Looking at the performance metrics provided within LIV Sotheby’s International Realty’s monthly report, there are some indicators that buyers of real estate in Vail Valley may see some benefits if they act quickly. Currently, the year-to-date statistics show a 16% increase in average days on market, allowing buyers a bit more time to make real estate decisions. According to the most recent Land Title market analysis, real estate sales continue to improve through 2019 as June produced the best month of the year in both dollar volume and transactions.

Continued observation and feedback from Front Range clients and colleagues alike is confirming more people are moving into the Denver Metropolitan area. This equates to more Front Range people looking for second homes to enjoy the lifestyle which the Vail Valley has to offer. That in addition to increased remote working capability seems to be a driving force of continued activity here in the mountains.
