THANK YOU GREENFIELD!
The Bibeau Group hosted the 2nd Annual Greenfield Food Drive Sunday, March 22nd, 2009. In just four hours, we were able to collect 481 pounds of food for Food Bank of the Rockies. That's 159 pounds more than last year!
Additionally, the event co-sponsors, The Bibeau Group and Oxford Mortgage, matched the community donations for a grand total of almost 1000 pounds of food.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks and congratulations to the entire Greenfield community. This wonderful, caring neighborhood just made a huge difference in the lives of many Colorado families in need.
We can't wait to see how we do at the 3nd Annual Food Drive next year!
As pointed out by Forbes Magazine in its recent article "Ten Cities Where Americans Are Relocating", the Denver metropolitan area continues to be a popular destination for relocating Americans.
"Unemployment is on the rise, credit is tight, and consumers aren't spending--which means they aren't picking up and moving much either.
Very few places in America saw significant population growth in 2008. But the buzzing metropolitan area of Denver bucked that trend. Its population increased by 2.17% in 2008. In 2007, it increased by 2.09%. In 2008, Denver was the 10th-fastest growing metro area in the U.S."
Why all the interest in the Mile High City? Forbes points to several factors:
As a longtime resident of Colorado (transplanted from Minnesota), I'd add another factor to that list....our weather! While we do get the occasional blizzard or hailstorm, the Denver area is a perfect choice for those of us who enjoy having four seasons, but ones that are mild and enjoyable year-round.
Another big plus for those considering a move to our area is that the Denver real estate market has held up better than many other around the country. As reported in the Rocky Mountain News, the February 2009 S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Index revealed that the Denver housing market was the best-performing of 20 of the largest markets at the end of last year.
The Bibeau Group are Denver Relocation specialists and would be happy to send you a free Denver Relocation packet if you are considering a move to our area.

Here is some of what this article has to say about the Mile High City:
"Denver has been all over the home building news of late, with Beazer and Centex leaving town, then Village Homes of Colorado declaring bankruptcy. But the market hasn’t been hit as hard by the home building recession as other Western markets, in part because it didn’t experience rampant price appreciation during the boom. That’s partly because there’s lots of land available to develop in Denver. The median price of an existing home here was still an affordable $225,100 in the third quarter of last year, down only 11.4 percent in the last year (through 3Q 08). Denver enjoys one of the highest population growth rates in the country--2 percent annually for each of the last five years. Builders pulled 8,800 permits in Denver last year, down from 20,864 in 2005, a percentage decline that’s close to the national average. Denver is buoyed by a strong commercial real estate market."
