Fun Fact Friday 🎓 7/17/2026

Hey Friends!

I walked into Walmart this morning and saw the “back to school” section in place of all the amazing 4th of July stuff.  It was a terrible experience.  I refuse to think about the Fall.  Onward summer!! Anyhow, I have 3 fun facts for you today.  

Enjoy!

Fun Fact 1: 
Colorado Springs continues in its appreciation slump and seems to be on trend to have a 5 year record of performing below the 5.1% annual average.  Hoping Q2 numbers bring some relief soon.

Fun Fact 2: 
The Colorado Springs Rental Market is under performing last year by about $45 a month.  The competition is growing as sellers are not excepting lower prices for their homes and opting to rent them instead.

Fun Fact 3: 
The amount of older borrowers with federal student debt is growing.  This is not good. All debt is dumb, but letting these loans last this long is a horrible plan for anyone. It will significantly reduce your chances have having true wealth.
