TEN QUESTIONS / ONE BROKER
SCOTT LEGGETT
What’s the Slifer Denver culture like: It starts with fun. Mix in professional, competent, confident, caring, giving, sharing, helping, and driven and you pretty much have it. We hear you’re working on designing your dream house… Tell us more. Well, it all starts with the stilts. Our lot is very close to Boulder Creek, about 50 feet away, and therefore is in the flood plain. The only way to build there is to elevate the house at least four feet, so I’m thinking six would be about right. It will make for an interesting look with house floating over the four to five foot tall prairie grass. The best part about the house is the architect we’re working with, our son Nic. He’s an incredible designer and we are having lots of fun stirring around different ideas and looks. It will be very unique, I guarantee that. READ ENTIRE INTERVIEW... www.sliferdenver.com/blog/
