Today brought new optimism as the sun was out and the temperatures were reaching into the 80's!  That's Colorado for you.  I decided to attend an art fair in northeast Denver, known as Park Hill, where a friend of mine had a booth. It was a lovely show and so many people were milling about....especially after the Colfax marathon!

  Why Staging A Home Sells!   Find current homes for sale in the Courseside subdivision of Lakewood Colorado.   If you are looking for tips and tricks on how to stage a home, this is not the blog to read.

During the first three weeks of the open house, there was quite a bit of traffic with an average of around 20 visitors per day. However, the response was underwhelming to say the least. The home had not been staged and it was not a warm or inviting feeling for visitors. Although the home being newly built includes granite counter-tops in the kitchen and bathrooms, stainless steel appliances, brushed ... 03/18/2014

Sometimes life gets in the way.  Today, I had to reschedule real estate related appointments in order to be at home to meet a contractor/carpenter.  Wouldn't you know that with the onset of cold weather, my back door shifted and produced a separation between the roof and the framing....not good. I like cool weather but not cold temperatures in my sunroom, so today, we are getting a new door as well as adjustments to the framing.  Wish me luck so I can get back to business tomorrow! 11/12/2013

Recent CRS National meetings just concluded and I missed out!  The Council of Residential Specialists has been such a big part of my professional as well as personal life.  Due to family obligations, I have had to miss out on so much the past few years.  The best thing I ever did for my real estate career was get the CRS designation and secondly, to be active in the organization, not only locally but nationally. I pledge to do just that. I have developed so many friendships across the country and seeing all of the great photos taken at the recent meetings in San Francisco warmed my heart. I should have been there and I will be there in 2014. Congratulations to all my CRS friends on your awards and accomplishments.  Your leadership team is outstanding. 11/12/2013
