One day it’s snow boots, the next it’s patios and iced coffee. Trailheads fill up overnight, everyone suddenly has flowers (too early), and the dogs are back out in full force.
It’s a little chaotic… but it’s also one of the best times to live here.
And in real estate? This is when things really start to pick up.
If you know, you know.
You wake up to snow-covered sidewalks… and by the afternoon, you’re debating sandals.
Layers aren’t optional this time of year. They’re essential.
Every year, without fail.
We get one warm week and suddenly everyone is at the garden center convincing themselves it’s time.
And if you’ve lived here long enough, you already know the rule: wait until after Mother’s Day.
According to the Colorado State University Extension, late spring frost is common across Colorado, which is why planting too early can be risky.
Wait until after Mother’s Day.
Do we follow it? Absolutely not.
The second the sun comes out, Colorado collectively decides to go outside.
Hiking, biking, walking… everything fills up fast.
It’s like we’ve all been waiting (because we have).
Patios, parks, sidewalks…
It’s basically dog season again.
And honestly, it might be the best part of spring.
This is the one I notice right away.
More homes hit the market.
More buyers are out touring.
And weekends start to feel busy again.
Spring is one of the most active times in real estate here in Colorado.
