For all the sneaker heads out there and other agent my age we all recall seeing and having our first pair of Air Jordan's.  This was the best shoe out.  Not only did it look beyond sharp but it was comfy and cool. 
I always liked the blue black ones the most!
They are now making some retro throwbacks in new colors too!  But the best news might be the newest model #23! 
We it looks like #23 may be making his last pair and interestly enough they are planned to be ECO friendly!  With all the great programs for making homes … (1 comments)

longmont: Last year at this time. - 12/21/07 09:18 AM
Christmas 2006 still had 15 inches of snow on the ground still left over from the winter storm that occurred on the 21st and 22nd.  There was even a small amount of snowfall on the day that Saint Nick does his famous ride.  In fact...December 2006 became Denver's 3rd snowiest December in Denver weather history since 1882.  The month finished with a whopping 29.4 inches which was 20.7 inches above the normal of 8.7 inches.  The irony of December 2006 is there were only 4 days with measureable snow...20.7 on the 20th and 21st and 8.0 inches on the 28th and … (0 comments)

Just in time for Christams the Feds are working on some new finance laws.  Will the new loan programs help us out?  I guess it will take more time to unwrap the new rules to see if these gifts are for the naughty or the nice!

Council gives preliminary approval to zoning for large house lots, an article from the Loveland Daily Reporter-Herald, reports that the Loveland City Council gave a preliminary approval to the new zoning designation known as estate residential.  This zoning designation would allow a maximum of two homes on every developable acre.  Greg George, the city's director of development services said, "The intent is that when someone drives through the developed area, they see homes spaced a considerable distance apart."  The designation will streamline future proposed developments, he added.  http://www.reporterherald.com/Top-Story.asp?ID=13593 … (1 comments)

longmont: Monday Night Football. - 11/20/07 03:32 PM
When you have the Second worst seats in the house what do your do?
Cheer your brains out as your team wins 34-20 even though the coach gives the other team ten points by calling stupid timeouts before and after important plays!  Go Broncos!
These Guys sat in front of us!  They dress like this at work too!
Getting the change to bring your son to his first NFL game and have it be a Monday Night Win!  Priceless!
Even if your friends ask if you shot the pictures from a helicopter!  Nope just the second to last row about 2 miles above sea level.

What a difference a year makes.  Denver developer comes to market with High End College living.  Move in ready (plasma, furniture, dishes and art all provided) While i applaud his going for green attitude this article begs the question can he make his market?  Will this project be able to rush to completion for the housing rush for next years students?  Can this project demands rents of over twice the going rates?  While i would love for this project to be a move toward higher rents and New development i do not believe one speculators project will set the rule.  For more … (2 comments)

WOW.  Next week i will be filming the first part of the House Hunters TV show featuring My clients and Myself.  This should be a very fun experience!  I can't believe how lucky i am to be doing this.  My clients are really pumped too.  It should be cool to be able to show their kids (when they have some years from now)  how mom and dad picked out and purchased the home they are in on a TV show.  If you have not seen the show check out the premise and watch 5 minutes of an episode at http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/shows_hnt/
