REAL ESTATE NEWS | MANCOS
A More Balanced Market
November is a time of transition in many ways. Although we have had a warmer and drier fall, we know the snow is coming and with that, transitions from bikes, golf, and hiking to skis, snowboards, and snowshoes. It is also a transition time in our real estate market as we welcome hunters to the area and activity picks up during the holidays while our local market takes a breather before the spring market shows more activity.
Compared to a year ago, available homes for sale are up approximately 16% - the highest at this time of year in 5 years! This is good news for home buyers as more options are available and represents a more balanced market than in years past. Current pending sales are about the same as last year while closings are up 23% and dollar volume is up 13%.
Whether you will be in the area for the holidays and the start of our winter season or plan to come later, wishing you a fun and memorable holiday season! If you have any questions about the market or specific area of interest, please reach out anytime! I’d love to connect with you!
Statistics are provided by the Colorado Real Estate Network and calculated by area. Call me for information on statistics that are specific to your neighborhood. I also have monthly and quarterly market trend reports that I can schedule you to receive so please let me know if you have an interest in receiving this type of information monthly.
