The last listing attempt tested the market outside of the prime spring selling season.
The home went active in early August and was ultimately withdrawn in October, which is historically a challenging window for higher-end, view-oriented properties as buyer urgency drops after summer and heading into fall. Because of that timing, the market never had a chance to fully engage with the home under optimal conditions. This is important context, because it suggests the outcome was influenced as much by when the property was launched as by price. A future sale benefits from a fresh presentation and a spring-oriented strategy that aligns with when demand for homes like this is strongest, rather than interpreting the prior withdrawal as a definitive verdict on value.
About Us
My name is Grant Dolby, founder of Dolby Haas Real Estate Solutions, and I’ve spent decades helping sellers along the Front Range achieve exceptional results—especially with distinctive homes that require more than a conventional MLS approach.
I began my career in 1987 selling HUD foreclosures in one of the toughest economies in the country. By age 30, I was running real estate offices for Coldwell Banker. A decade later, Keller Williams recruited me to turn around their struggling Highlands Ranch office. Within 36 months, I built it into one of the top-producing brokerages in the nation, with nearly 300 agents and roughly 100 closings per month. Years later, I partnered with Phil Haas at RE/MAX Masters in the Denver Tech Center, where our team became #1 in what was then the top-producing RE/MAX office in North America.
Today, as an independent brokerage, we specialize in problem-solving, precision pricing, and marketing execution for upper-tier homes—particularly properties that need strategy, not guesswork. We’re also known for our Cancel Anytime Guarantee, because great service shouldn’t require handcuffs.
How We Position Your Home for Maximum Success
1962 Montane Drive is not a “plug-and-play” listing. It’s a fully updated, well-sorted home with an exceptional view and strong intrinsic value—but it also has architectural elements that require interpretation and proper positioning. Homes like this succeed when pricing, presentation, and timing are aligned.
Our system is built specifically for properties that are:
Below is the exact process we use.
Why the Previous Listing Didn’t Sell
Many homes don’t fail because of the property. They fail because of the launch.
Here’s what worked against the last attempt:
The takeaway is important: the prior result reflects timing and positioning, not a definitive rejection of value.
What Makes 1962 Montane Drive Stand Out
This is not an ordinary home, and the market needs to see that clearly.
Key differentiators include:
Our job is to make buyers feel the experience before they ever walk through the door.
Our Marketing System (and How We Reset the Narrative)
A. Pre-Marketing / Off-MLS Launch
This is the step most agents skip—and it’s why many premium homes stall.
Before the home ever goes live in the MLS, we syndicate it to the platforms buyers actually use:
This allows us to quietly test:
We learn where buyers see value before the DOM clock ever starts. This prevents overpricing, underpricing, and stale listings. It’s the Dolby Haas signature method.
B. Social Media Targeting
We build a layered campaign targeting:
Distribution includes:
The message is consistent, the creative is sharp, and momentum is intentional.
C. Broker-to-Broker Promotion
Many luxury homes sell through professional networks.
We directly promote your home to:
This ensures every serious agent with qualified buyers knows about the property early.
D. Weekly Analytics & Adjustments
You won’t be guessing where you stand.
You’ll receive weekly reporting on:
We adjust pricing and positioning based on real buyer behavior, not hope.
Proof of Performance
We have a long track record of record-setting and problem-solving sales across Evergreen and Conifer.
For example, in 2022, 28800 Stonecrop Trail closed at $2.7 million, one of the highest prices ever achieved in Conifer at the time. The difference wasn’t luck—it was product, presentation, and precise pricing.
That same approach applies here. We’re not just trying to “get it sold.” We’re aiming to put your home at the top of its competitive set.
