Over the last couple of week, it has been dipping into the 40's at night, and noticed this tree changing leaves already.    This is in my neighborhood, and was a bit shocked to see it.    This is a bit early to see leaves changing in Denver, as this is the time for the trees to change in the mountains, not down here!I am wondering if it is changing due to being such a young tree.   None of the other trees are changing quite yet.   Looks like Fall is right around the corner!  09/27/2023

Who is this radio show for?  It's hard to tell who listens while sitting in the studio alone. It's for the general public's education.  It is for those who are thinking about buying or selling.  It is for those who have had a RE transaction and want to share their experience.It's for my past, present, and future buyers and sellers. It is for Realtors® (new and seasoned), brokers, RE professionals such as inspectors, contractors, title people, and lenders who share and learn from each other. It's for those who love Real Estate. Recently, someone told me her husband listens weekly, and she knows better than to "bother" him between 12 and 1 on Sundays.  The funny thing is, they have absolutely no plans of moving.  And many of my knowledgeable callers are lifelong renters and choose never t... 09/27/2023
