I wrote the post below on May 9 of last year (2011). The interesting thing is that most of these blooms are already long gone already this year (May 14, 2012). Our season is very early due to early warm weather. The fun part of this spring has been that the warm weather keeps giving [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales Under $150,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: This price range is, of course, where you find the ‘mother lode’ of foreclosures, and even a few short sales. The percentage of Arvada homes that sold as foreclosures and short sales has been stable over the past 3 years, days on market has been erratic. There is only a [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales $150-200,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: Since I am out there, working in Arvada’s real estate market every day, I would have guessed that this price range would show a decrease in the days on market from previous years, and yet it is up. I am not surprised that the percentage of homes sold as short [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales $200-250,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: Last year was rough in this price range, but improvement in both median days on market and percentage of short sales and foreclosures is encouraging. This is a ‘hot’ price range for Arvada, and I expect to see further improvement. Click this link to see Arvada Home Sales in the other price [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales $250-300,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: The percentage of Arvada homes that sold as short sales and foreclosures has steadily increased over the past three years in this price range. However, even at its highest, it’s nowhere near the 40% that the Denver Metro Association of Realtors is reporting. The drop in days on market definitely [...]
Arvada CO Homes $300-400,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: A big drop in days on market and in percentage of short sales/foreclosures bodes well for this price range. Hopefully, these trends will continue through the ‘hot’ summer market! Click this link to see Arvada Home Sales in the other price categories. The following information was obtained from Metrolist on May 10, [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales $400-500,000 April 2012
What this report tells you: This price range seems to struggle with the days on market, even though it’s not greatly impacted by short sales. Sellers need to remain observant of comparative home sales, to be sure they’re not over priced. Click this link to see Arvada Home Sales in the other price categories. The following information was [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales $500,000+ for April 2012
What this report tells you: The real estate market for Arvada homes priced over $500,000 is still very stagnant. The graph shows a sharp increase in days on market, but with so few homes selling I doubt that is an indicator of what’s to be expected, it was just that all three sales last month [...]
Arvada CO Home Sales April 2012
This is a monthly market report for Arvada homes, a small town between Denver and Boulder. Arvada’s real estate market is not the same as Denver or Boulder, but is very similar to Westminster, Broomfield, Lakewood, and Golden. I hope that issuing these reports every month will help give you an idea of the real [...]
Gardening Denver to Boulder – Put Your Tender Plants in on Mother’s Day
This post is a re-release of one I wrote last year. This spring, we have had a lot more warm weather than usual, and the gardens are about a month ahead of time. I admit, I did put in tomatoes already, and I have some peppers sitting on the porch, ready to plant. We had [...]
