Gone but not forgotten #RIP

I laughed so hard when I saw this picture. It has nothing to do with #RealEstate but if you have used the internet longer than 2 days I hope you will appreciate it as well.

6 things you need to do to lower your property taxes in Metro Denver

Image
Protest, protest, protest . Front Range homeowners may have that reaction when they first see how much county assessors increased the value of their homes over the past two years amid worries that next year’s property taxes will shoot up as well. Neighborhoods throughout metro Denver have recorded double-digit price increases, which reflects the region’s hot real estate market. The biggest percentage gains are coming in lower-income neighborhoods that lagged in past cycles. The first steps for those who disagree with value placed on their home is to figure out how much the value should be adjusted and whether a protest has a chance of winning. And with a June 1 deadline for protests, homeowners need to act fast. Should I protest? While a big jump in property value may come as a shock, in most cases it is probably justified. But county assessors can have basic information about a property wrong, and they won’t know details about a home’s condition versus others in the neighborho...

99 percent of Denver homes regain or surpass pre-recession value

Image
Nearly 99 percent of homes in metro Denver have regained or surpassed the prices from their pre-recession peak, according to an analysis by Trulia that shows only a third of homes nationwide reaching the same mark. The report, “The Housing Recovery That Wasn’t,” said the metro area’s recovery from a decade ago is the best among the 100 housing markets it examined. Counties to the north, south and even east of Denver are showing strong recovery rates, while the rebound on the Western Slope is spottier, with median prices in most areas still below their old highs. In metro Denver, home prices have shot up 50.5 percent from the pre-recession high of $237,071, the highest percentage gain of any of the 100 metros. That has allowed individual homes over time to regain their old highs. But incomes in metro Denver are up only 20 percent since the end of the recession, making it harder for buyers to find affordable homes and pushing them further out in their search.

Can Your Home Survive a Wildfire?

Image
Whether a home survives a wildfire is not random, nor is it a function of luck, most homes that exhibited attributes promoted by the FireSmart program -- including keeping combustible vegetation away from the house, uncluttered yards and low-flammability roofs and surfaces -- survive fires. It seems clear that the survival of homes was a function of resistance to ignition and not a random event or a matter of luck, Beyond doubt, risk mitigation (FireSmart) guidelines demonstrated their effectiveness in mitigating risk under the harshest of wildfire conditions. Most homes caught on fire as the result of embers from the forest fire landing on their property. "Based on site visits, no instances were observed where home ignition could confidently be attributed to direct contact by flames of the burning forest, and there were very few observations where home ignition was likely due only to radiant heat from the forest. Other studies have shown that embers generated by burning vege...
