Explore Summit County and Breckenridge, Colorado !
Location, location, location!
Summit County, where the town of Breckenridge resides, is full of outdoor opportunities, from hiking and biking the many trails in the area, to exploring old mining settlements and ghost towns, to all kinds of snow and winter sports.
Four ski areas—Arapahoe Basin, Breckenridge, Copper, and Keystone—provide nearly 10,000 acres of skiing. Nordic Centers are sprinkled throughout the county for those who prefer to ski without a lift, as are hundreds of miles of trails. In spring, it's possible to experience the winter playground at 11,000 feet, and then drive 30 minutes to hiking and other warmer weather pursuits in the lower elevations.
A Small Town With A Big Atmosphere
Breckenridge, Frisco, Dillon, and the other little towns in Summit County definitely retain their small town atmosphere. As a resident, it's difficult to go to the grocery store, post office, or theater without running into someone you know. Service is still what you expect in a small town, with folks doing that extra bit to help you out. In addition to being able to find everything you need on a daily basis, you'll also find a very cosmopolitan atmosphere, the result of being a resort area. Art galleries abound and museums and mine tours explain the area's rich history. Coffee shops and restaurants are top quality. And Denver, with all the amenities of a large city, is only an hour and a half away, at least when the roads are clear!

About Appraisals >Professional Appraisals
Before your mortgage application is approved, the lender will order a professional appraisal of the home to make sure that the agreed-upon selling price is justifiable based on the current market value of the property. The cost of the appraisal will be based on the complexity of the appraisal report and the time required to complete it.
A professional appraiser will choose the appraisal technique that is applicable to the particular property to arrive at an unbiased opinion of value. One approach is to look at comparable homes in the area that have sold within the last six months. If there are a number of similar properties that have sold recently, the appraiser's job is easy. It is more complicated to arrive at the appraised value if your home is located in a rural area or a diverse neighborhood.
The appraised value will usually be very close to the sale price. If the appraisal comes in lower, the real estate agent may be able to provide the appraisers with additional information on recent sales which will result in increased value.
