denver: Denver Rookies... a Free Seminar Just for You! - 07/24/08 09:47 AM
Do you know a Denver rookie real estate agent who is floundering? One who has the drive, energy and brainpower to succeed, but doesn't seem to be putting the pieces and parts together in the right order to bring in a paycheck?
It's a tough business, ‘specially these days. ‘Specially for … (0 comments)

denver: There Ain't No Bugs on Me! - 07/22/08 07:36 AM
Denver, Colorado isn't perfect. We have a Brown Cloud, it snowed on Mother's Day and I-25 rush hour traffic is the pits.
But there's something we have here that is pretty darn special. And no, it's not the Democratic National Convention, coming soon to my fair city.
It's July 22nd and I … (15 comments)

denver: So, THAT'S Why They Call it HIGHlands! - 06/28/08 12:39 PM
I've lived in Northwest Denver on and off (mostly on) for over 14 years. And yeah, I've been aware the entire time that sections of my beloved 'hood are called "Highlands" (West Highlands, Highlands Square, East Highlands, Potter Highlands, etc.). Never gave it much thought, though. After all, the city next … (5 comments)

denver: Springtime in the Rockies... BLECH!!! - 05/15/08 05:26 PM
At the risk of destroying my reputation as a happy-go-lucky, always smiling, always cheerful, with never a harsh word to say (tee hee), allow me to say (shout) "I HATE SPRINGTIME IN DENVER!!!"
The rest of the world is enjoying mild temperatures, flowers in bloom and soft green grass. Snow? No, … (8 comments)

denver: In Celebration of the Classic Denver Bungalow - 05/08/08 08:44 AM
In January of this year, I moved into my 1927 Bungalow. I’ve owned the house for 3 years, but it’s always been a rental. I never dreamed I could actually fit into a 950 sqft home – after all, I’m an adult with lots of stuff. My last 5 houses (I … (2 comments)

Like we didn’t already know it, but we’re officially on 5280’s “safe” list of Denver neighborhoods that are still stable or even appreciating. The article even goes so far as to call us the “it” spot of the last five years!

denver: Northwest Denver DOWNZONED! How do I feel about it? - 04/30/08 09:21 AM
As you may have heard, the Denver City Council had a marathon session on Monday night - rumor has it that it finally broke up at 3am! I say "rumor" because I gave up around 9pm - I'm a lightweight when it comes to political events.
The topic at hand? Whether … (4 comments)

I love, love, love to rollerblade. I also love, love, love Sloan's Lake in Denver. Put the two together and you have a happy Jennifer.
Temps today in the 70's, amazingly blue, almost purple sky (at least thru my rose-colored glasses), light wind... ahhhhh... rollerblade bliss.
My poor blades have been packed … (3 comments)

To continue with the story of new construction here in my beloved ‘hood (here and here), I thought it might be interesting to talk about the what's, where's and how much's of what's available here.
Your best bet for entry level single family homes (which includes attached duplexes and triplexes, but not … (0 comments)

WARNING: This blog touches on a hot political issue and unfortunately, I'm not a political kinda gal. So feel free to debate me, but know you're dealing with an unarmed woman.

denver: New Construction in Charming Old Northwest Denver? The trend finally caught on. - 04/03/08 08:33 AM
Those of us who know and love the Charming Old Denver neighborhoods have a soft spot in our hearts for older homes - we love our Tudors, our Bungalows, our Victorians, our cottages and our Denver Squares. We happily put up with an appalling lack of electrical outlets, virtually non-existent closet space, … (3 comments)

A few weeks ago, I posted a blog called "Chicken Paws." It was about how I'd found chicken feet at the local Super Wal-Mart and thought my dogs might enjoy them. I'd been considering putting the pups on a BARF diet (Bones & Raw Food) for many reasons, not the least … (25 comments)

denver: It's Good to be the Master of Your Market - 01/03/08 07:53 AM
I believe a great real estate agent is a master of her market. Simple as that. She focuses on a few geographic areas and knows them inside and out. She knows, from the address, whether or not that house is on the bus route or if that condo is subject to highway … (16 comments)

denver: In Colorado, There's No Such Thing as a "Response Deadline" - 10/24/07 08:11 AM
In the Colorado Contract to Buy and Sell (the purchase contract), there is a provision in the Dates & Deadlines section called an Acceptance Deadline Date and Time.
Unfortunately, most agents erroneously refer to this deadline as "The Response Deadline."
There's a big difference.
The Acceptance Deadline is simply the hour that the … (4 comments)
