This wonderful picture was taken by Kristal Kraft at dusk on January 6, 2009 from the Interstate 25 pedestrian bridge at 20th Avenue looking east. The very cool thing are the 6 construction cranes visible in this photo, 6 of the dozen at work making Denver an even better place to be. If you are [...]

Over the past month I have had long private conversations with the associates in my brokerage, and many others outside my company.

He lost a run for United States Congress in 2000, but started campaigning for the [...]

The Effect of the Cause

The Effect of the Cause Midday Friday, I was informed that an expected closing had fallen. My associate, the listing agent, received a call from the buyer’s agent with the very sad news that the buyer was laid off from his job this morning, an hour after his wife had completed the final walk through for [...]
