"While holding myself to the highest professional, technical, and ethical standards, I will provide my customers with expertise, honesty, and the highest level of service. I will strive to help my customers make prudent real estate decisions and in the process, prove worthy of their trust and friendship, so that I may become a long term friend and their trusted real estate advisor
My wife and I are first time home buyers, so it was important for us to have a realtor that we could trust and depend on. Chris checked every box for us and we couldn't be happier with our experience working with him. Chris is dependable and responsive. These are two of the most important traits that my wife and I most value in a realtor. Whenever we had questions about a listing or wanted to see a house, Chris was available for us at the drop of a dime without question or hesitancy. He was patient with us and never pressured us into a decision we weren't ready to make. He reassured us when we had concerns and made us feel confident that we were making the right choices along the way. Chris is skilled in his ability to connect with his clients. He would repeatedly tell us, "I like how you guys are going about this" or "I'm glad to see that you guys are thinking about it that way." Those little comments of reassurance went a long way for us during this experience. Chris is also understanding. We were in a situation where we had to back out of a deal because of a poor inspection result and Chris supported our decision without pushback. Chris provided great insight on tough decisions and empowered us to make our own decisions about what was best for us. Finally, Chris is a great person and genuinely cares about the people he works with. He is careful and intentional with his communication and we felt that he had our best interests in mind the entire way. We will 100% recommend Chris to our friends and family!
Chris was fantastic to work with and made our entire house-selling process as stress-free as possible! Communication was excellent and we’re appreciative Chris was always available to guide us through every step!
Chris was great to work with. He was very professional and diligent with his follow up. I will definitely work with him in the future. Tom Wilczynski Managing Partner Smokey's Cannabis Company Trinidad Gardens
Chris was excellent to work with. He was always there for us during our journey looking for a new home. He was never too busy to show us homes and knew what we were looking for in a home. I would be proud to recommend Chris as he was exceptional.
He was outstanding in every way!!!!!!
Chris really understood what we were trying to accomplish with our move. He went above and beyond to accommodate us. He is professional, knowledgeable and kind. We feel so lucky to have him for our agent.
Chris and his team were exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful to us in our process of submitting a competitive offer that resulted in our purchase of anew home. He was also primarily responsible for the relative ease with which our existing home was sold at full price, enabling the completion of our new home purchase in record time. He is a kind and thoughtful professional that we plan to both recommend enthusiastically and seek out again when looking for a new home. Thank you, Chris! Sam and Joni Martin
This is the first home my wife and I have bought together. Chris walked us through every step of the way and made the entire process extremely comfortable to deal with. We've learned a lot along this process and thank Chris for that. He went above and beyond our expectations and found us the exact home we were looking for. I will be recommending him to anybody that needs his service. Thank you Chris, for everything!
Chris is everything you want in a professional real estate agent. I have worked with him before and will work with him again.
We looked at over 10 different houses with Chris until we found our dream house. During this process Chris was very friendly and patient with us. Overall, my wife and I were very impressed with the Group and hopefully will do more business with them in the future.
Chris did well for us. He has represented me on (4) deals (3) of which were 1M or more. He is professional.
It is easy to see that Chris has been groomed by the group and his father to become an excellent agent!
As the co-listing agent, Chris was an immense help in selling our home, giving the extra push we needed with all of his resources and TheGroup, we appreciate everything has done for us!
Looking for an excellent real estate agent? Well, look no further, Chris C. Hau from The Group, Inc. is your answer! Chris’s attention to detail, knowledge, professionalism, honesty and excellent communication skills made selling a home during a pandemic while living out of state a breeze. The Group Inc. has outstanding real estate agents! Thank you!
I have to be honest. I was initially hesitant to employ the services of Chris. I didn't know Chris and he was a good friend of the seller. Well, was I surprised! Chris was one of the most honest, helpful, and reliable resources during this sales/closing process. You would have thought that he was my realtor! I have owned several homes in CO and I will definitely be recommending Chris and The Group to anyone that I run into that may need a realtor! Five star service all around. The closing personnel were also a five star!
From start to finish, Chris always went the extra mile for me in order to find the right home. Chris has incredible patience and forethought as we went through the process. If I have to buy another home in Northern Colorado, I will do everything I can to use his service again. Thank you Chris!
Chris is great to work with! He is very personable, dependable and has a very good knowledge of real estate related issues. He and his Group staff communicated regularly to us throughout our purchasing experience. Chris followed up on several questions we had and he was an effective liaison between the seller and us so we got the answers we needed quickly. He also met us over at the property several times to make sure that we would be quite familiar with what we were to buy. Our closing went very smoothly because Chris had it all organized after contacting our banker and the Group closing agent. Chris goes the extra mile and he's such a great agent to work with. We would highly recommend working with Chris Hau!
Chris did a great job marketing our home and walking me through the selling process.
Chris is always insightful and knowledgeable on the investments we are looking into. I appreciate all his research and commitment to us. Enjoy working with you!
Chris made the whole process of selling our house easy and stress free. He walked us through every step and provided us with valuable insight into what would increase the sale price of our home. The Group generated lots of interest and put on many open houses for us.
Chris worked hard to market my property, get offers, and then negotiate effectively on my behalf. He communicated well throughout the process so I knew exactly what was going on at all times. I would highly recommend using Chris for all of your real estate needs.
Chris found a house that met our needs and suited our lifestyle. After we made the decision to buy the house, he was available at all times for our questions that go with buying a house while living in another state. The stressful process that goes with making a life decision was easier with all the help he gave us. Thanks, Chris! We are extremely happy with our house.
This is a review I have been meaning to do for a while now. I am a commercial appraiser in northern Colorado and a portion of my job involves confirming and verifying commercial sales and listings. Chris and his father Craig are two brokers that particularly stand out in my mind for their honesty, their knowledge in the industry, their friendly manner and overall willingness to help. While most brokers won't return phone calls to appraisers (since we are not directly offering them monetary incentive), Chris always responds promptly and I believe that he truly cares about his profession. While you may not even remember many calls with me Chris.....thank you. I have given your number out (and Craig's) several times and will continue to do so for people looking for good brokers in northern Colorado. If I can ever be a resource to real estate information you may be looking for, please feel free to reach out.
Chris Hau is fantastic! He worked hard to make sure the whole process went smoothly and it did. He is very professional and knowledgeable about the Northern Colorado real estate market. I will be using Chris again in the future for sure.
Chris was great to work with! He was patient and did a great job of walking us through the entire process. He got us a full price offer on our home the first day it was on the market and negotiated on our behalf to get us into our new home.
