Have you checked out our May newsletter yet?  The focus for this month was looking at the residential market in Steamboat Springs, and how it has fared over the past five years.  I must say that I was very surprised in the findings.  Keeping in mind the research was done on what has sold and not what is listed, the number of sales has dropped considerably, but the price at which homes, town homes and condominiums in Steamboat Springs have been purchased for has actually maintained itself quite well in these tough economic times.  To see the report and all of the great information, please check out the “Monthly Newsletters” section of the “Buyer’s Toolbox” link above.

Regarding the residential market in Steamboat Springs, if you are looking for a great lot to build a single family home, consider this “Best Buy”:

Great lot ready to build with a wonderful location in Wildhorse Meadows.  Walking distance amenities include the gondola, tennis center, athletic fields, Strings in the Mountains Center, and more!  The lot borders open space and offers Ski Area, Emerald and Flat Top Mtn. views.  In the future, Wildhorse owners will enjoy use of The Ranch House, Wildhorse Athletic Club Steamboat Country Store and trail system.  All utilities are to the lot line.  In a neighborhood that already has a spec home setting the standard at $3.295m, this price, of $495,000, is a great value (lot values typically represent 25% to 35% of total value).

If this property sounds like something you are interested in, give us a call / email today.  We’d be happy to provide you with pictures, maps, etc and answer any questions you may have.
