With earth day coming up and the real estate market bounding into its busy season, you may be considering how to combine the two and make your move eco friendly! All the cardboard boxes, bubble wrap, and toxic fumes can add up… but there are some easy ways to minimize your moving footprint.

1. Pack Your Bags

Instead of using disposable cardboard boxes, search your home for box-like receptacles and use those for your big move instead! Storage bins, duffle bags, rolling suitcases, large tupperware and keepsake boxes are just a few examples of the hidden gems just waiting to make their debut as moving boxes.

2. Hunt for Boxes

Are all of your containers and tubs already full and ready for moving day? Look outside your

Holiday cheer has been spreading like glitter around the Live Urban Office... a dusting of snow greeted us this morning and shoppers have been bustling around Highland Square. The only thing that could make a day like today better is an evening of holiday lights viewing. 

But, have you ever driven Denver's streets only to head home without setting eyes on any truly impressively decorated homes? 

Well, it turns out the Denver Post has an interactive map where you can find all of the most fantastic decorated homes across the Denver Metro Area - and if your house isn't already on the map, you can add it!

So, fill those travel mugs with hot chocolate and hit the road for some good old-fashioned holiday light viewing!

A house can be any basic unit of dwelling, whether it’s a mid-mod home in Sloan’s, a 1930’s brick duplex in the Highlands or an ultra-modern townhome in Jefferson Park-- or anything else in between.

From thrift stores to antique shops to architectural salvage yards, Denver is a great place to shop for

Every year, Pantone, the world-renowned authority on color, chooses the color of the year, a symbolic color selection of what Pantone sees taking place in our global culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude.

Of course, we love it at Live Urban Real Estate. Although we affectionately call it "Live Green," it's been the signature color of our real estate brokerage since 2006, and was originally
