According to reports, the development suspension is designed to limit, and essentially stop, new additions to historic structures in Breckenridge while community leaders and officials update regulations and design standards for buildings with individual historic designations.

There’s nothing like a nice relaxing soak in the hot tub after a long (but fun) day out on the slopes.

It’s THAT time of year again—and no, we’re not talking about spring break and fun-filled vacations. Instead, we’re referring to that exciting time on the calendar known by many as tax season!

Various deductions still remain, of course, but some slight modifications have been made when it comes to buying and owning a home. And with this in mind, we thought now is as good of a time as any to outline 3 tax deductions homeowners shouldn’t overlook in 2019. 

Mortgage Interest Deduction 

For mortgages approved after December 2017, the

Focus on the First Impression and Curb Appeal. 

As they say, you only get one chance to make a good first impression. Make sure that the exterior of the property is clean and that the landscaping is trimmed and neat.
