"Comming soon" is another way of saying "pocket listing" or "private listing". I believe it is a disservce to both the seller and the public, as it resricts potential buyers and benifits only the listing broker to the detriment of other Realtors and the public. If the National Association of Realtors truly have a code of ethics this practice would be labled as unethical and banned in its entirety. 06/17/2014

Price data for February is an anomaly - Median Price plummeted to $219k from $261K in January, and Average Price fell to $254k from $308K.

Every once in a while, we get involved in a transaction that is so completely different and challenging that its novelty alone throws it up there among our all-time favorites. We were involved in one of those many years ago that could have been a nightmare, but because of a great owner, was instead a learning experience and, eventually, a successful close.   Click on photo to view property flyer   We got a call to come talk to the owner of a property, we'll call him Victor, about a possible listing. What we found was a beautiful 35-acre hidden valley in the near foothills west of Loveland, completely fenced into pastures and paddocks.
