1625 square feet | 2 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 2 car garage with bonus space

Buyers in the Colorado Springs real estate market have been waiting for an opportunity like this new listing! It’s a corner unit townhome in the Dublin Townhomes complex along the popular Powers Corridor in Colorado Springs. This beautiful townhome is currently the only unit for sale in the entire complex and happens to be the largest floor plan available in this Pulte townhome build, which was started back in 2004. This complex is in high demand: currently our average days on market (DOM) is 39 days, but this townhome complex is selling in an average of 7 days on the market! Here’s why:

6434 Cavalry Point has brand new carpet on the main and all throughout the upstairs. It boasts of a wonderful and unique floor plan, which includes two master suites with attached full bathrooms. Not only are these full bathrooms convenient for the bedroom occupants, they are exclusively private (meaning you can’t access either bathroom from the hallway). In the formal master bedroom, a buyer will be wowed by the vaulted ceiling and bright ambiance thanks to the large windows. Step onto the plush new carpet to gain access to the ensuite master bathroom, complete with all your favorite features like double vanity, linen closet, and walk in clothes closet.

Between the large bedrooms is a cathartic space perfect as a pajama room to relax in the morning, an office space to tackle your work projects, an art studio to make new amazing creations, a music studio to strum your favorite chords, or even a toy room to help keep the kids clutter away from the main floor. In fact, if you’re looking for a 3rd bedroom, this area could easily be walled-in, which was an option from the builder when these units were built. Although, it would be a tough decision in this bright and open space, complete with various windows that provide a bright and airy area perfect for your creativity!

6434 Cavalry Pt Colorado Springs CO 80923

On the main level of this ideal townhome, you will find more brand new carpet, fresh paint, and many more features. First of all, the entry includes hardwood floors after you’ve stepped through the covered porch and high-quality storm door. This living room / dining area combination makes dinner time easy, with a pass-through window into the kitchen, which also provides tons of natural light to keep this entire main level a place you’ll want to come home. In addition to the great relaxing space, the kitchen is well-appointed with all the appliances you will need in your new home: built in microwave oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, range oven, disposal and plenty of counter space to host smaller kitchen appliances.

Just a quick turn from the kitchen and you will have access to the 2+ car garage, laundry closet, huge coat closet, and powder room. Let’s break that down – there are some really important elements in this floor plan you do NOT want to miss! First of all, the large coat closet was thoughtfully designed with access to the crawl space (to access the furnace and additional storage area), plus wraps under the stairs for those Christmas decorations you only need once a year. Additionally, doing laundry is easy and convenient with the easily accessible laundry closet, which has closing doors to hide the mess. The seller has even agreed to leave the washer and dryer currently in the home, so you shouldn’t have any cost in purchasing new appliances for your new digs. Also, the power room at the end of the hall is discreet and convenient for guests on the main living level. But that garage: 2 car ports, plus an additional nook perfect for a workbench, extra storage shelves, or any other items that need extra room so you can fully use you garage space and pull in both cars (or motorcycles, since we have 300+ days of sunshine in Colorado).

But there’s more than just the interior to this amazing townhome – let’s talk about the features all around. The corner unit is the ideal location in the complex, with only one attached neighbor. Good thing the builder was thoughtful and understood that we don’t want to hear our neighbors! These units are quite and well-built for maximum privacy. Plus, once you step outside the garage, you’ll be facing one of the few green areas in the complex, perfect for walking the dog or a family picnic. It’s a great space to spread out and relax when you’re ready to get outside. But perhaps you want to go further? You won’t have to go far: there are gas stations, shopping, and award-winning restaurants within walking distance of your new home including Salsa Brava Mexican Grill, Over Easy Daytime Eatery (did someone say brunch?) and Fuzzy’s Tacos (um, yeah, margaritas and tacos like you’ve never had before). Plus, this complex is just far enough off the Powers corridor to provide plenty of convenience to additional restaurants, shopping, entertainment, health clubs (and much more), but still set back enough for privacy and a quiet setting away from the traffic. Not only are the entertainment options close, but also practical locations like schools, parks, hospitals and Falcon District 49 schools.

Don’t forget, the home is in an HOA community. This means you don’t have to worry about mowing lawns, paying for trash pick up, shoveling snow, repainting your home, replacing siding, building new fences, re-roofing your home, laying a new driveway, or any of the other exterior issues that costs homeowners tens-of-thousands of dollars every year. It’s all taken care of for you. In fact, a hail storm in 2015 decimated much of this area. Thankfully, the HOA coordinated getting all the buildings re-roofed and siding replaced throughout the complex in 2017! HOA fees are currently at $138 per month, with an annual fee of $157 a year (about $39 per month). This complex is unique as it’s part of two different HOA associations: Dublin Townhomes and Stetson Hills Master HOA. This ensures management and upkeep of the area, with added bonuses like trash pick up. So, even at just under $1800 per year of HOA fees, keep in mind a new roof, new fence, house painting, new driveway and many more homeowner costs would be more than double that amount for a single event. This is easy, maintenance free living for a fraction of the costs because you’re splitting expenses with your neighbors!

Overall, the seller has meticulously renovated and maintained this amazing home. We would love to show you this amazing listing so contact the listing agent for more information or to schedule a preview: Toby Lorenc (719) 332-4816

Is 2018 The Year To Cash In?

February 14, 2018 by Sylvia Jennings

Is it YOUR year?

If you live here and own a home, you’re $70,000 richer than you were 24 months ago. That’s how much home values have risen since January of 2016. Ka-ching! In statistics just released by the Pikes Peak Association of REALTORS (PPAR), the average single family home is selling for $333,000, compared to $263,000 in January 2016. In 5 years, local home prices have soared by $100,000. Record demand, low supply and a strong economy have pushed local home prices up much faster here than the Denver metro area, making Colorado Springs one of the 10 hottest housing markets in the country: 2018 Top 10 Housing Markets. We’re predicting another record year for home sales with Millennials leading the stampede. Young people are getting better jobs and jumping into the housing market. And the other trend to watch is move-up buyers. We’ll see thousands of local homeowners cash in this year to use their growing equity as a down payment on the next home of their dreams. With some spiffing up, your home could potentially sell for $20,000 or $30,000 more. In many cases, it’s worthwhile to make major improvements in order to get top dollar. If you want to avoid a costly mistake, consult with your real estate agent first. We can tell you how much a project is worth, help you decide what to do, and refer you to a trustworthy pro to do the job if it’s beyond your expertise.

6434 Cavalry Pt Colorado Springs CO 80923 Coming Soon in Dublin Townhomes

February 6, 2018 by Toby Lorenc

6434 Cavalry Pt Colorado Springs CO 80923

6434 Cavalry Pt Colorado Springs CO 80923 coming soon in Dublin Townhomes, listed by real estate agent Toby Lorenc. Toby’s very familiar with the Dublin Townhome HOA community as he is currently working for another seller to close on their home in early March 2018.

The new listing at 6434 Cavalry Point is the largest of the units in the Dublin Townhomes, originally built by Pulte Homes in 2004/2005. This corner unit is a unique floor plan with 1625 square feet of living space, plus a 549 square foot double car attached garage. The large garage area also includes a cubby, perfect for a workshop or built in shelving.

Inside this Colorado Springs townhome, you will find a practical layout with a large front room and dining area on the main floor, which flows nicely into the large kitchen, complete with all appliances. Sometimes in this real estate market, sellers are not including certain appliances, like the refrigerator or washer and dryer. However, in this case, the future buyer will not have to worry about going out and purchasing these items as they are included in the sale of the home. The kitchen area also includes access to the 2-car attached garage, half bathroom, as well as a deep storage and coat closet under the staircase. This closet is the homeowners access to the crawlspace, which is ideal for storage and has access to the forced air furnace.

Head upstairs and you will find an incredible open loft space, ready for a home office, craft room, music area, or anything else the buyer can imagine. Down the road, this space could also be converted to a third bedroom as the needs change for the family or individuals living in the townhouse. The open loft space includes access to both bedrooms and the entire upstairs has brand new carpet. In the master bedroom at one end of the hall, you will find high ceilings with a fan to keep you cool in the summer. The master bedroom also has an attached full bathroom with double vanities and all new carpet in the bedroom, including the large walk-in closet. On the other side of the hallway, the 2nd bedroom has plenty of space and plenty of storage, with a double closet and attached full bathroom, also accessible from the upstairs hallway.

Perhaps the best part is you don’t have to worry about the exterior maintenance of your townhome! The Dublin Townhomes HOA fee covers exterior maintenance, where expenses can add up quickly on big projects like roofs, siding and painting, paving streets and more. In fact, in 2015, there was a major hailstorm which damaged roofing and siding throughout the complex and in many parts of Colorado Springs. These have now been fully replaced and repaired thanks to the coordination of the HOA (homeowners association). The monthly HOA fee of $138 also covers the smaller things that take up time, like mowing the lawn, shoveling the snow off walkways and porches, and basic landscape maintenance to take care of trees, sidewalks, fencing, etc. Along with Dublin Townhomes HOA, there is a secondary HOA for this townhome community. It is part of the Stetson Hills Master HOA, which is currently $39.25 quarterly (or $157 per year). This includes a variety of things, including trash pick up for homeowners including in your HOA fee.

Not only does this pristine townhome have a great location in the complex, it has an extremely convenient location in the city. The townhome sits in the complex as an end unit in the building, and just steps from a large area of open space which is perfect for walking dogs, throwing the Frisbee or a summer picnic. Plus, you are located within walking distance of award winning restaurants, including Over Easy Eatery, Fuzzy’s Taco Shop and Salsa Brava Mexican Grill. The Powers Corridor is just a block from the townhome, which provides easy access to tons of shopping, popular restaurants, entertainment and connection to major transportation hubs.

PikeRide, Legacy Loop, and Bike Lanes Improve Bicycling Downtown COS

January 19, 2018 by Toby Lorenc

Pike Ride Bike Share launches in Colorado Springs June 2018.

Getting around Downtown Colorado Springs is going to be a lot easier this year – specifically for bicyclists. City planners, traffic engineers, tourism and outdoor recreation groups, plus many more have come together to create solutions for an often mentioned challenge of Colorado Springs: Transportation. Public transit took a drastic change for the better back in 2014 when both Lyft and Uber started serving the Colorado Springs region. Suddenly citizens had quick and affordable ways to commute by car. But this didn’t help the walk-ability or short distance trips, not to mention opportunities for recreation. Three major initiatives are going to change the way both tourist and locals get around Downtown Colorado Springs, plus improve safety and convenience for bike riders.

PikeRide Bike Share

Originally planned to be called PikeCycle, PikeRide is a bike share service which will have multiple bike stations around the heart of the city (phase 1 includes a perimeter of Fillmore to Fountain and I-25 to Union). If you’re not familiar with the concept of bikeshare, basically it allows riders to grab any of the available 208 bikes from one of many 26 bike racks (called “hubs”) throughout the greater Legacy Loop area. By simply using a free mobile app, the biker can both unlock and pay for his or her ride and return the bike to any station. You can also purchase extended memberships for the day, month or year which comes with perks like free rides. The program will be managed by Downtown Ventures, which is a non-profit segment of the Downtown Partnership. It may seem like minimal effort and staffing needed, but when you think through distributing bikes equally among the stations, maintenance of bikes, and other customer service issues, it will require a combination of full and part time staff. Although the Downtown Partnership and Kaiser Permanente are heading up the effort, PikeRide is still looking for sponsors and those interested in membership opportunities, and can be contacted at (719) 886-0088. Download the BCycle mobile app so you are ready to ride Colorado Springs in June 2018! Plus, the same app and bike share system work in both Boulder and Denver, so you’ll be able to use your account up and down the front range, plus in nearly 40 other cities across the nation.

Legacy Loop Trail

Legacy Loop is a thoughtful and connected trail system around the greater downtown Colorado Springs area, perfect for bike riding, walking, jogging, and more. It’s 10 miles of trail systems to connect major attractions and parks, including Monument Valley Park and America the Beautiful Park, where events and activities are often scheduled. The Legacy Loop Trail System will help with connectivity and encourage the outdoor spirit of wellness Colorado Springs is known for nationwide. It makes daily transportation easier, plus encourages more participation in events like Bike To Work Day. As we increase our exposure in the bicycling community, we are also more likely to build the tourism excitement for the city by locking in key events like the Colorado Classic Bike Race we hosted in 2017.

Dedicated and Protected Bike Lanes

If you’re not on the Legacy Loop Trail, navigating through traffic downtown can be tricky, especially on busy streets like Tejon Street and Nevada Avenue. With increased bicycle traffic, Downtown Partnership, City Government, and other groups are coming together to provide better bike lanes on streets throughout Colorado Springs, with a focus on downtown. This involves incorporating marked and designated bike lanes onto city streets and even some reconstruction of the streets, parking, and landscaping to protect cyclists. For instance, you will start seeing parking protected bike lanes, where parked cars serve as a barrier between the traffic and bicyclist to help keep moving traffic separated from bicyclists. Other practices will be used to accomplish the same goal, including buffered bikes lane, which are typically street marking that create additional space between the rider and traffic, and additional signage and bike lanes painted bright green as an additional alert to drivers to stay in their lane and watch for bicycle traffic. Although some of these changes will mean additional funds and design, the city is also implementing many of the projects at the same time other work is being done, such as repaving roads, which will help save tax payer dollars.

Overall, these major projects are the work of many hours of planning and input from various community groups. These three key projects will help accomplish 5 key goals as noted on the Springs.gov webiste: Safety, Viability, Integration, Accessibility and Ridership.

The bike master plan can be found on the City of Colorado Springs website (https://coloradosprings.gov/bikeplan), as well as helpful tools like the city bike map, bike safety tips, and further information about various phases and execution of these (and more) bike projects.

From Under Contract to Back on the Market – Is That Bad?

December 7, 2017 by Toby Lorenc

Is back on market a bad thing?

With such a busy, seller’s real estate market right now in Southern Colorado, why would any under contract home “fall out of contract” and go back on the market? You’ve seen real estate agents advertise houses as “Back on the Market” or perhaps you thought you missed out on buying a home, then it’s suddenly active again when you’re searching the MLS. Many buyers ask questions like:

Is this something you should be worried about?

Why didn’t it sell the first time?

Is there something wrong with the house?

Notice to Terminate Reason Table

As you can see from the Notice to Terminate contract, the buyer has lots of reasons why they can terminate a contract. The seller also has flexibility after receiving certain information, but the seller doesn’t have nearly as many chances to “cancel the contract.” So, typically when we see a house go back on the market, it’s generated from the buyer’s side of the transaction, although sometimes not by the buyer’s choice.

There are a lot of reasons why this could happen and they’re hardly ever the same. Although, we tend to see 3 major categories that a canceled contract often falls into, which typically leads to the home going back on the market:

Home Inspection or Appraisal Issues (House problems)

Inspection and appraisal can be stressful events for both buyers and seller. The inspector could find a major problem with the home or even a minor problem which parties can’t agree who will pay to fix. As part of the inspection process, even before the day of inspection, the buyer has the right to investigate and research the home. This could lead to discoveries that may change the buyer’s name including: special taxing districts or fees the buyer wasn’t expecting; inability to get or dissatisfaction with future homeowners insurance; the home is in a flight pattern; the buyer doesn’t like the neighborhood; the history of the home makes the buyer uncomfortable (deaths/suicides, drug problems, rumors from neighbors, etc). Plus, if the home doesn’t appraise for the contracted value and the parties can’t agree on a selling price, the deal may die with the finalized appraisal.
These are just examples, but overall, we typically see a buyer cancel a contract before one of these deadlines. There are also additional deadlines, where the buyers have the chance to look through HOA documents, title paperwork and other information. Although these dates may vary from the inspection deadline, many of them overlap and happen simultaneously. While they can put a home back on the market for various reasons, inspection and appraisal problems are the most common.

Buyer Financing and Loan Approval (Buyer Problems)

Although the buyer may be qualified to purchase the home when they go under contract, things can change. For instance: if they buyer loses a job or another stream of income; if the buyer suddenly makes a large purchase while under contract; if the purchase of the new home was contingent on the buyer selling his current house and the sale falls through or if the buyers suddenly receive or learn of a judgement against them.

Plus, anytime there’s a loan involved, the process can be complicated, especially depending on the type of financing. Even a conventional home loan can get flagged near the last few days in underwriting. That’s why it’s important to do your research on the lender – as a buyer, it will keep you from spending unnecessary money and headaches and as a seller, it will help decrease the likelihood of having to put your house back on the market.

Buyers simply change their minds (Buyer Decisions)

Just when you think you’ve seen everything, another creative reason comes along. From suspicions of a house being haunted, to the overwhelming problem of not being able to match the paint colors (yeah, that’s a real one), there are a million reasons a buyer may back out of a contract.
Other real-life reasons include (these were collected from agents around the country):

Buyer went to jail
God told them to not buy
The house had bad feng shui
Buyer passed away while under contract
Ex-wife lived across the street
Buyer saw a mouse in the house
Strange statues in the neighbors yard
Buyers (a couple) decided to get a divorce
There was a bad omen
Their lifecoach said it wasn’t in sync with their souls

You can always ask for previous inspection reports or reasons, but the main point here is that just because a house goes back on the market doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with the house itself. Sometimes the listing agent will disclose why they’re back to active status in the MLS, and sometimes they won’t get into too much detail. Unless there is a material defect that was uncovered, they are really not required to give you the details and a smart agent will determine what information to release and still best represent their client.

If you’re interested in a home that’s come back on the market, have your favorite real estate agent check-in with the listing agent to gather additional information that could give you the upper-hand when making your offer!

1924 Berkshire Ln Colorado Springs CO 80909 Under Contract

November 10, 2017 by Toby Lorenc

1924 Berkshire Ln Colorado Springs CO 80909 Under Contract

1924 Berkshire Ln Colorado Springs CO 80909

Our agents are hard at work and haven’t seen much of a slow down, which we typically would this time of year. But we are still seeing homes going under contract quickly, especially in the $450,000 or less price range.

Recently, after 11 days on the market, 1924 Berkshire Ln went under contract. We had competing offers and now have a signed contract over list price. This is the ideal situation for a seller, when buyer’s are literally fighting over the seller’s property.

Remember too, that although many homes are going under contract the same day, they are listed or within a few days, our average days on market in the Colorado Springs area is currently 29 days on market. Even 11 days is still less than the average and makes for a happy seller.

1924 Berkshire Ln Colorado Springs CO 80909 Under Contract

Now, the process begins of going through the contract deadlines and the buyer’s opportunity to do an inspection, appraisal and look through important documents and information which allows them to make sure this is the exact property they want. Everything from confirming they can get homeowners insurance for the home, to the process of inspecting the home for any major defects or safety issues.

1924 Berkshire Ln Colorado Springs CO 80909 Under Contract

Truth be told, the Colorado Real Estate contract is definitely written in favor of the buyer. It gives you the the ability to set up multiple deadlines and opportunities to gather information and due diligence to check just about any resources that may influence your decision to buy a home and get a loan that’s satisfactory. That’s a great thing for you as a buyer! Talk to your favorite real estate agent for more details about your rights and opportunities as a homebuyer.

We’ll keep you update on that status of this property, plus you can always use our website to search and find the perfect home for you.
