I am now 54. To deny a real estate bubble is to ignore the obvious market fundamentals. Obviously, there are different factors in different markets, but as a longtime investor/Realtor/broker there is no logical argument against real estate prices declining 10 percent to 30 percent in the "hot markets." The South Florida condo market will be a blood bath. The median income cannot buy the median house in most markets; interest rates will continue creeping up; speculators have driven prices to insane levels and when the going gets rough they will walk from a lot of residential properties. Most "hot" areas are becoming alarmingly overbuilt with residential inventories rising; lenders have ticking time bombs in their ARMs, negative equity and interest-only mortgages. Do your homework. Be wary of those whose opinions are tainted by the fact that they or their company have a stake in this insane market continuing. Michael H. Mosieur Mosieur Business Brokers Re: ' America closes doors to architectural expression ' (Dec. 26) Dear Editor: This is one of the most insightful articles I've read in a long time. We might add, "And what are we doing to our children as we worship at the altar of the mundane?" Years ago I read that about 1,000 children were tested for creativity just prior to entering kindergarten. Eighty-five percent of the children tested "creative." Twelve years later the same group was tested, and only 35 percent of the students tested "creative." What happened to the children along the scholastic way, and does the country even care? Where's the outcry? Isn't the creativity of our generations one of our most precious resources? It's been said that we're only one generation away from losing our freedom. Could it be that with escalating offshore competition in view, and stultifying U.S. scholastic models utilized, that the above advisory could also apply to our economic freedom? A.

Entrance to Summit County from Denver is through the Eisenhower Tunnel, a mile and a half long tunnel through the Continental Divide some 11,500 feet above sea level. Read about this highest tunnel in the world. Hoosier Pass defines the southern edge of Summit county, about 10 miles south of Breckenridge. It, too, is a pass over the Continental Divide which is the watershed separating water flows to the Atlantic Ocean on the east side and the Pacific Ocean on the west side. Hoosier Pass, at 11,500 feet, forms the headwaters of the Blue River, which, when it flows out of Dillon Reservoir, is one of the most beautiful and pristine, Gold Medal trout fisheries in the country. Traveling along Interstate 70, the western edge of Summit County is Vail Pass, at about 10,600 feet. About 15 miles beyond Vail Pass is the city of Vail which hosts the most popular ski area in North America. Breckenridge is the county seat for Summit County, and home of one of the most popular ski areas in the country. There are three other ski areas -- Keystone, Copper Mountain and Arapahoe Basin in Summit County, and Vail Resort is about 25 miles west. Frisco , Dillon and Silverthorne are principal towns in Summit County and provide a variety of real estate opportunities which I would be happy to help you with.
