"Summer's settling in, the graduation caps have been tossed, and the Berthoud market is finding a calmer rhythm. Let's talk about what that means for you."

Heads up: Berthoud's market has settled into a healthier balance. Homes are taking closer to two months to sell and prices are holding roughly steady year-over-year, giving buyers room to negotiate and well-priced sellers a steady path to closing.

Laura's Take

Berthoud has cooled off in the best way. Homes are sitting closer to two months now instead of flying off in a single weekend, and prices have held roughly steady compared to a year ago. That's a healthier market for buyers and sellers both.

For buyers, that means room to think, time for a real inspection, and an actual shot at negotiating. With around 60 homes on the market in town, you have choices again. Rates are still in the mid to high 6s, not where any of us want them, but they've eased back a touch. Worth a conversation with your lender.

Sellers, don't read "slower" as "soft." Homes that are priced right and show well are still moving. The buyers are out there, they're just pickier than they were a couple years ago. And to all the new graduates and their families, congratulations. A lot of you are thinking about the next chapter right now, and I'm always happy to help you map it out.

Laura's Tips

June Is Home Safety Month, So Take the Walk-Through

June is National Home Safety Month, and it's a good excuse to spend an hour making your house safer. Test every smoke and carbon monoxide detector, swap the batteries, and check the date on your fire extinguisher. Clear out the dryer lint, trim back any dry brush close to the house before peak fire season, and make sure everyone in the family knows where the gas and water shutoffs are. If you've got kids home for the summer, walk the stairs, railings, and any pool or fence gates together.

Laura's quick tip: Thinking about selling? A quick documented safety check, detectors, water heater straps, GFCI outlets, is one of the cheapest ways to head off surprises when the buyer's inspector shows up.

Community Spotlight

Saturday Mornings Belong at the Longmont Farmers Market

The Longmont Farmers Market is back in full swing at the Boulder County Fairgrounds, corner of Hover and Boston, every Saturday from 8 to 1 through late November. It's a growers-only market, so the person selling you tomatoes is the same person who grew them. You'll find more than 100 local vendors, plenty of free parking, and on the fourth Saturday of each month local artisans join in with handmade goods, jewelry, and body care. Grab a coffee, fill a bag with Colorado produce, and you've found the easiest way to spend a summer morning in town. This is the kind of thing that makes people fall in love with a community, and it sells houses better than any flyer I could write.
