Living in Denver: Denver Restaurant Week 2012

Originally posted on my Denver Real Estate Blog: Time to Make Reservations For Denver Restaurant Week

denver restaurant week 2012Have you always wanted to dine at one of Denver’s best restaurants but just couldn’t fit it into your budget? Well, once again this year, now is your chance.

Denver restaurant week is back. This is an opportunity to purchase pre selected meals at some of Denver’s finest and most delicious restaurants. I have done this for the past several years and my wife and I have never been disappointed! It makes for a wonderful date night. The selections are scrumptious and the chance to dine at some of these great restaurants is worth the price and them some. It’s a bargain at many restaurants for 2 meals for $52.80! You will get to taste why these restaurants are considered the best. Plus, I have found the selections offered for restaurant week won’t disappoint in either quality or quantity. It really is a deal. And once again, it is not just one week but 2. Dining dates begin February 25th and run through March 5th, 2012.

Menus will be out January 17th exclusively on the Visit Denver Facebook page and then on the Denver Restaurant week site after January 22nd. So if you have always had the idea of a very special dinner then make sure to sign up and be ready, some of the restaurants will get completely booked up rather quickly. And if you are just relocating to the Denver area, this is a fabulous way to get acquainted with some of Colorado’s best restaurants. Take advantage and bon appetit!

Things To Do in Denver: National Western Stock Show & Rodeo

Originall posted on my Denver Real Estate Blog: National Western Stock Show

Denver stock show rodeoHowdy Folks! It’s just about mid January here in Denver and that can only mean one (of many) things. It’s Denver stock show time. Actually, it is more than halfway though the National Western Stock Show & Rodeo here in Denver, which is why you need to go and check it out. If you have never been to a rodeo or up close with real livestock and cowboys, then you are in for a real treat!

This is the real deal. These animals are huge, beautiful and a bit intimidating to a city slicker like myself. Never fear, there is always the smaller animals for the kids of the more intimidated big kids. As far as the rodeo goes, these are the best of the best competing here. There are rodeo’s for all types of fun, including ProRodeo featuring some of the world’s best bronco and bull riders. This is a thrill to see live if you haven’t ever seen it. The power of the animals is stunning and the courage and strength of the riders is awesome. The skills of the horseback riders is amazing and of course, the clowns. They bring us a laugh but also serve a very vital role in the protection of the cowboys. Their courage behind the mask is incredible.

The stock show has something entertaining for everyone. Cowboy or not, it is a lot of fun!

Highlands Ranch Real Estate Market Statistics

Getting caught up on some blog posts today - here is an area market report for the end of 2011 for Highalnads Ranch CO that was originally posted on my Denver Real Estate Blog: Highlands Ranch Real Estate Market Report | September – November 2011

Highlands Ranch Real Estate Home Sales

So maybe you have been curious about the Highlands Ranch real estate market now that we are into the “slow season”. Looking at the data above for the last 3 months, it may have already been the “slow season”. I haven’t posted these statistics since August, so I thought I would share the data with you.

The good news is that the Highlands Ranch real estate market is not flooded with inventory. In fact, it is pretty low with inventory at this point. Same is true with the broader regional market. In every price range in the chart, with the exception of the above $900K range, there is less than 2.5 months of inventory! WOW.

Sellers: inventory levels are in your favor. If you are on the market, remain competitive on price, condition and allow showings. I know the holiday season is already stressful, however with way slower sales you need every potential buyer looking at your home and impressed with what they see. There is not as much competition with other sellers, but with so few buyers it’s all relative anyway.

Buyers: inventory levels are not in your favor. Interest rates still very much are! Your buying power is strong, but don’t expect sellers to just give away the home. They are probably already priced effectively. With fewer homes to choose from, don’t procrastinate. If it is the home for you, buy it. Who knows if inventory will dramatically increase, or when. Your buying power is at an all time high now.

If you are looking to buy or sell real estate in Highlands Ranch, please let me know. I can help. I live here, work here and know the market. I’ll be honest, fair and exceed your expectations.
