Get to Know Me

Candice De

Real Estate Agent in Frisco, Breckenridge, Silverthorne, Dillon, and Keystone CO

My family and I moved to the mountains from Denver when my kids were three and one.

I had written on my goal sheet to teach my kids to ski without having to drive on I-70, and then COVID hit, and we started house hunting.

When we moved, I told Narendra I would give it a year, but I wanted the option to move back to Denver. After 6 months we fell in love with Frisco!

We love the lifestyle where our activities of hiking, biking, skiing and more are right outside our doors. But more importantly we love the small community and raising our kids where others share the same values.

MY REAL ESTATE CAREER

My foray into real estate commenced with the purchase of my grandmother’s home, where I first ventured into the world of house hacking.

Subsequently, I expanded my real estate portfolio by acquiring additional properties, unveiling the enduring potential of real estate as a viable long-term investment.

My first pregnancy led me to the idea of getting my real estate license, and then the second pregnancy I decided to flip a house in Denver during a pandemic. Hormones made me crazy, but I’ve learned a lot along the way.

Over my real estate journey, I’ve taken risks and learned some hard lessons from buying rentals, screening tenants, setting short term rental prices, and purchasing a house to flip. I bring both rewarding and hard lessons learned to my clients who are considering real estate investments.

With a track record of over $26M in real estate sales in the past 4 years, I’ve guided dozens of clients throughout the entire state of Colorado toward achieving their real estate goals. Since moving to Summit County, I have joined the Amy Nakos Group with Amy and our assistant Jennifer where together we are able to bring so much more to our clients.

Here Is What My Clients Have To Say About Me

“Candice is an ultimate professional and her expertise, as well as the expertise of Amy, Jennifer and the entire Your Castle Summit team, were paramount in helping us close our dream house in Summit County. AAA+ Would highly recommend to anyone looking to make a home purchase in Summit County!”

Ian O.

Summit County, CO

“Working with Candice was a dream! Our situation got a little sticky when we changed lenders mid-contract, and she was extremely responsive and helpful. As a Frisco resident and member of the Frisco planning commission, she has a lot of insight into the local market. And as a realtor with a civil engineering background, she had an educated opinion on some structural work we intend to do, and was also able to hook us up with a top-notch architect. We would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

Kathy K.

Frisco CO

“Candice made our first-time home-buying experience a fun, seamless process! She understood what we were looking for and was able to help us understand the market at the time. This led to us not only having a house that perfectly fit our needs but also under asking price! As a Colorado native, Candice was very knowledgeable about the Denver metro area and observed firsthand which areas grew and changed over time, ultimately easing our nerves and helping us understand the long term prospects of the investment. We are also very appreciative of the network of individuals Candice was able to put us in touch with to help with all other aspects of the process. The whole experience was simple, and we always felt like Candice was in our court and making recommendations that best represented our needs. I’d highly recommend her for any of your real estate needs!”

Erin J.

Denver CO

“Candice guided us through the complex process of both selling a hundred year old bungalow in Denver, and purchasing new construction in Louisville, with the need for post close occupancy in between to make the timing work. She was a steady hand in in every phase, from preparing the bungalow for a successful sale, negotiating, dealing with a challenging inspection process, and then managing the builder / customization for the new home purchase. She is organized, well researched, sharp, and just a pleasure to work with on a personal level. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

Josh R.

Denver Metro

“Candice is a detailed and careful realtor who does an excellent job anticipating her clients needs and always delivers! Thoroughly recommend.”

Stephanie H.

“Candice and team were absolutely wonderful to work with! On behalf of my husband he would rate them A#1!!!”
