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.

Time to Plan is Now

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, …

“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!

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 …

Selling & Buying Homes in the Snow

January 5, 2017 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

Nobody wants to look at homes when its snowing and zero degrees outside. So, it’s great time to buy. And if you’re selling, make sure your home is the warm and welcoming oasis buyers are looking for.

Go East, Wanna-Be Home Buyer!

October 13, 2016 by Mary Roberts, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI Leave a Comment

It was inevitable and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to predict that home prices would be lower east of I-25 than west of I-25. By almost $100,000 to be more precise. That meant that homeowners flocked to the east to purchase a home and gave rise to double digit appreciation, more than its neighbors to the west which experienced anywhere from Loveland/Berthoud (1.4% appreciation) to Fort Collins (6.4%) and Longmont, a bit of an outlier at 11% appreciation. Some prognosticators said that …
