Sold Listings

The chart above shows the number of sold residential listings in Breckenridge by month.

Note that the peak number of sales typically occurs in October. You can verify this by hovering your mouse over the data points. A typical seasonal dynamic is:

  • Buyers start looking in spring / early summer, hoping to get a low price and a good deal
  • Sellers list in spring / early summer, listing with a high price and hoping to get top dollar
  • As the summer progresses into early fall, both buyers and sellers become more motivated and realistic, and meet somewhere in the middle. Transactions go under contract in August and September, and close in October, in time for the upcoming ski season!

Key point: these are live charts – check back a few days after the first of each month, and the data updates each month
