Denver is expensive because it’s the place to be. Plenty of brand new homes in Denver but they’re 2 million. Traffic is horrible commuting into Denver.
I've been in Denver for the last couple of years, but only because I have free rent as a house sitter. I'd never live here otherwise. It was a good place to live 20 or 30 years ago. Now it has all the problems of big cities with few of the advantages. It does have beautiful scenery, but that's mostly in the background when you're stuck in all the sprawl. It's now expensive, high crime, lots of homelessness, and too spread out to get anywhere easily.
Got out of the Army, moved to Denver, and immediately knew it was not for us! They are charging Los Angeles prices without being close to the beach. Yes, there are mountains, but there are no beaches. From Los Angeles you can drive ot the mountains in just a few hours so you get the best of both worlds. There is absolutely no reason to charge those prices for Denver. It has gotten out of control for what you get. We ended up moving to Colorado Springs and have been very happy here. We don't even go to Denver anymore as there's no reason to.
Thanks for this vid - pretty informative! Can you please comment on the average rent prices for the areas outside of Denver (Castle Rock, Superior, others) I am looking more on the renting side for a year or two before deciding to purchase an actual home. Thank you!
Absolutely! The average rent in the surrounding areas will vary, but for the most part I would say a 1-2 bedroom apartment will be around $1500-$2000. For a single family home, those will be in the $2500 - $3500 depending on the size of the home.
First off yards in Colorado suck you won’t get a yard compared to places like Chicago or New York subs. Cost of living here is out of this world 600k or more for an ok home in a good area. I love the nature but man the real estate alone make me wanna move away
We almost got sucked into paying $550k for a 3 bedroom 2 bath house there. We decided it wasn't for us and paid $100k less for a 4 bedroom 3 bath house with a real backyard. Denver is just not it right now unless you're okay with paying high prices just to say you live in a major city.
Moved back 2 years ago😵 was in Oregon for 6 years and I wanna go back. The metro is so ugly ! PNW is so awesome. I'm planning my escape! The metro is brown and concrete. OR is green lush and a rain forest
Denver is going down in many ways. Some parts of the city look like an undeveloped country, people are hanging out at the intersections begging for money and I am not in the mood for political discussions here. It is still a nice city for many and boring and lack of culture for others. Almost everyone here is a transplant from other states, including me. I live in Congress Park, it is a beautiful area I like with access to great parks-City Park, Chessman Park and close to everything. Having lived in 4 other states, I know I can find nature and many more amenities in other cities. I enjoy the mountains but am definitely a coastal person, and for that reason, I am out!

Prideful isnt a word, homie. The word you're looking for is proud.

Who the hell wants to pay $2500.00 for a one bedroom apartment. Tge homelessness is out of control.
House my son rented near wash park for 1100 11 years ago was sold for 335 k in 2013 . Now listed for 810 k.. same curtains we put in ..

false. WAY higher and overpriced for what it is. @@livingindenverpropertybros
The best I could find for a safe, decent apartment was $2300. Decided to buy instead.
700k in Washington Park was impossible 15 years ago let alone today
Important to remember, there are many historic homes that weren’t built with cars in mind. Meaning no garage and tight streets.

Yep too expensive & too crowded, too many homeless, then the cold winters too 😁
Sucks people got deals on all these houses in Denver, now they stuck in a city that is quickly going down hill.

Gooooooooooooooood! Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh, don't move to Denver!
It’s all expensive- urban, suburban. Doesn’t matter

It is brown and concrete! I’ve been in Denver for 3 ish years and eeek it’s awful. What Oregon area are you in?

People moving to Denver is why it’s dog shit now
Denver sucks completely stay away.
Superior is absolutely beautiful with the open space and the view of the great Flat Irons , I been living here for 26 years and love it.
STAY OUT OF LODO YUPPYVILLE...WAY overpriced....take the Western Suburbs
People should be moving to Denver. You get more amenities and better value for your home, as a result. More advertising should be done for this city.
Where’s will
He will not
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN he will not be in the video
