The Denver West Market Center of Keller Williams Realty (300 Union Blvd., Suite 500, Lakewood) announced that Realtor Robyn Phipps has joined its team.

Having been in real estate for five years, Phipps joined Keller Williams from Coldwell Banker. With Coldwell Banker, she was designated as a Previews Property Specialist, having met the requirements of selling a minimum of luxury properties over $600,000. Phipps is currently working toward the e-Pro designation, an Internet certification through the National Association of Realtors. She is also active in the PTA of Sierra Elementary, a school within Jefferson County Public Schools.

"I appreciate the Keller Williams model, where the agents take an active role in the leadership and growth of the company," commented Phipps. "Keller Williams leads the way in incorporating new technologies-specifically the Internet emphasis-which is so crucial in real estate today. Lastly, the training and leadership contributed greatly to my decision to join the company."

Phipps specializes in real estate in the cities of Arvada, Wheat Ridge, Golden and Lakewood. Her focus is in first time, investment, second home and relocation buyers, with a special emphasis on helping growing families settle into new homes.

"Robyn will be an excellent asset to our team," said Sue Vencill, Team Leader for the Denver West Market Center. "Her knowledge of Jefferson County schools from her own family will help other growing families find homes in the Denver West area."
