A little Boulder history for Veterans Day.
From the Armistice Day parades on Pearl Street to the monument that still stands outside the courthouse, Boulder has a long history of honoring those who served.
Today, we remember that history and thank our veterans for their service and sacrifice.
Happy Veterans Day, Boulder.

Inventory fell nearly 4% in Boulder County and just over 3% in Denver last week as the fall market continued to thin out.
Curious what’s actually worth seeing right now? Let’s take a closer look.

Do buyers need to lose a house to understand the market?

Watching grass grow, paint dry, and now... water run.
An inspector flagged a possible drainage issue, so we tested it with a water bottle. Turns out the slab slopes slightly away from the house.
Not a substitute for a full drainage assessment, but a useful little test!

Some open houses stay with you. Unfortunately, so do some agents. 👻
Seriously, these are real photos from properties we've encountered this year. Count yourself lucky you're seeing them through your phone...
Happy Halloween from House Einstein! 🎃
Fewer homes for sale doesn’t necessarily mean less negotiating room.
Inventory declined again in both markets, while stale listings continued to rise.
For buyers, the opportunity may be less about how many homes are available and more about which sellers are still at the table.

A Hamptons estate was reportedly marketed privately for $125M, then publicly listed for $79M.
Same house. $46M difference in asking prices.
We discuss private listings, days-on-market stigma and transparency on Podcast #136.

The things you see during showings in Boulder...
This was a standard ranch with a popped top, and rather than let the space above the staircase go to waste, it looks like the sellers made a cute little loft, complete with a built-in StairMaster at max incline.
We have our doubts these stairs would meet Boulder's current building codes, but there's room for a little whimsy, no?

Yes, that is heavy, wet snow coating I-70 at the Eisenhower/Johnson tunnels.
Fresh inventory is getting harder to come by.
Boulder County saw just 85 new listings last week, the lowest non-holiday weekly total we’ve tracked this year. Denver was steadier, but available inventory still declined again.

A home sells 32.5% over asking. Smart pricing strategy or an agent who misjudged the market?
This week with @OsmanParvez: two very different agent experiences, Boulder bidding wars and a sewer inspection dispute.

3138 W 41st Ave is sold.
Fresh paint, professional staging and thoughtful prep helped generate multiple offers, with the home ultimately closing $16K over asking.
Congratulations to Sophie Kloor and their sellers.

What do you do when a competing offer changes the stakes, but you cannot verify it?
This week we dig into the reported $42.5M offer for San Lazaro, the public money being assembled around the deal and the due diligence questions that still remain.
Then we look at Nederland’s $120M effort to buy Eldora, the BVSD school closure fight and what redevelopment of those properties could eventually mean for nearby neighborhoods.
Plus, rail-tax confusion, Western Slope water and a packed couple weeks of local events.
