About Sean & Debbie Larkin
Sean and Debbie are seasoned real estate professionals who truly believe their value to their clients has to be earned every day and know that the reputation they keep is only as good as their last client’s experience. “Our commitment to our clients’ needs and welfare is all that lasts when the job is completed. Our successes don’t mean anything until the clients know they can trust us and we always aim to never let them down. We are committed to never taking our clients’ sacred bond of trust for granted. Our philosophy of business is to exceed our client’s expectations.”
Sean and Debbie have never believed that they can best service their clients by specializing in a single segment of the market but rather adapting to the changing market conditions and needs of their clients. Their business has been almost exclusively referral and repeat clients for many years. The formula that has led to their success is an extensive knowledge of current market conditions and listening closely to what their clients are ultimately trying to achieve. Whether it’s representing buyers to find that “perfect” home in the perfect neighborhood to listing and marketing a seller’s home, the goal remains the same – helping their clients achieve their goals.
After graduating from the University of Rhode Island and attaining a Master’s in Education from Boston University, Debbie returned to her native roots of Colorado to teach special education. However, Real Estate was in her blood and she embarked on creating a successful Real Estate career in 2001. Raised in Colorado, Sean is a proud Graduate of Creighton University, Marquette University and the University of Denver. Prior to working with Debbie, Sean spent 10 years working as a Civil Engineer for a local Colorado Company. Debbie’s successes led to new opportunities and Sean left engineering to help Debbie leverage her opportunities in 2005. “I never expected to find such enjoyment in a career. Our successes are always our client’s successes and I look forward to meeting these lofty aspirations in the future.” Their diverse educational and professional experiences only enhance their expertise.
With over two decades of combined real estate experience, the Larkin team are full service brokers who stay up on market trends and the latest technology to make transactions and communication with clients seamless. Sean and Debbie have been recognized in the Denver Metro area by The Denver Business Journal in the “Who’s Who in Denver Business” issue and Million Dollar Round Table awards. “We feel it is important to know the market and listen to buyers, sellers fellow brokers in order to adapt a marketing strategy specific to each individual party and property.”
Sean and Debbie live in Cherry Hills and have two children, Kaitlin and Connor. Having children themselves, and working with numerous families with young children has made them extraordinarily knowledgeable about the various school systems in the Denver area. They welcome the opportunity to discuss a family’s educational goals simultaneously to their wants and needs in terms of a new home.
