Yes, the small mountain community of Cedaredge, CO has been discovered, but not by who you might think. Social media outlets are full of reports of people spotting bears in town. There is even the possibility a bear may have killed an animal several blocks west of the park. Cedaredge Police Chief, Dan Sanders, is warning residents to use common sense and to not get too close to a bear. This warning came after social media reports of residents wanting to take cell phone selfies with the animals. Personally, I hope those reports are just people joking around. A good friend of mine lives less than two blocks from the park, and she tells me there is a lot of bear scat in her yard. She hasn't seen a bear in town, though. Bears sightings aren't usually typical in town, but out of town, it hap... 07/26/2024

Actually if you haven't renewed by now, you are late. I don't believe there's a late fee, but check with the town on this. The town would like to have all dog/cat licenses renewed by the end of January. If you had an previous license, then you have already received a notice in the mail reminding you to renew. My notice went to the wrong address, and I received a courtesy call today from the animal control officer. That call was to confirm my address and to remind me to get my dog's license renewed. The charge is $10/year for a dog or cat that is spayed or neutered. If your pet isn't fixed the fee is $50/year.

West Ador is a Cedaredge neighborhood that has seen a lot of price improvement over the last year. In the past this neighborhood experienced a fairly high foreclosure rate that caused property values to drop. Those values are coming back. Let's take a look at that the sales history for the last three years.  In 2014 three homes sold. Two of them were bank owned and one was a bank owned home that was bought, fixed up and resold. The average sales price was $125,400 and the median sales price was $134,900. The average days on market was 151. The sold price range was $86,300 to $155,000. In 2015 two homes sold. The average and median sales price were the same at $127,500. One bank owned home sold for below market value. The other home was a traditional resale with a motivated seller. The a... 01/15/2017

This is one of those neighborhoods where we don't see a lot of turnover. Sales numbers are normally low, because this is a neighborhood that people love to call home.  2016 was the best year for sales out of the last three years. There were three sales with an average selling price of $153,166. In 2015 one two bedroom home sold for $124,898. In 2014 there were two sales with an average selling price of $142,255.   So we have seen the average sales price creep up a bit over the last three years. I expect we will see prices continue to go up due to the lack of similar homes on the market at this time. Low inventory is a problem throughout Delta County.  Of course there are certain features and amenities of a home that might add or detract from the value. It would be wise to consult with m... 01/12/2017
