I had the pleasure of working with Renee Cohen on the sale of a property that, by any measure, presented real challenges: a distinctive, luxury home in a unique location, priced at the top of the market. Previous realtors had tried and come up short. Renee stepped in and did what none of them could — she sold it.

But what set Renee apart wasn't just the result. It was how she got there. From the moment she took over, she brought an uncommon combination of professionalism, warmth, and tenacity. She assessed the property with fresh eyes, coordinated the right fixes and staging, and — in a move that I think made a real difference — arranged for an energy healer to clear and reset the space, preparing it not just physically but spiritually for the right buyer to make it their own.

Renee brings something to real estate that most agents simply don't have: she listens. Her background as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker comes through in everything she does — she's attuned to people, reads a room, and knows how to advocate with grace and persuasion rather than pressure.

That same quality showed up in how she handled the other side of the table. Working with a buyer's agent — and at times a challenging buyer — Renee never lost her composure or her collaborative spirit. She approached every friction point as a problem to solve rather than a battle to win, consistently finding common ground and keeping the deal moving forward. She protected our interests as the seller while never burning bridges, and that balance is rarer than it sounds.

She worked with class and dignity throughout a process that could have easily become frustrating, and she never lost her hustle. If you are looking for a Denver-area realtor who will work harder, think differently, and bring her whole self to your transaction, I recommend Renee Cohen without hesitation.

Let me set the scene. Recent widow. Late husband was a Sotheby's broker in Illinois. I know the vocabulary, I know the process, and I have opinions. Loud ones. I am, by every measurable standard, a seller's worst nightmare dressed in a reasonable outfit. Add the 2025 spring market, which was not exactly a seller's paradise, and add Dave's voice in my head. Not because I did not know what to do. Because I was doing it without him for the first time. That is a different kind of hard. A close friend, the kind of person who solves problems the way other people breathe, told me to call Renee Cohen. Her exact logic was that it takes one to know one. She was right. I came in hot. I priced too high. Renee told me the truth anyway. She did not hedge, she did not flatter me into a bad decision, and she did not let me stay comfortable when comfortable was costing me money. She recalibrated, rebuilt the strategy, and stayed completely invested through every pivot. Here is what you do not expect and what you absolutely cannot fake. Renee looked at me and saw a person, not a transaction. She understood from the first meeting that this sale was not just a sale. It was the first major thing I was doing on the other side of my marriage. She held that with care and still delivered like a professional who plays to win. Then there is my 16-year old daughter. Selling your home as a teenager who already lost her father is its own kind of grief. This process hijacked our entire summer. Renee knew that. She brought Raleigh in, made her feel included, made her feel seen, and quietly helped carry some of the weight that teenagers should not have to carry alone. That is not in any job description. Renee just did it. The bat signals did not stop at closing. She answered every single one. Questions, concerns, the random 9pm thoughts that only make sense when you are processing something enormous. She showed up every time. Renee Cohen will never just be my agent in Colorado. She will always be the person who helped me through one of the hardest chapters of my life and did it with skill, honesty, and genuine heart.

Working with Renee Cohen to purchase our first home was an incredible experience. From start to finish, Renee made the process smooth and stress-free. She took the time to understand our needs, patiently guided us through each step, and ensured we were well-informed throughout. We always felt confident that Renee had our best interests at heart, and her expertise and genuine care made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner in this exciting journey and are so grateful for her support and knowledge that led us to our dream home.

Renee was amazing! We seemed to have some weird and difficult luck in the home buying process and we couldn’t have survived it without Renee. As first time buyers, she advocated for us and kept everything organized and on track. We always recommend her to people looking for a realtor. She truly cares and spent so much time answering all our questions and helping us feel confident in our decisions. We were in good hands from the moment we started searching to the moment we closed. When we sell our home or whenever we decide to buy again, we’re definitely contacting Renee!

Renee Cohen Is a fantastic Realtor! She listens, is extremely well organized, and has significant experience that proved helpful every step of the way in selling our home and buying a new one. Every night during the process I was able to tell my wife “take a deep breath, Renee is on it!” and that is truly how I felt. I highly recommend using Renee to help you buy and/or sell your home. She is top-notch every step of the way!!!!!

Renee is the absolute best. I cannot recommend her enough. My husband and I used Renee to find our starter home 8 years ago, and then recently again to help us sell that and find our forever home. We were able to purchase both of our homes for amazing prices and put our best foot forward with strong offers. When we sold our last home we had a record number of offers within days and easily sold above asking price. Even at the beginning of our journey when our budget was low, we always felt like a priority to her. Renee is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, RESPONSIVE and easy to work with. We felt extremely confident having her on our side, and she made the home-buying process fun. She has always had our best interests at heart, and has continued to stay in touch over the years to make sure everything is to our satisfaction. She has a very obvious passion for her career and it shows in every interaction.

Renee is outstanding! She responds to all dimensions of engaging with the real estate market. She is knowledgeable about the market and how to time it; she is realistic and clear in her communications; she is kind and patient with the emotions that always attend the sale or purchase of a home. I would not think of working with anyone besides Renee and we refer her to everyone with real estate needs She and her team are highly responsive and professional - the best in Denver!

We have had a fantastic experience using Renee in both of our Denver metro house buying adventures. Renee was able to hear our wants and needs for a living space and area of town. Buying a house is an emotional experience and she gave professional, calm and knowledgeable input about the houses we looked at. Renee was caring and fun to work with. We bought our latest house just as Covid-19 was ramping up. Renee used all necessary precautions in making sure the homes were safe to view. I highly recommend her services and will use her again if the need arises!

Buying a home with Renee was an absolute pleasure. She took the time to understand my wants/needs and helped me to remain calm and patient in the crazy real estate market that exists in Denver, CO! I've been in my home thoroughly enjoying the location for four years now. I will absolutely be a repeat customer the next time I'm in the market for real estate!!

Working with Renee was a huge blessing. She is professional, personable, and thorough. Renee listened to what was important to us, and helped us stay true to our own “vision” for what we were looking for in a new home as we searched and looked at many houses. We have now purchased two homes and sold one, with Renee’s help. I would recommend working with Renee to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Renee has helped my family buy and sell four houses in very challenging markets. Renee advocates for her clients, helping them navigate the issues that arise throughout the process. She and her team take great care of the whole family, making us feel a part of theirs. Highly recommend.

Renee is the best! We have bought and sold several properties over the years and she is the most conscientious, profesional, responsive, attentive, and hard working agent we have ever work with by far. She gets to know your needs and what your seeking in buying a new property. She follows through on every detail from start to finish. Whether you're buying or selling, we highly recommend Renee.

Renee is amazing! She helped us purchase our first home and we will never look for another realtor in Denver again! She was attentive and listened, and she held our hand and walked us through every step until we closed. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and we trusted her judgement and expertise every step of the way. We cannot recommend Renee enough!

Renee is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and just as important she is caring and personable. She gets to know you and what you are looking/hoping for and she doesn't place any pressure. She comes alongside you as an advocate and helps you feel heard. Buying and selling a home is one of the biggest decisions and it was important to us that we feel confident in the process and Renee really made that possible. We have stayed in touch in the years since working with her and have referred others to her. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Renee is absolutely the best to work with. She’s incredibly professional, organized, kind and efficient! I wouldn’t buy a house with anyone else!

Renee helped us sell our starter home and find our perfect home nearly 8 years ago. We have referred several friends to her who all rave about the personalized service they received. Renee is a great listener and is clearly committed to helping each seller and buyer until they find exactly what they are looking for. Thanks Renee!

Positive: Professionalism We have bought two homes with Renee as our realtor. She made what could have been a stressful experience both fun and easy. I especially appreciated her professional approach to the pandemic. We put our townhouse up for sale in February and bought our new house in April. Renee took the social distancing guidelines seriously. We felt very safe throughout the whole process. We almost feel like selling our house so we can work with Renee again.
