New Living Options in Downtown Colorado Springs

As a native of Colorado Springs, it's exciting to watch the city grow and change to meet the needs and desires of the current population. The next big step for the Downtown Colorado Springs area is additional living space, both short term and long term. There are a number of projects I'm looking forward to that will drastically start changing the downtown culture.

10-story Hilton Garden Inn to be completed in 2018

First of all, ground has been broken on the first high rise to be built in Colorado Springs since 2001. There's a few reasons for this but perhaps the main one is we have incredible views of the Rocky Mountains and each tall building erected block these views more and more. However, the balance is wanting a more vibrant downtown which means attracting tourists and giving them some options of places to stay in the heart of the city. Currently, there are really only 2 hotels in the core of downtown which include the Antlers and the Wyndham Grand Mining Exchange Hotel. Now, with the addition of the Hilton Garden Inn, we'll have an additional 167 rooms along with shops and hotel amenities like a restaurant and bar.

Loft living in Downtown Colorado Springs

Next, another loft project is near completion in the core of downtown, just a block from the new Hilton Garden Inn. The Bijou Lofts, located directly across the street from historic Acacia Park, consist of 9-units available for purchase. The original building has been modified and a second floor added where the lofts are located. Units are just under 1,000 square feet and start in the low $300,000's.

Blue Dot Place Apartments in Colorado Springs

About a year ago, there was another project that quickly gained interest and exposure. The Blue Dot Place apartments are a trendy and hip place to live, located on Nevada Avenue next to coffee shops, bars, and breweries. The units filled up quickly and created a waiting list to live here. Now, unit rentals start around $1100 per month and provide about 800 square feet of living space, plus numerous amenities.

Perhaps the most exciting part of the growth of downtown Colorado Springs is what's coming. There are rumors of more hotels, lofts, and apartments all within the next few years as the city works in close conjunction with the Downtown Partnership. For more information on any of these buildings or additional living options in the downtown area, please contact me.

Offer code for CenturyLink Colorado Springs

I'm always looking for ways to help save my Colorado Springs real estate friends, family, and clients money. High-speed internet and cable tv are often significant bills for a household yet services that most families don't want to be without.

I've personally tried the two major services here in town for cable television and internet service, and I like aspects of each one. Depending on the area of town you live, some services or high-speeds may not be available to you. However, for the money, I like using CenturyLink. Even better, I'm able to provide my clients a discount by granting you free activation on internet or tv service. All you have to do is call CenturyLink at (719) 591-0540 and ask for offer 439586.

I hope this program that I've setup with CenturyLink will help you and your household save money.

Know Thy Neighbor

Meet your neighbors

As a real estate agent, it still amazes me for as much time as we spend in our homes, and what sacred places houses are to families, many of us still don't interact with our neighbors. I'm guilty of it too. I often have opportunities to reach out and there's always an excuse to keep to myself: I'm too tired, I'm in a hurry, they've never reached out to me, etc. The truth is, like any relationship, it takes work.
For those of you who are close with those around you on your street or town know about the many benefits this relationship brings:

Security and Safety
You build a team to watch your house, cars, and property. They learn your schedule and know the things that are typical for you and your family so that when something looks suspicious they can notify the proper authorities.

It Takes a Village to Raise a Child
Have you ever heard this common proverb? It's true and becomes more important as parents are working longer hours with their kids managing at home alone. I remember growing up how important our neighbors were in our lives, from being a last-minute babysitter to trusting them with an extra key to our house when we were locked out.

Share and Save

Let's face it - we really don't all need our own disco balls, underwater cameras, snow blowers, ladders, etc. Many homeowners are paying to store their "extra stuff" with monthly storage unit costs. So why are we not sharing and saving with our neighbors? There are even websites like Peerby.com to coordinate your sharing efforts. In fact, some are even willing to share their cars, bicycles, and boats but sometimes you don't need anything more than a simple cup of sugar.

So what can you do starting today? Well, some of us just need to get out of our shells and get the courage to talk to the neighbor, take them cookies, or help shovel their walk without being asked. There are also great websites to help you connect with your neighbors (like NextDoor) which also provide ways to chat, share information and announce events around you.

Take the courage today to reach out and start forming relationships with your neighbors!
