On June 25th 2025, in collaboration with Open Folk, we presented our first ever live interview event in Los Angeles. As Open Folk put it: "In These Lines is a live event where three artists each bring one song — not just to perform, but to explore. They sit down with Sofia Loporcaro, host of Before The Chorus, to talk about where the song came from, what it meant to write it, and what it still holds. Then they play it. Just the song, and the truth behind it."

Before a song is released, a record is produced, or a chorus is written, the musicians that write them think. A lot. They live. A lot. And they feel. A LOT. Hosted by award-winning interviewer Sofia Loporcaro, Before the Chorus explores the genuine human experiences behind the music. Sofia’s deep knowledge of music and personal journey with mental health help her connect with artists on a meaningful level. This is a space where fans connect with artists, and listeners from all walks of life feel seen through the stories that shape the music we love. About the host: Sofia Loporcaro is an award-winning interviewer and radio host who’s spent over 8 years helping musicians share their stories. She’s hosted shows for Amazing Radio, and Transmission Roundhouse. Now on Before the Chorus, she’s had the chance to host guests like Glass Animals, Feist, Madison Cunningham, Mick Jenkins, & Ru Paul's Drag Race winner Shea Couleé. Learn more about your ad choices.

Fly it Forward with Karen S. Schaefer Twenty Four Years ago I had an experience that would forever change the way I see the world. I knew I was to bring a message to the world but I pushed it down deep. Life gets in the way and 24 years can pass in an instant. But, God is patient and if you are meant to walk a path, to make an impact and share your vision with the world, your dream doesn't leave you. It just burns year after year until it becomes an inferno and you can no longer contain the flame. So today, we fan the flames and together, turn our vision into reality. Let's fly!

If we were on ‘Jeopardy!’, that would be my answer. Do you know the question? If you guessed “Should I sell my home this year?” The answer is “HECK YES!” Nearly every day, I get a call from one of my clients or their friends or family members and they ask me the million- dollar question. “Is this a good time to sell my home?” HECK YES! No one knows what this market will do over the next year or so, or if the rates will increase. But what I can tell you is, TODAY, the prices have never been higher, and we have never seen a stronger pool of buying power due to historically low interest rates. There is currently 57% less inventory than last year at this time and the Buyers are purchasing it twice as fast for a higher price. Ultimately, only you and your family know when it’s the right time to sell. And, if you want to give me a call to discuss your options and pricing, I would be glad to sit with you and evaluate the details, no strings attached. If you do decide to sell this year, Pete and I will be right there with you. “HECK YES!” To Learn more about this Topic and ask Karen at Peak Price Colorado direct questions: O: (719) 540-6459 C: (719) 244-3420 E: KarenSchaefer@ReMax.net W: PeakPriceColorado.com Do you like the show?

Open Houses for Charity Hey everyone! Welcome back to another episode of On the Treadmill with Karen Property Marketing and Home Selling Secrets. I’m Karen Schaefer with RE/Max Properties and Peak Price Colorado and I’m glad you are here! One of my goals in Real Estate is to continually find fun and unique ways to contribute to the local community while serving my clients. A few years back, I started incorporating Open House Events with a local Charity or cause that my clients support. I simply married the theme of the Open Houses with a Charity. Here a few of my favorites: 1. Food Bank donation during the Holidays – this one works great during certain times of the year. 2. A "Sock Drive for the Homeless" during the colder months. Here’s how it works, new home buyers come the Open House and bring a new pair of socks to donate. I add another pair to match the donation. We ended up donating a couple hundred pairs of socks during a time of year when they are badly needed. 3. Donate to a local family in need. Often times, you’ll find a family in the area that could use some help or support. Hosting Open Houses in combination with a local Charity or cause draws people in and makes them feel great about participating and contributing.” Find more Property Marketing and Home Selling Secrets on my Facebook page www.Facebook.com/PeakPriceColoradoHomes - please like and share for more info about Selling your Southern Colorado property in Teller or El Paso County To Learn more about this Topic and ask Karen at Peak Price Colorado direct questions: O: (719) 540-6459 C: (719) 244-3420 E: KarenSchaefer@ReMax.net W: PeakPriceColorado.com Do you like the show?

How many homes are actually on the market right now in Teller and El Paso Counties? Hi Everyone! Welcome to another episode of ‘On the Treadmill with Karen.’ I’m Karen Schaefer with Peak Price Colorado at RE/MAX Properties, Inc. This weekend, I had a friend, who is thinking of selling her home, ask me exactly how many homes are on the market right now. It’s a loaded question as you can divide this in so many ways such as price, location, type of structure and so on. But to answer her question, I did a search of the most desirable and sought after segment which is an existing home with a wood frame and between the price of $300-$500K. This means, I did not include things like new builds, townhomes or manufactured homes. Having said that, in Woodland Park, there are 12. In the Ute Pass, including GMF, Cascade and Chipita Park, there are 4 and this one really surprises me but in Colorado Springs, there are 76. Considering we have total population between these areas of just under 500,000 in Colorado Springs, over 8,000 in Woodland Park and another couple of thousand around the Ute Pass area that means we have 92 listings serving nearly 510,000 people! In case you are wondering, that isn’t very many. As a matter of fact, it is down right scarce! So what does this mean? Well, for Sellers, it still means it’s a Sellers market. Things are priced high and still moving quickly so don’t fall prey to those discount agents that try to convince you that your home is worth less than you can actually get. And for Buyers it means you need to be prepared. Work with your agent to get to the right homes first and leave the questionable ones as plan b. Be flexible when making offers. Depending upon the home and the area, talk to your agent about the possibility of multiple offers and how to win. There are various strategies beyond price such as accommodating the sellers deadlines or post rent back, quick closing, minimal inspection items and the list goes on. A savvy agent will coach you on the different terms to compete. Don’t be afraid and don’t throw in the towel. The right home in Woodland Park, Colorado Springs or the Ute Pass is out there and waiting for you but it’s just a different kind of game. Thanks for joining me everyone! Have a great day and I will see you next week for the next episode of Property Marketing and Home Selling Secrets with Karen S. Schaefer.

The ONE thing you must do to successfully market your home There are a million things that can be a part of the marketing campaign for your Teller County or El Paso County home but the biggest happens before you ever put your home on the market. It’s called a pre-marketing campaign. What’s that? It’s when a smart agent gets your home out to the public, in a legal and ethical way, in order to market your home before it ever comes on the market. This pre-marketing campaign creates excitement, anticipation, and desire. And, I think the best 3 methods of doing a pre-campaign in the Teller County or El Paso County markets are: 1) An online preview video showcasing your home. 2) An announcement to the neighborhood and an invite to a nosy neighbor Open House. 3) Professional photos used as teasers leading up to the listing. And there are an abundance more tips on getting your home pre-marketed, listed and sold all of which we will cover on further episodes of On the Treadmill with Karen.…
My neighbor told me to paint my house pink. Have you ever performed your own surgery while your mailman consulted? Replaced your car engine while your hairdresser was on call for advice? Or Prepped a seven course meal for world leaders with Oscar Meyer on stand by? Then why on earth would you take advice on fixing up and selling your home from someone who doesn’t know what they are doing? I always think taking advice on selling your home from someone is like accepting advice from them on trading stocks. When they recommend a stock, the first question should be; “How many shares do you own?" There are 3 things to consider when someone gives you advice on selling your home. 1) How many Homes have they sold? 2) Run the Numbers 3) What is your gut telling you? So the next time someone offers you advice on selling your Southern Colorado home… ask your gut if their feedback is qualified!

There are pros and cons to getting your home pre-inspected before you put it on the market. A pre-inspection cause sometimes can be less detailed than an actual inspection. It's because maybe the seller didn't order radon testing or meth testing or mold testing or lead-based paint testing or, or any of those things. So maybe that's less detailed than what you would want as a buyer. We get used to those things; we forget about them. Sometimes it allows a seller to fix things initially and sometimes more cost effectively.

#EveryBoxCounts was sparked by all the boxes me and my husband, Pete, were getting delivered every day. At first, we would use them to ship other things or for packing, but there were just so many! What should we be doing with all these boxes? Well, Pete owns a storage unit business and I am a Real Estate Agent. Both of our clients use boxes every day! And we are constantly getting deliveries so... we had an Edison moment and a light bulb went off! We could provide a FREE service to all of our clients and really anyone in El Paso or Teller Counties!
