Buyer Tip: Homes in Fountain Valley sell in about 3 months. Fountain Valley is the closest area to Fort Carson, which makes homes (historically) sell quicker. If you are looking for an investment property, buying a single family home in Fountain (that you could rent out to soldiers) may be a good idea.

Seller Tip: Sell your home in the early Summer when most of the troops are moving in and make sure that your Realtor® markets/advertises your home on Military.com. Or, if you owe more than you could sell your Fountain home for, consider renting it out. The Fountain rental market has always been good.
