    20 Nov 2009 | 12:02 pm
    While it’s hard to take Josh McDaniels‘ claims that, if he feels up to it, QB Kyle Orton will start on Sunday against San Diego despite missing a week of practice seriously, the coach continues to insist this is the case. The New York Times’ Fifth Down Blog wonders aloud what type of message this sends Chris Simms. The Josh McDaniels dossier is still being written, so it’s hard to tell how the Broncos will react after scoring only 34 points in the past three weeks and losing their edge on defense. McDaniels must show he can lead his team through its first rash of injuries.

The Buffs, who led by as many as 11 points, fell 31-28 to OSU and dropped to 3-8 overall Thursday on national TV.

    I’m a little late this month with the real estate market statistics for Denver.  It’s been a busy month!  Good news for buyers, sellers and real estate brokers. Denver sales continue to show bifurcated results - low to mid range homes selling like crazy, higher end homes still languishing a bit. Inventory numbers are down from September - over 18% down.  Days on market is down too, indicating increased sales rates.   Inventory naturally adjusts this time of year, but sales paces have increased for some segments of the market causing further inventory reductions.

Homebuyers will now have two tax credits available. The original $8,000 for first time buyers - actually for buyers who haven’t owned a home in the previous 3 years.  As well as a second credit available to current homeowners of $6,500.  To be eligible, buyers must have lived in their…

After a 4 1/2 day marathon of 56 houses, we kind of narrowed it down to two possibilities. These buyers are looking in a fairly significant price point.  Not uber high-end, but enough to buy a very nice home in a very nice location.

With inventory naturally shrinking as we round into fourth quarter, Buyers are left with choosing a currently available home or waiting to see what might come on the market in coming months.  It’s not likely that many new properties will be listed from Halloween through the new year, and many buyers are faced with choosing between buying a home they’ve seen or waiting until after the first of the year when inventory will begin to build.

    Relocating buyers often ask how much earnest money they’ll need when they make an offer on Denver real estate. My answer? “It depends.” Some brokers and sellers request 3% some request 10%.  Earnest money requests/requirements are entered in the MLS, so your Buyer Agent can tell you what the sellers have requested.  3% is more the norm for mid-priced homes, 10% is extremely high. However, for high end homes, closer to 10% isn’t too unusual. What the sellers request and what the buyers provide are not always the same amount. When you prepare an offer for a property,…
