Vail’s getting ready for the season, we’re almost there!

I’ve had mixed feelings about a blog post about this touchy subject.  I don’t want to jinx it.  But I think it is safe to let the world know that homes in Vail are selling.  The existing “for sale” inventory has been dramatically reduced.  At one point this summer we had almost 500 homes/condos for sale within the Town of Vail.  Now we are down to 380.  There are still some amazing homes for sale, but they won’t be there for long. There are bargains at every price point.  And the best news is that there are now some valid comps to use.  So the integrity is returning to the market. 

If you have been thinking about a ski home in Vail, now is the time to make the move.  The inventory is shrinking and the Mountain is opening next week.  Please give me a call if you want any additional details.  Mark:  970-331-5821

Even though it is an amazingly warm and beautiful day today, just last week we were in the middle of winter.  Here is proof that the ski season is on its way.

Big Horn Trail in East Vail.

Looks awfully lonely above Gore Creek. Teva Mountain Games all weekend here in Vail.

May in Vail

First let me say that I’m not going to upload a picture, because any picture that I take would feature tons of SNOW.  I don’t want to feature snow right now, it is May 1st tomorrow.  The Mountain is closed and it is still dumping here.  I must admit I’m ready for Summer. 

So with that being said, here is the surprise that the Title refers to.  There are currently 35 properties for sale in Vail, Colorado under $400,000.  That number includes 1 bedroom condos up to 3 bedroom condos and town homes.  These are not all fixer uppers.  Some of these are turn-key and ready for you to move into.  Some are bank owned, but the vast majority of them are just on the market and have motivated sellers. 

It is off season here, and there aren’t too many buyers walking around town.  Now is the time to surprise some of these sellers with offers.  Hit them while they are feeling most vulnerable.  NOW IS THE TIME to take advantage of the great opportunities here in Vail.  Give me a call for more information: 970-331-5821.

Another beautiful Spring day here in Vail.  I’m holding a 1BD Mountain Haus condo open today.  Recently dropped its price to $735,000.  Stop by the Ascent Sotheby’s International Office or give me a call.  970-331-5821.

I’m holding two condos open in Vail Village.  I have a 1bd and a 3bd, both located in the Mountain Haus in Vail Village.  Stop by our office near the Covered Bridge or give me a call 970-331-5821.
