Berthoud

The Town of Berthoud is located in Larimer county, approximately halfway between the cities of Fort Collins and Denver. As of the 2010 U.S. census, Berthoud's population was 5105. Berthoud is situated north of the Little Thompson River and is a great place to live! Nicknamed the "Garden Spot of Colorado," the town of Berthoud is beautiful. In many parts of town, trees over-arch the city streets.

There is an annual community parade on "Berthoud Day", which occurs on the first Saturday in June and ends in Berthoud Park, where families gather and enjoy music in a picnic-like atmosphere. Another community event held annually in June is "Berthoud Outdoor Quilt Show", in which quilters display their works in Fickel Park. Fickel Park also is growing a sculpture park with many new sculptures placed each year. The sculptures have brought a new look to the park and the town. Through the summer, the town also plays host to its farmers' market which occurs every Thursday and is sponsored by the town's main street organization.

Berthoud is home to a small arts community that includes the Berthoud Dance Company, the Moon Theatre Company, the Berthoud Arts and Humanities Alliance and the Wildfire Community Arts Center, which includes a small blackbox theater.

Are We in a Housing Crisis?

April 13, 2020 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

“Am I going to lose the appreciation I’ve gained on my house in the last few years?” “Will I be able to get a really good deal on a house this summer?” “Are we all going to die and go to hell?” As a real estate agent, I can give you a best guess as a professional on the first two questions. I can only speculate on the last one. Life is different now. It will never be the same again. But that’s a good thing. Humans are nothing but change agents, evolving and getting out of our own way and …

Good time to Sell–or Buy?

July 25, 2019 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

Is this the best time to sell your home? Maybe. Common belief says that May and June are the best months to sell your home, but July is still pretty good. Buyers are looking despite vacations, hot weather and music festivals. I’ve noticed quite a bit of homes with price reductions recently, especially Fort Collins and Loveland. Old Town Fort Collins also has 15 listings below $350k still on the market and have been for a couple of weeks. My buyers are primarily looking for larger family …

Brace Yourself for New Property Values

April 30, 2019 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

Larimer County Home Values Continue Upward Good news or Bad news? The good news is that Larimer County home values are strong. The bad news is that it increases your property values...but by how much? It's that time again... Every two years Larimer County homeowners are sent a postcard from the county assessor with their new property values and property taxes. Value is based on home sales during the 2 years prior to June 30, 2018.  It's no surprise it keeps going up. Those who own homes in the …

Time to Plan is Now

September 17, 2018 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

I'm not a party bus kind of gal. But I saw the bus tour of the Parade of Homes on Facebook, sponsored by the northern Colorado Women's Council of Realtors and I thought, why not? I signed up and hopped on board at noon on a very hot day last week and headed off to Berthoud, CO. The bus was loud and I was definitely the oldest real estate agent on board but the A/C was working and there was plenty of water along with other offerings. But day drinking is not a skill I possess. Regardless, …

Envisioning a Different Housing Market

April 29, 2017 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

“Weld County is the fourth most unaffordable county in the U.S. when taking into account median home prices and the average earning of wages, according to a new report by ATTOM Data Solutions.” http://www.greeleytribune.com/news/business/report-four-counties-in-colorado-including-weld-top-the-list-of-home-unaffordability/ Yikes! Weld County’s median price for a home, $280,000 as of today, may be almost $100,000 cheaper than Larimer County’s, but it’s a median price increase of 12% from last …

How To Buy a House This Spring

March 30, 2017 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

I hate headlines that offer the possibility of achieving a goal, like How to Lose Those Last 10 Lbs. You hope they’re going to tell you a secret only to be told to exercise and eat less. Duh. I’m afraid that’s what my article is going to say. Want to Buy a House? Be prepared to give up some contingencies, have a decent down payment and don’t give up. Housing Gridlock? According to Trulia, housing inventory hit a new low in the first quarter of 2017. “Recovering home values have proven to be …
