Happy New Year!

Here’s the year-end review for the real estate market in Breckenridge, Colorado.

It’s a strong buyer’s market. Prices are roughly flat since January 2009, and the number of sales has stabilized and is actually moving up.

There’s plenty to choose from, prices are rolled back to 2005-2006 levels, and sellers are motivated. If you’ve been wanting to invest in Summit County, CO, now is the time!
