I have lived in the Fort Lupton/Hudson area for over 30 years, so I already had a rudimentary knowledge of the public areas of this building. Thanks to Steve Boeck's knowledgeable tour of the site, I now feel pretty familiar with the entire facility. I am also familiar with most of the other commercial properties currently available in the Fort Lupton area, and so feel very prepared to market this particular property. As in so many communities we are currently seeing declining market conditions resulting in many vacancies in the downtown Fort Lupton area. Upon conducting the market analysis I have concluded that the Fall 2006 appraised value of$460,000 by Foster Valuation Company LLC is no longer an accurate picture of the marketability of this property. In my investigation I included the much newer and high quality"Zimick(sp) Building"(located on Denver Avenue next to the United Power offices) which is currently listed at an extremely reasonable $450K. It has been on the market for 2+ years &still has no current interested parties. Much of the downtown Fort Lupton area is currently vacant and office space is leasing at a bargain price of$5.00 per square foot. So although this building offers so much potential, my current thinking is that it should be offered at a much more saleable $325,000-$360,000. As for what I can offer you regarding the sale of this property, I would like to team up with Jan Hepp-Struck to market this particular property. Jan is a certified real estate para-legal and brings nearly 30 years of successful residential and commercial Real Estate experience as a Broker in the Brighton-Fort Lupton area. Beyond my own advanced Real Estate education and experience, I also have over 30 years of business experience owning and operating a thriving small business here in S. E. Weld County. We feel that our partnership on this project will bring above average expertise and service which should result in the most favorable sale of this property for Weld County. Hepp Realty is very centrally located and well-positioned in this market and surrounding communities, enabling us to enjoy great"word of mouth"marketing as well as more traditional marketing avenues. In addition, Jan &I both employ extensive use of the Internet and will communicate to potential buyers by use of broadcast emails, postings, high quality digital photography of the property, etc. utilizing various websites as well as our own great site 2007-3494 I www.heoorealtv.com. We intend to market the property by all necessary means, including but not limited to: • Prominent Commercial Signage at Property Location • DMCAR Listing (Denver Metro Commercial Association of Realtors) • CoStar.com Listing(National Commercial Listing Site) • LoopNet Commercial Listing • E Flyer Listing-Internet Based Commercial Real Estate Service • Contact with Economic Development Groups in both the Weld &Adams County Areas • Creation &Distribution of Print Material advertising both the availability &amenities of the subject Property Jan and I propose a full-service based listing fee of 6.5% which enables us to be able to share with cooperating Brokerage Firms an attractive incentive of 3.5% to produce an acceptable Purchaser. In our experience, this fee structuring also allows us to be more generous with our advertising budget as well, which is where many brokerage firms might feel tempted to skimp if asked to be employed at a reduced rate. In summation, I feel our combined expertise, knowledge of this area, work ethic and enthusiasm make us the ideal firm to accomplish the sale of this property. I would also like to mention that my stake in seeing this building regain it's vital role in our city, goes beyond simple financial gain. Fort Lupton is my hometown and as such, I would very much like to have a part in helping to revitalize her downtown area with positive growth.
