Colorado Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17291_colorado_gardnerreportq2_masthead

Posted in Colorado Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Colorado added 62,000 new jobs over the past 12 months, an increase of 2.4% over this time last year. All of the metropolitan markets included in this report saw annual employment growth, with substantial growth in Boulder (4.7%) and Fort Collins (+4.1%), and more modest growth in Grand Junction (0.3%).

Southern California Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17290_socal_gardnerreportq2_masthead

Posted in Southern California Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


The markets covered by this report—Los Angeles, San Diego, San Bernardino, Orange, and Riverside—added 131,900 new jobs between May 2016 and May 2017. As a result, the unemployment rate dropped from 4.7% to 3.9%. Growth in the Southern California market has started to taper, but this is unsurprising given our place in the current economic expansion.

Posted in Nevada Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate

Western Washington Real Estate Market Update

Thumb_17288_wwagardnerreportq2_masthead

Posted in Western Washington Real Estate Market Update by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


The Washington State economy has been expanding at a rapid pace but we are seeing a slowdown as the state grows closer to full employment. Given the solid growth, I would expect to see income growth move markedly higher, though this has yet to materialize. I anticipate that we will see faster income growth in the second half of the year. I still believe that the state will add around 70,000 jobs

Why Owning a Home is Such a Smart Investment

Thumb_dreamstime_m_33598399__1_

Posted in Buying by Tara Sharp


The first question you need to ask yourself is, “Am I disciplined enough to invest in stocks?” According to two professors who recently studied 30 years of personal-finance performance, you need to be someone with exceptional financial discipline if you want to earn real money in the stock market.

How to Combat the 5 Most Common Remodeling Monkey Wrenches

Thumb_monkeywrenches4

Posted in Houzz.com by Houzz.com


There’s a lot to think about, select and organize on a remodeling project, whether it’s a single room or a whole-house remodel. Small projects often have the same list of tasks as big projects, and the same potential for material selection and delivery to throw your schedule for a loop. Of course, anything can go wrong during a remodel, but some parts of your remodel will cause more difficulty...

Why aren’t homebuilders building more homes?

Thumb_dreamstime_m_26864020

Posted in Inman News by Matthew Gardner, Chief Economist, Windermere Real Estate


Housing markets all across the U.S. are suffering from serious shortages of homes for sale, and this isn’t expected to change in the foreseeable future. When I think about inventory levels and the fact that demand is clearly outstripping supply, it makes me question why homebuilders aren’t stepping up to the plate to meet all this pent-up demand.
