Recently purchased in Colorado (thoughts on market)
Just purchased a second home in Lakewood, CO and couldn't be happier because CO is awesome and want to live there full time one day, but it definitely feels like I bought at the top of the market and that CO will slow down in growth for a while as other nearby states legalize pot.
Wondering what other people's thoughts are on CO going forward? Honestly, though I'm probably biased here, but I think CO has a great future going for it. Will be the best state in the mountain time zone in terms of job opportunities etc. Read recently that Boulder has highest amount of software engineers per capita in the country. As our economy further automates and modernizes, CO will be a great place to find talent, and it's still much cheaper than east or west coasts. Do you guys agree or disagree with me?
