The Delta Dog Park has become a great place for me and Lucky to hangout. We've both made some new friends and we have a regular play date set up every Saturday and Sunday. Lucky's best friend is Odessa. She's a Labradoodle and so very sweet. Joyce is Odessa's mom, and she's become a very good friend of mine. Odessa is also very fast and Lucky has to work hard to keep up with her. They love to play with sticks and chase balls. While they are both good at bringing the toys back, they don't like to give them up.  Sticks are one of their favorite things to play with. I try to remember to grab one from my firewood pile before I leave for the park. Lucky and Odessa will each grab an end and play tug of war. Of course there's a lot of growling going on, but it's all done in fun. Don't let the ...

Now is a great time to put your home on the market. There are no homes listed for sale in your subdivision. That means your listing won't have any neighborhood competition. Since last month's report the one property that was under contract has sold. It went under contract 15 days after it was listed and sold for $138,000. So far this year three homes have sold. More would sell if there were more properties on the market. So if you are thinking of listing your home...NOW is the time to do it. Delta County has seen some significant real estate market improvement throughout 2015. I expect we will continue to see the market improve as we continue into 2016. Contact me if you would like to be kept up to date with market information and with new listings.

Foreclosure Homes for Sale Delta, CO Real Estate Information March 2016There has been some significant change in the foreclosure market since last month's report. The overall number of active listings is down, but several new properties have come on the market, and sales activity has been high.  For the last several years we've seen the overall number of foreclosures go down throughout Delta County. I expect we will continue to see the overall number continue to drop or at least level off. I don't see the recent flurry of new listings as a new trend. The 2015 year end statistics look like this...the foreclosure numbers are way down. Last year 86 bank owned homes sold in the entire county. Compare that to 102 that sold in 2014.This report covers all of the bank owned homes listed in the ...

Why Didn't You Tell Me the Guy Died in This House?That is the question I was asked by my buyer that now owns a house in which the previous owner had passed away. My response was this...Because I didn't know. I went on to further explain to Mr. Buyer that in Colorado, the seller doesn't have to disclose whether someone died in the house. Certainly if I had known, I would have told my buyer. In this case it was a natural death. In Colorado agents are required to disclose material defects about the property. Unless something physically affects the property it doesn't have to be disclosed. A natural death isn't a material defect. Any psychological impacts are not considered material defects. I don't know if the seller's agent knew about the death, but I do know that agent wasn't breaking an...
