in the recent sale of our investment property in the Ivywild neighborhood. We were impressed by the way you priced the property fairly, oversaw minor repairs, recommended appropriate improvements, marketed our property aggressively and brought us several good offers in only a few weeks. Other realtors had discouraged us from even listing our property in the current weak economy. Your hard work, attention to detail, and knowledge of the market led to a smooth transaction and no surprises at the closing table. We are grateful for all you did to make this a happy experience for us as well as the buyer. We wish you continued success.

I'm writing this letter strongly recommending Mr. Dave Robbins as a full service realtor. Dave is the finest realtor my wife and I have dealt with in our 25 years of service to our nation and our 20 moves. When we moved to Colorado Springs, Dave had prepared a binder full of listings on the types of homes we wanted to see divided by geographical region. In three days we walked through 40 homes and found the 'one' we were looking for. Dave's time was our
time - we were his business that week and it was appreciated so much that when is came time to sell our home we called Dave. Though there were several homes on our street that had been on the market for 6 months to 2 years, Dave had ours sold in just over 1 month! Dave has many qualities valued by servicemen and all citizens alike: dependability, honesty, promptness, thoroughness and frankness. The last quality listed, frankness, is one that I especially appreciate. In a business full of people that are quick to tell you what you want to hear, Dave's "straight shooting" way is refreshing. You can trust that he believes what he's telling you. I could go on and on, however, the bottom line is Dave has the experience, integrity and people skills to make the 'pain' of moving a lot easier to take! If we ever move back to Colorado Springs you can bet Dave Robbins will be our realtor.

As a son of an Air Force Officer, our family moved around the country & the world. We relocated to Colorado Springs in the late 1950's and determined to make this our home. Upon graduating from school I was drafted into the service. I served 2 tours in Viet Nam with VF-191 on board the USS Oriskany, CVA 34. An Essex class aircraft carrier. Upon returning to the states in 1975 I joined the Colorado Springs Police Dept. where I was employed for 10 years until I was talked into obtaining my real estate license by a local home Builder & a commercial Broker from our church.
I have been in the business 34+ years, was the Treasurer of the Board of Realtors for 2 years, ran the governmental affairs committee for the Board of Realtors for 5 years, worked on the March of Dimes telethon for 2 years, served meals to the elderly for Silver Key for 3 years and continue to be a high producing Associate Broker. I represented a local home builder providing large semi-custom homes on the front range until he retired. I have worked listing & selling vacant land, Ranch Properties, both in the mountains and on the Eastern Colorado plains. I have listed and sold M1 commercial properties, a Hotel in Cripple Creek, a log cabin resort in the mountains, and naturally hundreds of condos & single family homes throughout the Front Range. I have represented large banks for the sale of hundreds of repossessions. Listed & sold foreclosures & short sales when our city went through some rough years.
I enjoy seeing the happy end result of satisfaction for all my clients as they achieve their real estate goals. I enjoy repeat business from my past clients due to loyalty, honesty, tenacity, and caring for their needs. If I can be of service to you give me a call!
