Passion vs The Analytical Process

Steamboat Springs, CO…Passion vs the analytical process:

The numbers from the Case-Shiller index for the market value of U.S. homes in 20 major cities were released this morning for October and the index was flat.  The popular home-price index has steadily increased in the latter half of 2009.

How that applies to the Steamboat Springs market and surrounding areas is up for interpretation.  Currently, there are 2053 active listings in the Steamboat Springs Board of Realtors Multiple Listing Service.  Of those listings, 1217 are residential with 443 single family homes priced between $94,900 and $ 20 million.  There are 620 condos or townhomes listed for $109,900 on the bottom, up to $6.2 million.  Vacant land shows 728 listings priced between $7500 and $16.7million.

The most important information in the never ending stream of data is the availability of WHAT YOU WANT, whether it is land on which you chose to build your dream home, a ski area condo, a home ready for you to move into, or luxury real estate in Steamboat.  They are all available to you at your chosen price point in the Steamboat Springs area.

Use this rare opportunity to your advantage, chase your dream, change your lifestyle.  Come see why we locals love it here.  We are a real town that happens to have a great ski area and year round recreational venues.
