According to the recent MSN article "66 Cities Where Buying Makes Sense" Colorado Springs real estate is a good investment. This article covered the top 66 cities in the US that had a projected appreciation by 2012 if you purchased a low-priced home today. This article makes a point that buying a home is not a get rich scheme but a long-term investment. Based on this article, you could expect an appreciation of $1,200 - $4,482 on your Colorado Springs home, depending on the interest rate on your loan.

The Colorado Springs real estate market is seeing soemwhat of a "shift" in how homes are selling. Some are selling faster, some slower, some for more money and some for less. One of the more popular questions that we hear nowadays is: What is the difference between a Rent to Own, Lease Option and Lease Purchase Agreements?This is a lot of confusing terminology.
Here is a very simple way to explain the differences. Rent to Own: This is a loose agreement between a home owner/landlord and the tenant/buyer. Basically, the landlord agrees that a portion of the monthly payment goes toward the purchase of the property. Usually, this goes on for an indefinite amount of time and the tenant/buyer usually has no recourse to recoup any money if they (the tenant) decides not to live there long enough to pay off the house.

Are You Safe in Your Own Home?
Your home is your safe haven from the world. At least it is supposed to be. What if it isn't? What if anybody could get in at anytime? Would you still feel safe? My Dad sent me an email yesterday with a link to a news video about bump keys. To say that it was enlightening would be a major understatement.
Have you heard about Bump Keys yet? Apparently they can be purchased online for about $2.00 each and can be used to open almost any lock in seconds. I urge your to watch this video. You may want to upgrade the locks on your Long Beach Homes after watching it.
How does this work? Check out this short video as well.
