Quick Rebound Predicted For Colorado's Economy
Sunday, October 11th, 2009 at 5:03pm. 420 Views, 0 Comments.
According to the University of Colorado at Boulder's leading economist, Colorado appears to be poised as amongst the first states to exit this recession as reported by The Denver Business Journal.
At a gathering of clients of Denver-based financial-planning firm, Richard Wobbekind indicated that "We may be one of the first states out". He further stated that if technology and business spending fuel the recovery, as some analysts expect given anemic consumer spending, then Colorado is in a strong position to benefit. Current forecasts call for Colorado's to return to a 0.4 percent job growth in 2010 placing it in the fourth-best position among all states.
Any recovery will be sluggish at best, Wobbekind cautioned. But unlike some economists, he doesn't expect…

Denver’s Labor Market Stronger Than Most Cities
Wednesday, October 7th, 2009 at 11:26pm. 289 Views, 0 Comments.

In comparison, jobs in the nation’s strongest job market--Austin, Texas-- grew 16.6 percent between 2004 and 2009, and decreased 1.2 percent between 2008 and 2009. Rounding out the top five strongest labor markets on the Portfolio.com list were San Antonio; Baton Rouge, La.;…

Denver is the second most popular American city to live in, according to a recent Harris Interactive poll.

New York City topped the list of favorite cities. It was…

Denver Ranked Best City To Buy A Home
Tuesday, July 14th, 2009 at 12:28am. 679 Views, 0 Comments.
Forbes magazine has named Denver the top city to buy a home in a study of the 25 largest U.S. metro areas. The ranking was based on three key criteria: the change in price per square foot, the frequency of real estate transactions, and how evenly home-sales activity is distributed in a metro area.
In Denver, the average price per square foot of housing space increased 5.7 percent between February and March 2009. Transactions decreased 8.4 percent between March 2008 and March 2009, which was less of a drop than many cities.
