I recently toured Loveland, CO's Forge Campus and was struck by the number of leading companies in their fields that are calling Loveland, CO home. The Forge Campus was originally HP headquarters. It has been renovated to host smaller companies, many start-ups, with a unique collaborative approach. The campus includes Grimm Brothers brewery, a coffee shop and restaurant. The set up allows for and encourages collaboration between the various tenants, which has resulted in successful partnerships. Aerospace, contract manufacturing, 3-d printing, automation and robotics, commercial construction, digital marketing services and much more. Take a look at what this amazing campus has to offer and you'll begin to understand why northern CO continues to grow. WIth such vibrant downtown areas, strong employment and an incredible foundation for continued growth, it's no wonder that more people are choosing the front range to call home. If you are considering a move to this area please reach out. I'd love to help. (970) 670-0246.

Greeley, CO is embarking on a mixed-use development project,  Cascadia,
with Windsor-based developer Martin Lind (successful developer of Windsor's popular Raindance community). This project would be the new home for minor league hockey team, Colorado Eagles (which LInd also owns) plus additional ice for youth hockey teams, a hotel, spa, conference center, water park and central plaza for concerts and multiple retail spaces to create a vibrant community center with residential and businesses blending together with a central cascade of waterfalls running through it all. There is nothing else quite like this in the area and if it comes to fruition (which it seems like it is on track to do so) could attract an estimated 350K visitors per year. The revenue generated by Cascadia could be very beneficial to Greeley however the financing of this venture has come under fire by Greeley residents. Greeley is taking on a risky financing plan to help move this forward with the hopes of benefitting greatly down the road. Some residents are not anxious to have the city and their tax dollars footing the bill and have launched 'Greeley Deserves Better to organize and protest. The development is set to move forward for now but stay tuned for more information on Cascadia. See the link to learn more about this mixed use development project.

This is one day's progress made at 1347 Burt Ave, Berthoud. The construction team is full steam ahead with this 5 bedroom, 4 bath, 3 car garage on 0.22 acres in Berthoud's Harvest Ridge Community. Solar panels will be on the back roof (south facing). With 12.54 Kw solar panels, homeowners will have enough power to support all their needs (*based on standard usage - with some room to spare). 
Applied Construction Concepts, Rich Flanagan is moving things right along. If you're interested, and might want to select some finishes, there may still be time to influence the interior decor.

There are mixed opinions but the majority of experts seem to believe that there will be no significant changes to the mortgage rates when the Federal Reserve meets next week. While rates have been fluctuating, they haven't moved all that much all year. 1st quarter was promising as the rates dipped below 7%, and it seemed as if many people started to accept this as the new normal. That seems to have continued through 2nd quarter to a degree. We are seeing mixed results in the housing industry. Some homes are sitting on the market longer, while others are receiving multiple offers right at the start. Homes that have something special to offer, and/or are priced right, tend to move quickly; while others are experiencing price reductions. We are also experiencing the after affects of a crazy couple of years when homes sold in hours or days, not weeks and months. Many buyers are expecting homes to sell quickly, and if 2 weeks goes by panic sets in. Sometimes it just takes time for the right buyer to come along.
I'll be watching what happens when the fed meets on June 11-12, but I don't expect any big changes. Some experts are calling for changes in September but time will tell. We've been kicking that can down the road all year and predictions only count for so much.
Stay tuned for more.
