SQS Kari Lundberg-Buying a Home in a Hot Market
As we move into Spring, I thought it would be great to speak with my friend (and realtor) Kari Lundberg from Porchlight Real Estate Group. We discussed the ins and outs of purchasing a home in a “hot market.” We walk through what to expect, what to prepare for, and how to go about getting your first (or second) home in Denver.

Want to Start a Blog?
I love blogging! It has been an incredible experience, transformed my life, and connected me with a ton of amazing people. Blogging is a pretty cheap activity and I recommend hosting your blog with Siteground. Many bloggers have begun leaving HostGator and BlueHost and moving to Siteground. Myself included! Read why I’m leaving HostGator and BlueHost (I have 2 blogs one on each hosting platform) and moving to Siteground. If you’re a new blogger Siteground will cost around $3.95 a month (depending on the size of your audience). They have great customer service and tutorials on how to host your new WordPress blog on Siteground.
