Orange Orchard, Boulder Colorado

With a nice variety of homes on large lots (minimum of 1/3 acre) and many with lovely mature trees, neighborhood parks and trails, the Orange Orchard neighborhood offers a peaceful country feeling, yet is so very close to all Boulder has to offer.

His, HERS, who's? What is a HERS rating?

What is a HERS rating? ((((According to my wife my "HERS" rating has been down lately)))) His... HERS... who cares? Well today’s buyer is beginning to care, since the quality of life and the amount of the energy a home uses can be directly related the HERS score. Didn’t the marriage councilor tell me not to keep score? Woops I digress. As any smart man knows, it is about her, or in this case HERS, which stands for Home Energy Rating System.

Now is a great time to buy!

On November 6th, 2009, Obama agreed to extend the existing $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers. The credit will also be extended to a slightly larger pool of buyers by offering a credit of up to $6,500 to repeat buyers who have owned their current homes for at least five years. Income caps for existing owners are $125,000 for single filers and $225,000 for joint filers. These buyers are limited to a purchase price of up to $800,000. The tax credits are available to homebuyers who sign sales agreements by the end of April, 2010. They would have until the end of June 2010 to close on their new homes. This is great news and will definitely help stimulate both buyers and sellers. Click here to search for homes in Boulder,…
