Colorado has three geological divisions to real estate that all have very different characteristics:
1. the arid eastern plains,
2. the “Western Slope” and
3. “Front Range” along the foothill of the mountains which includes about 90% of the state’s population, and the mountain towns.
Prices and types of properties vary greatly between the three.

- The number of units sold in Glenwood Springs was up almost 28%, sales in the city of Pueblo were down over 3%.
- Areas like Boulder have negative cash flow on nearly every property, but eastern plain counties have positive cash flow on nearly every property even with 100% financing
