Explore The Top 14 Ski Resorts In The West

Feeling Festive

It’s that time of year where holiday parties, sparkles and ugly sweaters are having their heyday! We celebrated the LIV Sotheby’s International Realty Resort holiday party at the new Hythe hotel in Vail. It’s always a pleasure to see my colleagues from the other resort towns and celebrate everything that we’ve accomplished this past year. We couldn’t do it without you, so thank you!

I recently closed on a wonderful 4-bedroom duplex on the Eagle River overlooking the 14th fairway in Arrowhead for $4,045,000. I also have some exciting things on the horizon, so stay tuned! Don’t forget, whether selling or buying, I have my finger on the pulse of the market and continuously stay on top of properties that are coming to market or newly listed.
If you’re looking in a specific neighborhood or for a certain property, let me be your eyes and ears on the ground. Staying proactive is still an advantage in this current climate.

See you soon!

The Little Blue Book – Peak to Peak

A curated guide of premier North American ski resorts and mountain real estate communities to help you find your ultimate winter getaway.

This digital magazine is a collaboration of more than 30 fellow Sotheby’s International Realty colleagues from across the country. The winter issue is focused on not only the four ski mountains within the Vail Valley, but also other premier ski resorts throughout Colorado and beyond.

And for you snowbirds…I included the premier private golf clubs throughout Colorado and across the country in the second half of the magazine so that you can escape the winter blues.

Click the image above, send it to your friends and if you find yourself interested in one of the private clubs or the real estate communities nearby, reach out to one of my trusted colleagues for that area!

In Real Estate News…

Between November 15th and December 15th, we saw a smaller reduction in the decrease of sales volume month-to-month. The past 30 days saw a 13.8% decrease in sales volume YOY. Over the last 30 days, we’ve seen decreases in the number of sales, the number of new contracts written and the number of new inventory coming to market, although the gap is closing. I continue to believe that this is simply due to the limited amount of inventory and some aggressively priced properties. For reference, sales volume during this period in 2021 is up 61.1% over the same period in 2019 (pre-COVID).
This does not indicate that the market is coming to a halt – quite the opposite in fact. The number of new contracts is still outpacing the number of new listings coming to the market, showing that demand remains quite high.
If you are serious about jumping into this market, it is still crucial that you are properly prepared. That means, narrowing down your ideal location, fine-tuning your needs vs. wants list, and getting pre-qualified from your lender if you are utilizing a loan. Now is the time to take advantage of my connections in the brokerage community and knowledge of listings coming to market.
