HOPEFULLY, the clouds will clear tonight (in Denver) to view the total eclipse!    The moon will be in the deepest portion of the Earth's shadow and the total eclipse will begin in earnest.    See the Super Flower Moon and a "Blood Moon" eclipse, these will coincide with the total lunar eclipse for most of North America.Get your telescope out, and enjoy the eclipse tonight between 9 pm and 10:30 (mountain time).

Colorado has been a State that may have wanted to relocate to for years.    Our population has grown tremendously over the last few years.   I think it started when recreational marijuana was legalized and just continued.   We have very low humidity, low unemployment, and people can enjoy the outdoors all year-round.   We do have good weather even in the winter!Last year Denver was #3, so think our home values must have had a factor in this chart!    We are now #5.   Here are the rest of the top ten. Here is Colorado Association of REALTORS® info for Buyers on how the State of Colorado is doing -  I work the entire Denver metro area, so if you have questions on home values, give me a call!

This beautiful multi-level home went on the market and within a day, had multiple showings, and got multiple offers.    There was an exceptional offer that came in prior to the "deadline", but the seller had reserved the right to accept any offer prior to the deadline.   This was the case - it was exceptional with all the terms the Seller wanted.Listed at $625,000Square Footage - 1651 finished above ground, 621 in the basement 95% finishedBuilt in 1975Three bedrooms, three bathroomsTwo-car garageLot size - 7,953 sfNeighborhood - Columbine WestJefferson County Schools - Dutch Creek Elementary, Ken Caryl Middle School and Columbine High School  Home is Listed by Laura Erwin, so if you would like more details on this home, or other properties - give her a call.    303-353-8251

Greenfield is located in Centennial, with some of this neighborhood in the City of Aurora.    It is located off Arapahoe Road & Picadilly in the South part of the Metro Denver area.   It is located in Cherry Creek School District, which is just one reason this neighborhood is popular! I like to stay on top of the statistics for the community, and nice to review the numbers every month, or at least every quarter.   Most months there are just one or two sales.  For April 2022, there were four sales.     For this size of the neighborhood, we don't usually see many homes go up for sale in Greenfield or Greenfield Estates.    Here is how April 2022 fared: 4 properties sold priced at $760,000 to $925,000 Average Days in MLS were 4 days  Sellers saw 104.12% to list price    (last month 115.12%...

The stats are out for the month of April, and all the numbers revolve around the increase in interest rates.    With the 1% increase it priced out a few first-time buyers, and some buyers opted out when they couldn't get what they wanted.   This slowed the market, but not drastically.   The inventory climbed about a 1/3 for the month of April, as most weekends in March we saw 2,000 or less.   April's high hit 3,200 for one weekend.    This data is courtesy of Joan Cox - House to Home, Inc. I track data daily for the Denver metro area, and are seeing around 550 price reductions every week (to 3,000 listings) and around 200 homes returning to market in a week's period of time.   Both of these numbers have been steadily increasing daily. See what homes are currently available - Active Home...

  Over the years, I have seen many reasons homeowners think about moving.    Are you one of these? - There is a baby on the way.    Need another room on the same level as the master bedroom?- You just started a home-based business.    Now you need an office on the main level for possible clients.   Or, you are now working from home permanently?-  You and your family are bursting the seams of your home and would like the additional square footage.-  All the kids have grown and gone, and now you have way too much square footage.-  Your kids have returned home and now they have kids, and need more space. -  You have the opportunity to accept a job position in another state. Rates are moving around, but still low.    Take a look at what the new mortgage payment will do to your monthly house...

 Buyer - The Sellers have two layers of roofing (one shake shingles and the other asphalt composite), and have never heard of this.     Is this legal?    How will this affect my homeowner's insurance?   Will this be an issue for us down the road?    The Seller says she had no problem obtaining insurance.  You will sometimes find two layers of shingles on a roof, however, today's code says there can be only one layer in Denver.     The next time there are repairs made, the roof must be torn off, and one layer installed.    Having two different types of roofing is a different situation.    I definitely recommend calling your insurance agent, as this is a different situation. Upon calling different insurance companies - new homeowners can obtain a policy excluding the roof, or obtain a wri...

 The Town of Larkspur is located 40 miles south of Denver and West of I-25.   The town was incorporated in 1979 and today is known for the Renaissance Festival held every year in Larkspur and the Yogi Bear's Jellystone Campground.   Most homes in Larkspur are on lots of one acre or more and surrounded by trees.   You will see lots of wildlife - deer, mountain lions, bears (brown & black), fox, coyotes and lots of birds.  Going to the grocery store will require a trip to Castle Rock, and depending on where in the town you live, it could be 15 minutes.   There isn't much in the "town", but a gas station, post office, three restaurants, and of course two golf courses with restaurants.   Bear Dance Golf Course is closer to I-25, and Perry Park Golf Course is on the West side of town. The po...

Hello from Crested Butte,   The scarcity is real around these parts. If you are shopping our market currently you are aware of the limited inventory situation. There are only 27 homes listed for sale throughout the Upper Valley marketplace ranging from the low end for a 1971-built house in Mt. Crested Butte listed at $1.575 million to the top of our market for a 9,169 SF mansion listed for just under $10 million at Skyland.   Right now, only 17 condos and townhouses are listed for sale ranging from the low end for a $162 thousand Grand Lodge condo-tel unit at the ski resort to a brand new duplex unit located in the town of Crested Butte listed for sale at $2.685 million. I believe this is the first time in our history we have more homes than condos on the market.   Year-to-date we've w...
