Brand new, pre-construction opportunity in the Fairways section of Aspen Glen, the midvalley's only gated and private community. Located adjacent to the second green with sunny southern exposure, this modern home is set for completion by the end of 2021 and features a double volume living area, floor to ceiling glass, dramatic floating staircase, an open concept chef's kitchen, and a high-end appliance package. Don't miss this Aspen quality home, within minutes of downtown Carbondale, and every amenity available in this prestigious and coveted community.
These days I tell my clients the name of the game is finding homes for sale before they hit market. It works for the seller because they don’t have to formally list or prepare for open houses. Brokers like it as it keeps marketing costs and showings to a minimum. And buyers get to negotiate quietly and free of any competition.
But now, as buyers become more desperate, sellers are reluctant to engage in off-market deals and are opting to throw fresh meat into the piranha pool to create more competition and generate maximum returns.
Congrats to the Aspen Skiing Company for an incredible season under challenging circumstances! The slopes are closed now and locals are gearing up for summer. Be sure to make your arrangements early not only in terms of lodging and air but also for restaurants and activities as I expect full capacity crowds throughout the season. The market is as active as ever with high demand and fewer options, but be sure to scroll down to see two recent sales I’m very proud of! I helped two first-time homebuyers secure properties under $600,000. Both were subject to a loan and among the last of their kind at that price. I was also pleased to be a part of the highest commercial sale in the mid-valley in the last three years. No matter what your real estate need, I’d be excited to help. See what a difference experience, intelligence and creativity can make in a competitive market. Email, text or call to start your search!
Even with the downward trend of the Aspen Snowmass listing inventory, we continue to dominate our region in both the overall and luxury markets. In the first quarter of 2021 as well as for the past 20 years, we were able to assist more sellers and buyers with their real estate needs than any other brokerage firm in the Roaring Fork Valley. For the last three years, we have accomplished more than 2.5x the business of our #2 competitor and 2.9x more than our #3 competitor.
Friends and loyal clients:
Happy Easter, Passover and April Fools Day; the latter of which has become our eight-year-old son’s favorite holiday! This spring so many of us are experiencing a sense of relief and feel a compulsion to celebrate new life, reemergence and what looks to be a fresh start. We are all looking ahead with renewed hope and have been reminded how fortunate we are for “the essentials” of life itself, love, health and each other! Enjoy the season and as always, reach out if I can be of service. See a link to my latest article below for my current perspective.
Best regards,
Scott
Given the current dearth of inventory here and around the country, one might actually need a car or a camper and a campsite to live in this summer, as options for homes, condos, even raw land are at a fraction of what they were a few short years ago. And if you think last summer was busy, just wait as the freshly vaccinated, cooped up masses arrive and start fighting over what’s left.
Hello again from spectacular Aspen Snowmass where spring skiing is in full swing. As the days grow longer and warmer, thoughts of summer begin to creep in, but not before a few more turns! The change of seasons, and the anticipation of what’s ahead, is one of the many things that make our region so special and in such high demand. Interest remains strong but with fewer choices, properties are going under contract almost as soon as they hit the market. I expect this summer to be one of the busiest on record in terms of visitors as restrictions are lifted and more folks get their shots. And you can be sure the buyers will be out in force too! If you plan to be here this spring or summer, look me up. Don’t miss the opportunities that lay ahead!
If you're yearning for beauty, solitude, and access to everything Colorado, stop searching.
