This is with statefarm which is surprising.

I’m surprised you haven’t found anything in South Shore..

Colorado Springs does as well, but their limits make it all but impossible in practice.Arvada and Littleton surprise me as the Airbnb laws have tended toward more restrictive, so it's interesting to see a city take a different tact.

And obviously we will continue to follow up with the owners of the property we visited last night as well the la Conchita seller.Lessons Learned:Although it is way too early to celebrate any kind of success, I am a little pleased and surprised at the results we are starting to see.

I was surprised but I knew there was a catch.
