Happy 4th of July! It's a great day in America. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

Fireworks over the Capitol building, the Washington Memorial, and the Potomac River. Can you just hear the Stars & Stripes Forever? I love to watch the fireworks from the Capitol each 4th of July. Such a patriot and stiring festival. I only wish I could be there in person.
Effective July 1, 2009,the Colorado Real Estate Commission (CREC) has mandated changes in quite a few of our contracts.
Other important changes are:
The Contract to Buy and Sell Real Estate, Exclusive Right to Buy, and the Exclusive Right to Sell. These form have been changed and will have to be used July 1 and after. Fortunately, it won't be necessary to rewrite documents that were effective prior to July 1, 2009. But, anything after that date will have to be on the new forms.
One exception: Seller's Property Disclosures. All Seller's Property Disclosures need to be on the new forms, regardless of when they were originally written.
The Real Estate Commission in Colorado is constantly reviewing and rewriting our contracts. In an ever increasing effort to protect the consumer. It is our responsibility to keep abreast of all changes.
