Bottom Line

The Jan 2017 Aspen real estate market* is up 33% in unit sales and 117% in dollar volume over Jan 2016. But in Jan ‘16, the stock market was plummeting and the local real estate market went deep south. The year-to-year comparison is from a low base last year.Current sales are approximately 50% better than Jan 2016 and 50% less than a sizzling Jan 2015. Performance-wise we’re in the middle of the past two years .

Post Nov.‘16 election sales finally started picking up relative to the dismal 1st Half of 2016 that was caused by paralyzing political uncertainty. Sales continue to be on the rise now.

Of particular note, in Jan 2017 the number of under contracts (UC’s)/Pendings exceeded Jan 2016 by 142%, (29) now versus (12) then. UC’s – properties that are have gone under contract but not yet (and may not ) closed – are viewed as an indicator of future activity.

*In Jan 2017, Aspen unit and dollar sales represent 67% of total Aspen and SMV combined sales.Typically, they are closer to 70-80% of the total combined sales.
