May I take a moment, and pose a question?

If you were SELLING YOUR PROPERTY, do you believe that it would sell for a fixed price,

or do you believe it would sell in a price range based on marketing,

level of exposure, and the strategy and negotiation skills of your sales associate?

   *  It can be easy to assume that all real estate brokerages and sales associates are the same.

   *  Many individuals look to do the minimum.  However, I personally, along with LIV Sotheby’s, are the alternative.

   *  The truth is, we are different – and some of us, very different.

   *  We differentiate ourselves in the way we conduct business and market properties.

   *  Market exposure matters.    Negotiation and sales skills matter.

     Our extensive networks matter, our affiliations matter, and the LIV Sotheby’s rich brand heritage matters.

     Being different isn’t for everyone, but to us, it’s everything!

Meet Arn Rasker

LIV Sotheby's Real Estate Professional in Boulder, Colorado

Professional Background

Boulder has been an important part of my life since I first came to the University of Colorado to study Mechanical Engineering and Business. Over the years, I have developed a deep knowledge of Boulder and the surrounding area—not only its neighborhoods and real estate market, but also the construction, development, and lifestyle considerations that make this community unique.

As a top-producing Boulder real estate broker, I work with both buyers and sellers and bring a practical, well-rounded perspective to every transaction. My approach is client-focused: provide clear information, anticipate issues, communicate consistently, and negotiate thoughtfully from start to finish.

Before entering real estate, I served as President and General Manager of ReNové Construction, Inc., a Boulder-based commercial and luxury custom home construction company. I have designed, engineered, built, restored, and renovated homes throughout Boulder, including significant projects in the Mapleton Hill Historic District.

That construction background gives my clients an additional level of insight when evaluating a property, preparing a home for sale, considering renovations, or understanding Boulder’s often complex building and development requirements. It also helps me identify opportunities and potential concerns that may not be immediately obvious.

For sellers, I combine market knowledge with an understanding of how buyers evaluate a home. That perspective helps guide preparation, positioning, presentation, and marketing. For buyers, I can help assess not only location and value, but also a property's condition, potential, and longer-term considerations.

I am affiliated with LIV Sotheby’s International Realty and supported by an experienced network of real estate professionals, contractors, lenders, appraisers, title professionals, insurance providers, and inspectors. My goal is to make each transaction as informed, organized, and efficient as possible.

Personal Background

I have always been an explorer and enjoy connecting with people from different places and backgrounds. I have lived in Canada, Nederland, Costa Rica, Mexico, Spain, and the United States, and I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Dutch.

Outside of real estate, I enjoy hiking, mountaineering, skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, travel, and cooking. I share those interests with my wife, Roseann, our son, Anders, our daughter, Kasia, and her husband, Cody.

Whether you are returning to Boulder after many years, relocating here for the first time, or finally making a longtime dream of living in Boulder a reality, I would be pleased to help you understand the market, explore your options, and make a confident decision.
