Signs of Hope in Denver Metro Real Estate Market

I'm beginning to experience multiple offers on well priced, updated and staged homes/condos.  Is it possible that we are starting to reach the bottom of the market and turning the corner?

"Metro Denver's resale housing market appeared to start returning to normalcy in June, according to sales data Tuesday from Metrolist Inc.

Single-family home sales in June, for example, were equally split between the lower price ranges that appeal to first-time homebuyers and pricier houses that attract homebuyers moving up to larger and/or more expensive homes."  http://tinyurl.com/lvr972

Can you pass US Citizenship Test?

 Can you do better on a US Citizenship test than 3.5% of Arizona High School students?

PHOENIX – Just days before Arizonans join with the rest of the country in celebrating Independence Day, a new study shows most of the state’s high school students wouldn’t pass the test to become American citizens. The Goldwater Institute asked 1,140 high school students 10 random questions from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services exam. In order to become US citizens, immigrants must answer six of the 10 questions correctly. According to the Freedom from Responsibility: A Survey of Civic Knowledge Among Arizona High School Students, only 3.5 percent of the students in the study got six or more correct."
