Thank you to Core Title in Canon City for providing the collection site for Oklahoma City school donations of hats, scarves and gloves.  Dear Friends and Community Members, I’m reaching out to share an important need and ask for your support. My sister works as a sign language interpreter at an inner-city high school in Oklahoma City, where many of the students face difficult circumstances. The school will soon be receiving a generous donation of coats and blankets—items that are desperately needed. However, these students are still in need of hats, gloves, and scarves to stay warm through the coming winter. If you are able to help by donating new or gently used hats, gloves, or scarves, your kindness would make a meaningful difference. I am currently arranging a local collection site, ...

Looking Back on 20 Years as a RealtorBy Dena Stevens, Realtor® | Rocky Mountain RealtyDear Friends and Clients,As I celebrate my 20th year as a licensed real estate agent and begin my 21st, I find myself reflecting on how much has changed—not just in real estate, but in life. When I started this journey in May 2004, the world was a different place: TV shows like House and Lost were brand new Dancing With the Stars hadn’t aired yet Interest rates were about 5.8% The average home price in Southern Colorado was around $236,000 20 Years of Real Estate Experience: HighlightsHere are just some of the things I’ve had the pleasure (and sometimes the challenge!) of doing as a Realtor over the past two decades:🏡 Homes and Properties Sold homes ranging from 400 square feet to over 6,000 square fee...

  Updated post. Previously published. I've been blogging on Active Rain since 2006, and it just hit me—I’ve never actually answered one of the most common questions I get:"How do you pronounce Cañon City?"Simple—it's pronounced Canyon City.Cañon City is the seat of Fremont County and the largest city in the area, with a population hovering between 16,000 and 17,000. But here’s where it gets a little interesting—why is it spelled that way? Some say it’s a nod to Spanish influence, while others think it might’ve been a misspelling. Since no one was around filming history back then, we may never know for sure. Ask five people, and you’ll probably get five different answers.Locals and long-timers usually just call it Cañon and drop the “City” altogether.Now, let’s talk about the neighbors: ...

Real Estate agents are people too! We have families, make dinner, have to walk the dogs and bury our loved ones. When a client calls making requests or making demands I try my best to accommodate them. This weekend somebody I cared for passed away. I came upon the crash and it took me a minute to see that I knew people in the car. When I explained to a calling client I was busy, somebody passed he said: "I'm sorry but..." He wanted me to accommodate him and his needs without considering I had immediate needs even after I told him it was a bad time. Our agreement has ended. And if I have reason to speak to him again I will but it's going to be difficult to do with a smile on my face. Rest in Peace "Pops"

This is my real estate page. I talk about real estate here. And real estate is so much more than helping people buy or sell properties. Did you know that the Real Estate Commission is set up to protect the public? Did you know that the association of Realtors and the MLS are 2 different boards?   I am on the local MLS board. I go to a meeting at least once a month, sometimes there are multiple meetings a month. Today's meeting was just over 3 hours. I volunteer to do this - I don't get paid for getting up early and sitting in what may be a long boring meeting. There are no donuts there, no coffee. A dozen or so agents, appraisers and association staff gather to make sure we are self-regulating and doing the right thing for our community.   If you are working with or hiring a real estat...

 One of the most unusual lots in the Canon City area. This flag lot would give this HDR , multi-family lot, privacy. Your friends may have a hard time finding you because it's surrounded by multifamily houses. Contact Fremont County Zoning or Canon City governments for more details about the possibilities. Near the intersection of 15th Street and Washington, less than a mile North of the fire station. Ask about the neighboring lot, 1380 Washington Street. www.realestatecoloradostyle.com Dena Stevens Realtor 719 315-5050 Rocky Mountain Realty LLC Canon City, Penrose, Florence, Cotopaxi & Fremont county information http://www.realestatecoloradostyle.com For free no obligation listings to be sent to your email: http://www.realestatecoloradostyle.co...

I've been blogging on Active Rain since 2006 and it has never, ever occured to me to answer the question I get asked often."How you you pronounce the name Canon City?" The name of the Fremont County seat and largest city is Canon City. Pronounce it "Canyon"  Population between 16,000 - 17,000. There is some debate why the name is spelled the way it is. Is Can~on City written with a Spanish influence or was it a misspelling? Since nobody was there video taping the history of the town we will probably never really know. So the answer is subject to whom you ask. Locals, natives and those of us that are simi-native simply say "Canon" and delete the "City" part of the name. Fremont County also has a "Florence" a small town of almost 4000 people. Approx 8 miles from Canon City. Known as "The ...

American author Zane Grey wrote epic Western Novels. Avid readers still read his works today. He brought the “real West” to life. And I get regular phone calls from his readers. His fans want to live in the real West. The horses, the sunsets, the drama, the self reliance, the integrity and the joy.Fremont County lives by The Code of the West inspired by Zane Grey. http://www.fremontco.com/dot/codeofthewest.shtml It’s funny to me how many potential buyers contact me and tell me this is the life they want then go into great detail about what else they expect. They want to grow vegetables, raise Jersey cows, expect high speed internet and clear mobile service. I’m not really going to dissolve their dreams but I’m going to give them a dose of reality from my point of view. Remember the TV c...

Grandmas Antique Tchotchkes We’ve all heard the stories about how the millennials don’t want our stuff anymore. They don’t want the responsibility, to pay insurance on it, to store it or anything else.  Friends, Neighbors and Clients have all told me their stories about how their kids don’t want the silver tea set, aunties china set or grandma’s tchotchkes (trinkets). This includes me. My niece and nephew really aren’t interested in the family furniture from the 1880’s. Nor the picture of the family members that originally used that furniture. My front room has 4 boxes of Christmas Village pieces, a box of porcelain figurines and other stuff. Friends have given me these things because their family didn’t want them and they want them to go to somebody who will “appreciate them”.  You kno...

Copied from my Face Book page.                                                                                 Listen :1) If you're buying property it is VITALLY important to use a local lender. (Where ever you're buying) It's not only that I have them on speed dial already, it's to protect you! Local lenders use local appraisers (very important) Local appraisers don't need to use a GPS to find the property. If they need a GPS how well do they know the market, the area and the things happening in the area?2) Local lenders have local processors, underwriters and maybe even a local board of directors. These people know the area too. They probably drive past the property you're trying to purchase. 3) If you chose a lender that is out of area or out of state I'd bet my Beanie (my dog) that ...

The Hard Good Buy (Bye) I’ve been putting the ‘real’ into Realtor since 2004. And in that time I’ve had 2 buyers pass during the transaction. And I had an agent call me tonight that had one of her buyers pass today. It’s tough to take, both of mine shook me up. After all, nobody expects the person you’re working with to die.  The first time a man and his daughter signed all the documents to buy and were under contract. They left to go back to their home state to pack. He (dad) said he wanted to be in Colorado when he passed. Long story short he never made it back. His daughter completed the contract and moved to Colorado. She moved into the house and knew her father would be happy about it. He was there in spirit in both our minds.  The second man and his son were looking for vacant lan...
