On Friday December 12thThe Re Think Real Estate Group will be collecting donations of non-perishable food in Edgewater and delivering them to the Arvada Community Food Bank (ACFB). The ACFB is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that has served Arvada and Arvada’s neighboring communities since it was formed in 1982. Donations are accepted year round however there are a few guidelines the ACFB asks donors to follow.  Bulk amounts of food are difficult for the food bank to accept since they require so much time to break down into individual servings.  It is best if all donations are already in single or meal size servings.  Individually wrapped items such as breakfast/granola bars, mac and cheese cups, canned tuna and fruit/jello/pudding cups are perfect for the ACFB’s Backpack Program. ... 12/05/2014

A recent client of mine just bought a home in Edgewater, a small town in the Northwest Denver area located near Sloans lake.  We tried for quite a while to find a home in the $200K range in The Highlands, LoHi, or Berkeley, but things were either too dilapidated, or just too expensive.  So, I tried looking a little further west of Sheridan Blvd and found similar style homes on some great streets just west of Sloans lake.  From Edgewater you can get to the Highlands Square area and the 45th and Tennyson area in just minutes.  Also, there is quick access to downtown Denver and I-70.

Special considerations for Investor loans The talk around the water cooler these days is all about LOANS. Who can get them? At what price? What if I already have a few loans, do I still qualify?  A year or two ago the question was at what price do I get a loan (those were the days!).  Today it is "am I still in the game?"       Here's the deal:  if you have an owner occupied loan and 3 investor loans you cannot buy any more properties and get Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac financing, meaning you can't get a conventional 30-year fixed loan. Now, my hope is that someone reads this and tells me I'm wrong. That would be great!  But as far as I know that is the case.      Where does this leave you?  You can pursue loans that are warehoused by lenders, meaning they are not sold on the backend to Fa... 12/07/2008
