An article from the Rocky Mountain News, reports that according to Denverinfill.com, a developer is planning a 17-story hotel and condo tower on the site of a former Burger King at 15th and Stout streets. Planned by Ranko Mocevic, president of Hotel Gold Crown Champa LLC, the tower will have 264 hotel rooms on floors 3 through 14 and 12 condominiums on floors 15 through 17 and could open in 2010. Ken Schroeppel, urban planner and author of the Denverinfill.com blog said, "The site has certainly been underutilized. This is the same block with the Spire, so it's bringing a lot of density to the area."

An article from the Rocky Mountain News, reports that changes are on the way for Buckley Air Force Base with the addition of hundreds of personnel and more than two dozen major construction projects in the works or planned. John Spann, of the base's public affairs office said, "We are one of the fastest-growing Air Force bases in the country. The missions here at Buckley are constantly changing." One plan that is in the works is the addition of 800 people assigned to Buckley over the next three years, a combination of enlisted, private and contractor jobs. That includes about 600 workers at the Air Force Air Reserve Personnel Center near Lowry who will move to Buckley by 2011. Other plans, according to the Air Force, include a $30 million building for temporary lodging, a $1.42 million kennel for military dogs, a $5.5 million training center and a $10.7 fuel-distribution complex "required to accommodate the new development." According to Aurora Mayor Ed Tauer, the added military and civilian jobs are great for the local economy, but it's the quality of people the jobs attract that matters more. Tauer said, "To get the extra jobs is great, but more important, it says the Air Force has a long-term commitment to Buckley."

TESTIMONIALS
My wife and I recently sold our condo in Centennial, a home which we owned for more than four years. Our success in selling the unit was due largely in part to our real estate agent, Jude Sandvall.
A year before selling our condo we had our home listed with another agent. Our home sat on the market for six months with very little activity. We took it off the market for several months until we could find an agent who would
be aggressive in selling our condo.
In the spring of 2006 Jude took over as our agent and quickly took the steps necessary to sell our home. He gave us advice in how to make our condo stand out from the thousands of condos that are on the market. The research he conducted about our neighborhood helped us market and price our unit appropriately. Jude did an excellent job getting our condo on the market as fast as possible and making it accessible to the public through several different publications.
Because of Jude's hard work and dedication, our condo sold in about a month, well before more than a dozen other units available in our complex. He made the negotiation and closing process with our buyer hassle free and got us the deal we expected when we first put our condo on the market.
It was not only the selling process, but also the buying phase that Jude was most helpful with. Once a final
offer was made on our condo, he worked quickly to help find us a new home. Jude found more than 40 homes which met the specifications we were looking for and was along for every step of the way as we toured potential homes, found our new place, and finally the closing process.
Through the entire buying and selling process, Jude Sandvall was very professional and did an excellent job communicating with us about the status of our condo and future new home. His hard work and dedication would make him a perfect fit for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Dear Future Real Estate Customer:
This letter is to inform you of the wonderful home buying experience I shared with Jude Sandvall. In early April 2006, I had the pleasure of meeting Jude Sandvall at a property, where he was the agent for the seller. At that time homeownership was merely a dream but after spending less than 30 minutes speaking to Jude about home ownership, I soon realized that this dream could actually become a reality.
Jude took time from his busy schedule to introduce me to a financial planner/broker, whom at no cost educated and prepared me to buy my first home. Throughout the process, Jude was the
consummate professional. Jude made himself available to my daughter and I morning, noon, night and weekends. There were no questions or requests too large or small for Jude. Jude made it his business to have answers to my questions and concerns, most times in less than 24 hours.
On Monday, May 1, 2006 I became a first time home buyer. I had no idea that within 6 weeks of that first meeting with Jude, I would own my very own home. I can say with certainty and honor that Jude Sandvall will be my #1 choice in realtors when I decide to buy my second home and I hope that he is your #1 choice also.
Sincerely,
Angela P.
