There are never many condominium and townhome sales to report in Cedaredge and the surrounding area. There aren't a lot of these housing options available.

The fall market in this area continues to be strong with a lot of buyer activity in all segments of the market. In the last month we have seen some significant changes in the two bedroom home area of our market as well. Since my last two bedroom home real estate market report, we've seen quite a few of these homes sell and more come on the market.  In the last month four two bedroom homes have sold in the Cedaredge and surrounding area.  Prices for these sales range from $75,000 for a small townhome to $380,000 for an out of town property on acreage.  Also in the last month we've seen eight new homes come on the market.

Nature in this part of Colorado never ceases to amaze me. From wildlife sightings to cloud formations and sunrises and sunsets...there's always something to please the eyes. This sunset picture was taken a few evenings ago. It's overlooking Hart's Basin and Fruit Growers Reservoir. I love the way the reservoir picked up some color from the sky. If you would like more information on Cedaredge and the surrounding area, I would be happy to answer your questions.

I was showing property the other evening, and this big bird kept following me around. I think he was smitten with me. I first got a glimpse of the bird when I pulled into the property. It flew out from a group of trees and across the yard.It stayed nearby even after my buyers showed up. It would make a brief appearance flying from tree to tree. At first I thought it was a big hawk. It wasn't until I saw it a few more times that I realized it was an owl. Due to the size it's probably a Great Horned Owl, but it's coloration is a bit darker than the ones I've seen. Great Horned Owls are very common in the Cedaredge area. When it came time for me to leave, the bird flew ahead of my car and escorted me down the long driveway. It finally landed, and even though it was a bit dark, I decided to... 10/27/2016

Last night was the first full moon after the fall equinox. This moon is always called the Hunter's Moon. It's also called the blood moon, although I didn't see it glowing red last night. Maybe I went to bed too early.This particular Hunter's Moon was also a supermoon which means the orbit is closer to the earth and the moon looks bigger and brighter. The effect of the moon appearing brighter actually started on October 14th. It will continue for several nights, so it's still possible to see a bright, almost full moon tonight. The supermoons also have a stronger effect on tides. Cedaredge is a great place for those that want to view full moons. That's because there are a lot of places out of town where it's easy to get a great view of the full moon without the disruption of city lights. ... 10/16/2016

I have to tell you the operation is going very well. The Cedaredge Animal Shelter is behind me 100%. They are even trying to figure out a shelter for me to have out for the cats, because the weather is getting colder. The three kittens I trapped in July did very well at the shelter. They tamed down nicely. I did go in to check on them, and I couldn't believe how friendly they had become after a few weeks of good care. I wish I had thought to take a picture to share on this blog post. They were all so relaxed, and happy to be petted. Since I trapped those first kittens, I've also managed to trap a few male cats. Of course they've been taken to the shelter where they will be neutered and taken care of. So far the shelter hasn't wanted me to release any of them back into my area. The shelt... 10/09/2016

I think living in Cedaredge, Colorado is wonderful. I've called this small mountain home since 1999. The town sits at the base of Grand Mesa which is known as the world's largest flat top mountain. The mesa has over 300 lakes, and the fishing in a lot of them is very good. Just about ten miles up the road towards the mesa, the national forest starts and goes on for what seems like forever. If you are looking for someplace to live with a lot of shopping and other amenities...this might not be the place for you. Although if you are looking for someplace where you can enjoy the great outdoors and where every drive is a scenic drive, then Cedaredge might be the place for you.

This is a segment of the market where we see a lot of activity. That's because there aren't a lot of foreclosure homes that come on the market.

There flat out aren't a lot of condos and townhomes available in Cedaredge and the surrounding area. This may seem unusual for those that come from a larger populated area, but that's the situation here in this small, rural county. Not many of them were built. Everyone in the building and real estate business has an opinion on why this is. The general consensus is that people move here to enjoy the outdoors and their own space, and they aren't looking to live in a complex where there are regulations, and not a lot of space to call your own. There is no shortage of smaller bungalow style homes, and these serve very well as a condo and townhome alternative. They also give the owner a yard and the ability to do what they want with their own space.The bottom line is these types of homes are... 09/19/2016

Sales activity has been fairly good so far this year and with no foreclosures on the market, this neighborhood is holding it's value very well.
