The market for Castle Rock homes continues to be hot. We're still seeing the median number for days on market well under a month and homes are selling for over 97% of their list price. Prices in Castle Rock continue to be higher than the Metro Denver area at large with a median sales price of $325,000 and an average sales price of $404,717. As a consistent metric, we prefer to use the median, rather than the average, sales prices, because outliers can significantly influence the average price. The numbers below give a perfect example. With a low of $40,000 and a high of $2,800,000, the average calculations can be swung by just a few sales. These statistics represent the sales of all single family Castle Rock homes for the past 6 months, including Castle Rock foreclosures and Castle Rock... 10/02/2013

I'm as guilty as the next guy.  Letting "work" and "business" get in the way of my personal health and fitness.  I plan on exercising and before I know it - half my day has gone by and I'm going from appointment to appointment, only to find myself spending the whole day working and not getting in any physical activity.  I am also guilty of going 5-6 hours without a meal, then gobbling down a fast food meal that I should have never ate! I'm lucky, though.  My wife is a fitness instructor and a nutritionist.  So I have someone keeping me accountable when I let my work get in the way of my wellness.  You've heard the saying "if Mom's not happy, no one is happy."  Well, the same goes for realtors!  If you are not feeling good, feeling tired, stressed, overweight, etc. - how are you going to... 07/24/2013
