Buying

Think just because we are buried in snow that we aren't selling homes?

The Rockies have become a year round playground and new listings are coming on every day.

Reasons to look for your Rocky Mountain Dream Home today;

Prices will continue to rise. CoreLogic’s latest Home Price Index reports that home prices have appreciated by 6.3% over the last 12 months. The same report predicts that prices will continue to increase at a rate of 5.2% over the next year. The bottom in home prices has come and gone. Home values will continue to appreciate for years. Waiting no longer makes sense.

Mortgage Rates are projected to go up. The latest employment report showed hourly earnings were up 2.9% over last year, the highest since 2009. This coupled with manufacturers expecting increasing costs indicates inflation is coming. This worry will be putting upward pressure on mortgage rates, we are up almost half a percent and some predict another .5% by summer.

Our Inventory is at historic lows. With less than 400 active listings in Summit County odds are your dream will be on and off the market before you know it. You need to be looking to jump as soon as the opportunity arrives.

Is It Time to Move on with Your Life? If you have made the decision that buying a mountain home is the right thing then now could not be a better time. Don't worry as these days it is often 60 days to close so moving in will occur as the weather warms. It's gonna be a great summer in the high country be ready to have fun when it arrives.
