 Richard Wobbekind, one of my favorite economists, who is with the Colorado Leeds School of business, is predicting that Colorado will have slow steady growth in 2012.  We are not going to see robust growth, but we are going to see growth.  The construction industry which has seen a decline in employment over the last four years is poised to add 2,900 jobs next year.

Wobbekind does caution in the article in the Daily Camera, that if something drastic happens in Europe that throws our stock market into a tail spin all bets are off and we could have rough roads ahead. 

The current numbers and job growth are running parallel to what occurred during the 2001 downturn according to Wobbekind.  If we continue to follow the same growth path we should see

Boulder had 619 sales over the past year, compared to 642 for the same period a year ago.  Our total sales volume was down 3.6% when we look at year-over-year numbers.  The average sale price actually increased 1.5%.  Both of these numbers may be influenced by the Home Buyer Tax Credit.

Broomfield single family homes fared a bit better than Boulder with an increase of home sales from 345 to 354 for an increase of 2.6%.  Broomfield single family homes average sales price also increased by 1.8%.  Broomfield has done well over the last couple years.  Broomfield's city planners seem to have

While the Fair Housing Act and HUD's Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity prohibits discrimination in residential real estate transactions on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin, there’s no question that it happens.
