Listen "Unusual Properties, Divorcing Sellers, Fires, Wage Hikes, & Boulder Market Deep Dive | Podcast #93"
Episode Synopsis
This week, we tackle the challenges of buying and selling unusual property types. From mixed-use and oversized condos to ultra-custom homes that can linger on the market. We share real stories of divorcing sellers at the closing table, dive into City of Boulder’s latest market stats, and highlight key local sales. In the news: the Caribou Village fire in Nederland, rising minimum wages pressuring local businesses, and mortgage rates hitting their lowest levels in a year.
