February Denver home sales are steady in preliminary results
By Lon Welsh, Your Castle Real Estate
While we wait for Metrolist, Denver MLS to release the official Denver home sales for February, I have compiled some preliminary results. These suggest that the Denver real estate market continues to “hold its own’ especially in comparison to other national markets.
So far, it looks like the number of homes sold in Feb 2010 was about the same as Feb 2009. We saw +9% Jan 2010 vs. Jan 2009 for number of homes sold. This will be more precise in a few days because the Metrolist statistics take some time to compile. Read More→

By · CommentsCarl Brahe, Certified Home Inspector
Methamphetamine means trouble in Colorado real estate
Everyone knows that being involved in a property that has been used for methamphetamine can be trouble, but most people don’t understand what that means. Colorado laws provide explicit directions that must be followed and penalties including criminal prosecution for those who don’t follow the rules.
A Denver home owner who uses, or makes, methamphetamine must reveal this fact to future buyers. Even if meth is made in small, user quantities the property is a clandestine drug lab according to the Colorado law. Read More→

Controversy in Denver's Stapleton neighborhood over medical marijuana.
Consternation and controversy among some Stapleton residents is brewing over a new use for a former coffee house. A medical marijuana dispensary is slated to occupy the former location of Perk and Play in Stapleton.
The irony is that Perk and Play was a neighborhood hang-out for mothers and their children. They served coffee, crepes and snacks and had a great indoor play area.
The medical marijuana dispensary is scheduled to open for business in the next few months. While the younger, single crowd at Stapleton might care less, families are more concerned about this new business and the risks it brings to our neighborhood. Read More→
