Good News for Denver-Area Housing Market 

Aan article from the Rocky Mountain News, reports that according to the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices, the Denver area housing market showed the most appreciation of 20 metropolitan areas tracked from May to June.  The Denver area showed a 1.5% gain in that period.  The report showed the average percentage change in that one-month period was a loss of 0.5% for all 20 cities, and a loss of 0.6% for 10 of them.  Denver homes showed a 4.7% decline from June 2007 to June 2008, the third best of the 20 cities.  David M. Blitzer, chairman of the Index Committee at Standard & Poor's said, "While there is no national turnaround in residential real estate prices, it is possible that we are seeing some regions struggling to come back, which has resulted in some moderation in price declines at the national level."   Julie Montgomery, a broker associate with RE/MAX Masters Inc. of Greenwood Village, said the key to selling a home in Denver is to make sure it is in perfect condition and shows well.

Martha Stewart Drives Home Sales 

An article from The Denver Post, reports that a few years ago, Martha Stewart teamed up with KB Home to design a line of homes modeled after her own residences.  Last year, they brought the concept to Stapleton.  According to MetroStudies, year-to-date sales at KB Home Martha Stewart are 38% higher than the 11 other builders in the Stapleton master plan.  Since launching KB Home Stapleton: Homes Created With Martha Stewart, KB has sold 43 homes and will deliver 35 of them this year.  Mike Rinner, a housing analyst at the Genesis Group in Arapahoe County said, "It's a unique product she lends her name to.  If they built the same houses without the Martha Stewart touch and had standard finishes and decor without the additional stuff, it would not be as nice a home.  It would not have the same cachet and appeal."

Downtown Businesses Hope to Benefit from DNC
 
The Democratic National Convention (DNC) is expected to bring $160 million into the Denver area. Local businesses are hoping they get some of that profit.  Jeff Miceli says he plans to keep his restaurant MICI open an hour longer every night, hoping to pick up extra diners when the DNC wraps up for the day. He's also bringing in extra staff.
"We don't have anything contracted out as far as parties or anything but we think it's going to be huge. We think it will be our best week ever just with the volume of people that will be down town," Miceli said.  Sharon Linhart with the Downtown Denver Partnership echoes the sentiment. She says they are trying to keep people downtown, and let visitors know downtown Denver is open for business.  "Hopefully these guests and visitors to Denver will spend a lot of money and that would be great. The restaurants and nightspots are really going to benefit and thrive at this time," said Linhart.
