How to access Netflix secret menus – Complete list of hidden codes

With so much of 2020 spent in lockdown, many of us have spent far more time than usual scrolling through Netflix for things to watch. You might think you’ve exhausted everything there is to watch on Netflix. The chances are, though, that there are probably a lot of films and TV shows you’ve never come across while searching through the streaming service’s extensive library. Unless you spend hours scrolling through, the titles that are highlighted are based on the previous things you’ve watched or added to your list.

Netflix genre codes or commonly referred to as “se...

But they all have one thing in common: Once you’re in on the secret, you won’t want to share it with too many others.

Denver Real Estate Market Pulse – October 2020

Home & Design

Another month rolls in with a familiar story line for Denver Real Estate. Low inventory and high buyer demand are driving record breaking numbers. The current active listings represent the lowest number we have seen in any September, by nearly 2,000 units. For detached single family homes, that number is a mere 3,000 homes, down 8 percent from August and 50 percent year-over-year. Generally, the fall brings a lull in buyer activity and active listings. However, with people spending more time at home, a high percentage of kids virtual learning, and the influx of people moving to Denver, it appears that will not be the case this year. Low Real Estate Inventory Across the City of Denver There are several reasons for the low inventory. Sellers are equity rich, with the ability to ride...
