In a perfect world, I would be a fixer-upper/flipper. Nothing. Nothing gets my creative juices flowing like a new nest waiting to be feathered. And in Colorado Mike and I have now purchased and flipped 6 homes since 1996. The market is like a swinging door with Buyers and Sellers constantly moving and shaking. Plus, it is an International market which means your field of draw is even larger than most. The other thing that makes flipping in the Rockies so much fun is that there is a new store in town.

When we bought the condo in 2012 David transformed a little over 1000 sf into the highest per sf sale in all of the condos. We asked David Medina if he were up for doing it again. He was. So here is what we bought... and I'm thinking you can also see why we bought it. Yes, A River Runs Through It! Fly fishing happens there too, but there have been no sightings of...
