"Steve was great to work with through the entire process. He was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had during the process. He was open and honest about what our expectations should be in the market we were selling in and how we should prepare the house. He did a great job of getting photos, staging the house for us, marketing the house, and getting the word out locally. His hard work culminated in an offer coming the day before it went on the market that we accepted. I would highly recommend Steve to any of my friends and family. I don't think you will find a better realtor to help you."

Beyond the 5-star ratings for local knowledge, process expertise, responsiveness, and negotiation skills, he wa..."

"One of the best! We have bought and sold 6 homes over the years, which has given us experience with 12 agents in 5 states. Steve, our 13th agent, is at the top of our list of agents and one of two agents we’d go back to in a heartbeat. Beyond the 5-star ratings for local knowledge, process expertise, responsiveness, and negotiation skills, he was extremely patient in helping us transition to the state and its unique local characteristics that were very new to us. Each place is different in culture, and each state is different in how it manages real estate, and Steve understood this challenge and helped us through the transition. You won’t be disappointed if you call Steve."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with John Simmons, Steve Baumgaertner, and John’s Business Manager, Tiffany Breitbarth of C3 Real Estate Solutions, to sell our home during what has been one of the most challenging real estate markets in the past 30 years. From start to finish, their professionalism, experience, and dedication were evident in every step of the process. One of the main reasons we chose John and Steve was their distinguished military service as Army Rangers. The discipline, leadership, and work ethic they developed in the Army were clearly reflected in their approach to real estate. Their ability to handle complex situations, remain calm under pressure, and always put their clients' best interests first sets them apart from others in the industry. John and Steve brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table, helping us navigate market complexities with confidence. Their integrity and honesty were always front and center-they provided straightforward advice, set realistic expectations, and advocated for our best interests throughout the sale. Tiffany’s organizational skills and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of our transaction ran smoothly, keeping us informed and on track at all times. What truly set this team apart was their outstanding marketing acumen. Their creative strategies and deep understanding of the market helped our home stand out, attracting the right buyers even in a tough climate. We felt like a priority at every step, and their communication was always prompt and clear. We highly recommend John Simmons, Steve Baumgaertner, and Tiffany Breitbarth to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their experience, integrity, and commitment to their clients are unmatched. Thank you, C3 Real Estate, for delivering results and making this process as smooth as possible."

His knowledge of the Northern Colorado real estate market is unmatched, not just at a regional level, but down to individual neighborhoods, blocks, and even specific homes. He has a rare ability to identify the unique features that make a house..."

"Steve was beyond amazing. “Incredible” doesn’t even begin to capture the level of service he provided. His knowledge of the Northern Colorado real estate market is unmatched, not just at a regional level, but down to individual neighborhoods, blocks, and even specific homes. He has a rare ability to identify the unique features that make a house truly special, or spot red flags that others might miss. Thanks to Steve’s guidance, insight, and tenacity, we ended up in a dream home we never thought would be within reach. He advocated for us every step of the way and made what could have been an overwhelming process feel smooth and even exciting. We can’t imagine having gone through this without him. If you’re buying or selling in Northern Colorado, Steve is the one you want on your side."
