Cherry Hills Village was established in 1945. Despite its exceedingly humble beginnings, Cherry Hills Village is considered to be one of the most affluent, as well as desirable, cities Colorado has to offer.

This truly unique city has established a highly coveted "rural" feel to its streets. This was done through a set of zoning plans that allowed for "limited" commercial use. The next course of action was to establish the city's governance as "Home Rule" (The principle or practice of self government by localities) rather than a "Statutory Town".

In just 20 years (1950-1970) Cherry Hills Village exploded from a population of 750 residents, to that of 4,605. A 514% increase in just 20 years. Today the city remains primarily rural, and has a recorded population of around 6,000 residents.

Cherry Hills Village has hosted two PGA Championships (1941 & 1985). As well as the 2005 Women's Open Golf Championship. Hosted at the beautiful Cherry Hills Country Club.

It is alleged, by its members, that the famous Arnold Palmer drink (half lemonade, half iced tea) had its start at the Cherry Hills Country Club when Arnold supposedly became angry at a bartender for not mixing lemonade into his iced tea.

As investors we face a number of very real and very scary challenges. Making sense of this market is no mean feat and one has to be very careful with his or her investment. However, we usually think about danger as financial. Unfortunately, on rare occasion it can be even worse than that. The majority of the homes investors are buying these days are vacant and once in a while people break in and live in these properties illegally. The last thing you want to do is walk in on someone camped out in a house, perhaps conducting illegal an activity. This is no joke, you want to be HEARD when you walk into a property that is supposed to vacant. So make a lot of noise when you're at the front door. I always knock loudly before entering. Stomp your feet a little. Yell "Hello!" a couple of times. When you start walking down into the basement repeat the process. The goal is to have whoever is inside hear you and not panic and do something stupid. I hope you never need this advice, but keep it in mind the next time you visit a foreclosed home.

The talk around the water cooler these days is all about LOANS. Who can get them? At what price? What if I already have a few loans, do I still qualify? A year or two ago the question was at what price do I get a loan (those were the days!). Today it is "am I still in the game?"

Here's the deal: if you have an owner occupied loan and 3 investor loans you cannot buy any more properties and get Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac financing, meaning you can't get a conventional 30-year fixed loan. Now, my hope is that someone reads this and tells me I'm wrong. That would be great! But as far as I know that is the case.

Where does this leave you? You can pursue loans that are warehoused by lenders, meaning they are not sold on the backend to Fannie or Freddie. You are probably looking at a minimum of 20% down but more importantly it will be almost impossible to get a 30-year loan. But a 5/1 ARM is not out of the question. (Lenders, please start a dialogue here and let folks know who has what products available.) There is also Hard Money available. I met with a group of high-end Hard Money lenders today to discuss options and the consensus is that they are proceeding...but with extreme caution.

A final version is to contact smaller local lenders. You'll need 25% down, but if your story makes sense, you'll get your loan - and usually at an attractive rate. Let me know what your situation is and I'll try to refer you to the right person.
