The Three “L’s” of Real Estate

By

May started out with the end of the ski season and the official kick-off into Spring as well as a wonderful (albeit blustery) Mother’s Day. Through the grace of God, I am blessed and grateful for the gift I was given everyday as Jade’s mom. Being that she is on the autistic spectrum, she is the essence of purity, innocence, non-judgment, and light – not only to me, but all of those around her. Not to mention how passionate she is about volunteering throughout the community 🙂

I’m thrilled to be bringing on two new listings in golf course communities – one in Singletree and the other in Arrowhead. Check them out below and stay tuned for some live open houses on social media! There is a collective anticipation in the real estatecommunity as we move towards the summer selling season and eagerly await new inventory to hit the market. Correctly positioned homes will continue to move at a fast pace, so I will continue to beat the drum of preparation and advocacy for my clients this summer.

Remember, that whether you are a buyer or seller, there is always a way to reach your goal and I would welcome being the one to help you get there.

The Three “L’s” of Real Estate:
Lifestyle. Location. Livability.

36 St. Andrews Place
Arrowhead


4 Bedrooms | 5 Bathrooms | 5,697 SF | 0.54 Acres | $5,795,000

36 St. Andrews Place is an unexpected single-family home with the primary suite, office, and two guest suites all located on the spacious main level. Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac and set on over half an acre, the striking entry welcomes you to a voluminous great room, large kitchen and several patios with expansive views overlooking green space and the 11th Par 3 Fairway of Country Club of the Rockies golf course.

800 June Creek Road
Singletree

5 Bedrooms | 5.5 Bathrooms | 4,312 Sq. Ft. | $3,325,000
800 June Creek Road is the perfect blend of mountain contemporary design with a warm and welcoming feel! This custom 5 bed, 5½ bath home was built in 2012/13 and spans 4,312 sq. ft. through three levels with incredible mountain views. It was thoughtfully designed and placed in a way to capture privacy and picture framed views. The great room overlooks the 1st & 2nd holes and pond of the Sonnenalp Golf Club, with unobstructed views of the Arrowhead ski area and Finnegan Peak.


National vs. Local Trends

In a recent sales meeting, we discussed some statistics from the National Association of Realtors legislative meetings that went over some national economic issues and trends by Lawrence Yun. According to the national statistics, home prices across the country are up 55%.



So we decided to look at single family and duplex sold prices in our local neighborhoods and in many cases, average sold prices are up anywhere from 29% (Wildridge) to 127% (Arrowhead). The neighborhood of Singletree (or the “Sun Belt” of the Vail Valley) has seen an increase of 96.9% since 2020, and EagleVail (a local favorite) has seen an increase of 82.2% since 2020. It will be interesting to see what the second half of this year will bring!

In Real Estate News…

We are at the front door of the summer selling season and we’re starting to see the typical uptick in inventory as people capture the magical season of a Rocky Mountain summer. For now, the number of new listings is still slightly outpacing the number of new contracts, which a good sign for prepped buyers who are ready to purchase!


May Is Mental Health Awareness Month
