We were quite surprised when we first saw this development underway. It’s turned out to be an astounding investment play, although our initial theory of it being constructed as a rental was incorrect. We suspect the developer wishes they kept it in their portfolio. 

Unit B is one of four townhomes in a building constructed in 2013. It features two bedrooms, three baths, and a reasonable ~1,300 SQFT.  Finishes have aged reasonably well, and the location is in close proximity to everything cool in Boulder. It’s a very trendy lock-and-leave style property in the perfect location for accessing all of Boulder’s fun restaurants, bars, and shops. 

Deal Notes: The property was listed in mid November at $1,275,000. The seller cut the price a few weeks later by $25K. Right around Christmas, a buyer locked it down, and the deal closed during the first week of January at 1.2M, with no disclosed concessions. 

Due Diligence: Traffic noise from Canyon Blvd. Near constant traffic noise.
