“EVERY SINGLE PROPERTY HAS A SOUL”

As an interior design specialist, REALTOR®️ Debby Caplin knows the nuances of Boulder’s market first-hand. Resonating the same values as milehimodern’s mission to “connect first” and discover each client’s story, Debby believes each dwelling has a story to tell. She remarks, “Every single property has a soul. And we find what is unique and special about each property.”

Debby’s interest in interior design originally led her to the University of Florida in Gainesville. “I have a bachelor’s degree in interior design. And so for me, that’s a big reason why I got into real estate. I know that when I walk into a home, I can see the potential because true interior design is not just putting throw pillows in somebody’s living room. You can figure out what walls to move and envision what it could be. That’s a real benefit to be able to convey to someone looking for or selling a home.”

In 2019, Debby started a career in real estate after she decided to close her popular retail shop in Boulder. “I wanted to find something where I could use all my skills. Real estate seemed like the best fit because it incorporated customer service, design, and being around people – all the things that I loved about my prior lives in design and retailing.”

Debby’s business is a dynamic one. In addition to working on growing her own business, she also works with John McElveen on new development projects. Her design background works well to add insight into floor plans, materials, and function prior to the construction phase and during the sales process. She also collaborates with her milehimodern colleagues, Lindsey Harshman in the Dakota Ridge area, as well as with Courtney Wentworth and Molly Stauffer in Table Mesa.

RATHER THAN COMPETING AGAINST ONE ANOTHER, WE WORK TOGETHER AND CLIENTS GET THE SERVICE AND EXPERTISE OF EACH OF US. EVERYBODY WINS.

“milehimodern’s motto is ‘better together’. Collaboration is key. Rather than competing against one another, we work together and clients get the service and expertise of each of us. Everybody wins.”

Twenty-four years ago, Debby left Miami, FL – a brave single mom seeking a safer place where her two children could grow up and thrive. The family of three chose Boulder as their new home and have never looked back. Debby’s children, Casey and Bailey, now 27 and 25 years old, loved their Colorado lifestyle and remain close to their mom.

“We still travel together. We try to take a big family trip every other year, usually, internationally. We like to explore art, new sites, and food… everyone is still talking about Greece!”

Debby also loves traveling with her boyfriend for live music in New Orleans and other exciting destinations, in addition to enjoying summer Red Rocks shows here at home. A trip to her alma mater to cheer on her beloved ‘Gators, is another of Debby’s favorite activities.

Her interest in travel and international culture has helped Debby cultivate a unique art collection. She loves and collects street art and other colorful statements from street artists around the world.

In Boulder, Debby is a friend to many. She can be spotted easily, sporting about town in her Mini-Cooper with Tonka, her 140 lb. Newfoundland in the passenger seat. “He’s my sidekick!”

Whether working with home buyers or sellers, Debby looks for what she can highlight to make sure the listings show authentically. “Every home has a soul. And we want to find that unique quality to highlight, not just simply list properties. We really try to make them stand out for what makes them unique and special.”

“milehimodern’s brand might lead some people to assume that we are only about modern luxury living, but it’s really about enacting a modern way of doing real estate.”
