Light, weather and when to shoot

Bright at altitude: winter snow days are excellent exteriors if exposed for the snow; summer afternoons bring thunderstorms; the last hour before sunset on the foothills is the exterior. Smoke can flatten the sky in late summer — re-shoot when it clears.

What sells here, and what buyers want to see

Wash Park, Highlands and Sloan's Lake sell the neighbourhood and the walk; Highlands Ranch, Castle Rock and the southern suburbs sell schools, basements and the view; Golden and the foothills sell the setting. Buyers want the finished basement, the garage and the covered patio.

The clips to make

View push to the Front Range on a clear day.
Slide down into the finished basement; truck along the garage.

Rules worth checking

Colorado's seller's property disclosure applies to most sales. Foothills lots are wildfire-interface — see the wildfire guide. Airspace near DIA, Centennial and Buckley restricts drones over much of the metro; the mountain view is a view push from the window, not an aerial.

Disclosure, drone and privacy rules change and differ by MLS and municipality; confirm the current version with your broker before you rely on anything here.

Questions

Snow on the ground — shoot or wait?

Shoot on a bright, still day and expose for the snow. Denver sells in winter and buyers know what winter looks like; add a summer exterior when it comes.

How do I show the mountain view honestly?

From the window or the deck, on a clear day, with the view as the landing frame. Do not crop out the neighbour's roof if it is in the view.
