District 11, often referred to as the “central district,” is the original school district in Colorado Springs. It has a rich history.
With the Colorado Springs market heating up let’s look at the last 3 months of 2015 and the most recent 3 months.

This is a popular area with abroad variety of house styles and decades in which they were built. Not all houses at the same price level are of the same value. Buyers need to be working with a veteran broker who can educate them on the differences and help them with a strategy to get the house they want.
