Twelve houses sold in The Hearth in Highlands Ranch in October. One less than in Oct 2008. The average days on the market has more than doubled since last October. The home values in the Hearth have gone down about 5% since early parts of 2008. So, for example if a house sold for $290,000 in Jun 08, today you could expect to get $280,000. However this is not for each and every house.
The few ranch style homes that are sprinkled between the typical 2-story houses in the Hearth have been for the most part seen even larger depreciation.

If you are thinking about selling your home you may have heard that having updated home can bring you a lot more cash and get your home sold in no time.
Here are some updates to consider if your house was built a long, long, long, long time ago.
DESIGNER PAINT COLOR
with a matching fireplace
Upgraded carpet in neutral colors
Almost forgot the matching state-of-the art jetted tub.
Any guesses as to the fabulous era of these updates?
If you ever would need - not sure why - to get a Finnish drivers license, or happen to drive in Finland here is a quick crash course test to see if you can pass and decipher some of the Finnish traffic signs.
Just to confuse things a little I have added some commentary - you can decide to believe them or not!
1. Lets just relax first with a cup of strong Finnish coffee :)
2. T - T - T- T- T ti,ti, ti, ti,...
3. If you do this - you might end up
4. Waist deep in the water
5. Got some weight on there boy...
6. You can land your airplane here!
7. Ok, so not all areas in Finland have road yet!
8. Where is the dude from the bike? You better just walk.
9. This might go with -
10. - this
11. Whoa! Feel the speed!
12. This guy looks like he needs to go -
13. there...
If you run into this sign below you have gone way too far and decided to visit Liz instead of Finland :)
DID YOU THINK YOU PASSED?
For those that may not know - I grew up in Finland. My home town is in Northern Finland above the Arctic Circle, where we have more reindeer than people (so we say).
Yet another snow storm in the Denver area. It started snowing yesterday, took a little breather this morning and continued on. To brighten up the day I was looking through and organizing some photos that were shot in much nicer weather conditions.
These photos were taken near Boulder Colorado.
These are the Foothills West of Denver, before you head to the Rocky Mountains.
There are great trails for hiking in the Foothills and Eldorado Springs is nearby as well. Eldorado Springs has Eldorado Canyon State Park for hiking and rock climbing and great Colorado scenery!
The Preserve Greenwood Village Home Sales The Preserve Greenwood Village Homes have been selling at the rate of 1-2 per month this year. So far 18 houses have sold in The Preserve in 2009. A few more houses sold in 2008. The inventory remains at even 30 houses on the market at the end of October.
One of the bigger statistical differences this year compared to 2008 is that homes are selling on average for less per square foot. The average in 2008 was near $400 per square foot. This year depending on the month the price per square foot has dipped to low 200s and averages around $340 per square foot.
