colorado springs real estate: Important Numbers For Colorado Springs Home Sellers - 06/28/08 10:20 AM
In our current market situation, many home sellers are frustrated, angry and feeling a little helpless. We think it's important for home sellers to understand what to expect.
What constitutes a "Deal? (for the buyer) I think this one is a question of perceived value. In other words how is the home priced to begin with. If the home is priced correctly, we are generally seeing offers starting in the 5% to 3% below list price range and sales prices from 2% to 3% below list price. If on the other hand the home is excessively over priced offers can start … (0 comments)

colorado springs real estate: What is a "Tandem Garage"? - 05/24/08 06:32 PM
A tandem garage is an alternative garage configuration adds depth to a garage not width. This configuration allows the builder to stay within a narrow building envelope by moving deeper not wider. Cars in this type of garage park bumper to bumper as opposed to side by side.

colorado springs real estate: Colorado Springs Real Estate-First Quarter 2008 Market Report - 04/09/08 06:05 PM
As predicted in the annual report, the first quarter of 2008 was as tumultuous as any time in the recent market slowdown. Characteristics of the First Quarter, 2008 include: low prices, low selling activity, high inventory, tightened credit and bad press coverage. What is not characteristic of the First Quarter, 2008: increases in local foreclosures, a continued increase in listing stimulus, and the end of civilization as we know it. The big bail out in the financial markets orchestrated by the Federal Reserve was not on Main Street but on Wall Street with the giant $20 billion bailout of Bear Sterns. … (0 comments)

colorado springs real estate: March Numbers are in for-Colorado Springs Real Estate - 04/04/08 06:58 PM
The numbers are in for March and it's a mixed story, some good some bad. Listing Volume was off 18.9%. For March 2008. This is actually good as it seems to indicate the buildup of listing inventory may be leveling-off. Don't forget, we are heading into the busy buying season and this is when we generally see an increase in inventory. Those of us that have been counseling buyer to get off the fence may actually been giving good advice.On the down side, demand was off the same amount, with sales at 722, off 19% from March 2007, a bad March … (0 comments)

colorado springs real estate: Using Homeowners In-Colorado Springs Real Estate Videos - 03/21/08 10:09 AM
We have been utilizing video a lot the last couple of months. I especially like exposing areas via video, as I feel like it’s easier to get a feel on a video walk through.
On the other hand, property videos are a lot more difficult. I think simply panning rooms shows the size, shape and scale of the room but it always helps to have a description. Realtor interviews and voiceovers help but I think in general, people still see us as sales people.
I think buyers tend to be more receptive to watching homeowners talk about their homes. By the way, I … (1 comments)

colorado springs real estate: Colorado Springs Real Estate-Building Permit Activity - 03/19/08 08:02 AM
Here is the January Permit Activity report from the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department. Although at this report looks pretty anemic, it at least shows some activity, just not very robust.
I think the residential remodel increase says it all, the attitude seems to be “Don’t move, just improve”.

colorado springs real estate: Property Descriptions: The New Filter? - 03/17/08 12:21 PM
I've been showing a lot these days and with the abundance of inventory on the market, I'm finding the need to develop better filters as to what I'm going to show. Days on market used to be an easy way to use a "Wisdom of Crowds" mentality to get rid of those listings that were "non-contenders". These days, that tactic just seems wrong as everything seems to have a long shelf life. Pictures, seemed like the next best place for a visual learner to start and I think that works for about 1% of the listings, I just can't get past … (1 comments)

colorado springs real estate: Colorado Springs Real Estate-October Update Part 3 In Conclusion - 11/11/07 03:50 PM
Conclusion: Lots of Data, How to Spot Trends?Merrill Lynch and Citicorp, as "blue-chip" as they come are now looking for new CEO's due to billions in losses on subprime mortgages and the collateral damage suffered to their lines of credit from these losses. Holy Headlines, Brian Williams. The bottomline for the casual consumer is that "after sub-prime" (the era in time we all now live in) the high-risk, high-reward mortgage-money-making machine no longer exists. Lenders are now forced to self-police their entire portfolio. Money was ridiculously easy to get six months ago. It's a lot harder right now. That's why if … (0 comments)
