buena vista: Lookin' like the old west - 04/13/09 12:49 PM
Buena Vista is central to kayaking, rafting and mountain climbing in Colorado. It is a small town and some of the streets are still unpaved...in fact Main Street has only been paved for 50 years or so. Now it is unpaved again...looking a bit like the old west...as we prepare for … (2 comments)
buena vista: The safety of the Colorado mountains - 02/20/09 09:41 AM
I just love showing property here on the side of the Continental Divide...surrounded by 13- and 14,000 foot peaks. The beauty is astounding and so far, the housing market is holding tight. I have not noticed any real slip in property values, although sales numbers were down for 2008. On the … (3 comments)
buena vista: Still paradise - 01/17/09 07:36 PM
I just returned from snowshoeing in the Sawatch range between 10 and 11,000 feet. What a day! Typical Colorado blue sky and lots of dry crunchy snow. The views are wonderful, the forest silent, yet alive. One couple had just summited Mt Yale (14,200 ft) and others were asking if it … (1 comments)
buena vista: Good times - 12/02/08 02:43 PM
The morning office meeting is over and once again I realize that I am very fortunate to be here. Every broker at the meeting had positive things to say about the office, the business and the state of affairs. Certainly sales are down a bit this year in the Colorado mountains, … (1 comments)
buena vista: Property values holding in the Colorado mountains - 11/14/08 09:25 AM
Here in Buena Vista, in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, property sales are down from past years mainly because our buyers come from places where the real estate market has taken hard hits. The property values here are holding quite well, foreclosures are not an item, and finding bargains is not … (5 comments)
buena vista: A sign of the times - 09/22/07 10:52 AM
Business has been booming and it seems that there has been no time to get to the high country...really high that is. Fortunately, long-time hiking friends from Michigan let us know that they were headed this way, so I took myself off the schedule with the hope of getting some hiking … (4 comments)
buena vista: Happy 4th of July! - 07/02/07 10:15 AM
With the celbration of the 4th lasting for about a week, Buena Vista is bustling with visitors. It appears as though every room in town is taken and that will be the case now for much of the summer. This is one of the most intersting, beautiful and out-door oriented places in the country. … (2 comments)
buena vista: Snow and Opening Day - 05/25/07 03:48 PM
Back when I lived in Detroit, Opening Day meant the season opener at Tiger Stadium. I was a meterologist at the NBC affiliate in Detroit and that meant the forecast had to be right. On occasion the forecast included snow. I also had my Captains license and loved being on the water. … (0 comments)
buena vista: No sales dip in the high county - 03/15/07 11:20 AM
Buena Vista. What a place to live! I sit here looking at a clear cobalt blue Colorado sky and 14,000+ foot snow-covered peaks pasted on the sky. At 8,000 feet in this alpine valley, the real estate market is busy. In years past, sales tailed off around Thanksgiving and picked up … (0 comments)
