We’re Baaaack!! Breckenridge is booming!

Breckenridge real estate demand is highOn a personal note, this is the biggest year we have had since 2006. The real estate inventory is low and the properties are being scooped up as fast as they are hitting the market. My guess? Perhaps there was a pent up demand? This is also in keeping with our history with Denver’s market, as you have heard me say in the past. We are usually about a year or two behind their activity. People will secure their primary residence first and then their Breckenridge vacation home.

Denver’s market is going crazy with 8 or 9 offers on a single property, bidding wars and low inventory. Sellers here in Breckenridge are starting to realize that the market is becoming more balanced, and they are seeing their properties get a lot of showings. They are starting to raise their prices this spring. This is only April!! Typically we would not see this kind of activity until the summer.

This is an exciting time for our town. If you are considering purchasing a second home or investment property in Breckenridge at least you know what you are getting in to.

Pending Resort Sales Up, Up, Up, Up!

Pending Residential sales are up countywide a whopping +38%! What a huge ending to the first quarter and a great setup for potential improvement in the second quarter of 2015. Sales for the first quarter are up +7%. Pending sales are up BIG and sales are up a bit all while the current inventory of residential properties for Summit County is down -21%.

Check out the sales by price range to the right and notice the driving improvement can be found in the $500,000 to $1,000,000 sold price range with the second best improvement occurring in the over $1,000,000 sales. The improvement isn’t across the board as is evident when one breaks the sales down by each side of the county; such as the North & South Side Sales to the right.
