Our friends at Land Title Guarantee Company in Summit County, Colorado have provided us this information reflecting our real estate market through July of 2024:

  • Market Analysis by Area for July 2024: There were a total of 158 transactions and $200,794,065 in monetary volume. The average transaction price for all 18 reported areas, plus deed restricted transactions, was $1,346,764. The average residential price was $1,424,021 and the average residential PPSF was $834.
  • Market Analysis by Area YTD 2024 (7 months):There were a total of 836 transactions and $1,136,601,374 in monetary volume. The average transaction price for all 18 areas, plus deed restricted transactions, was $1,424,634, the average transaction price was $1,455,194 and the average residential PPSF was $845. 

Of particular interest is the number of active listings we are currently seeing.  As you can see by the graph below, we are back to the number of active listings we saw in 2019. 

As professionals in the real estate industry who enjoy following trends, we find it interesting that that the number of active listings seems to peak in the 3rd quarter of general election years.  It seems that some buyers tend to wait on the sidelines right before a general election to see how things play out.  We will be paying special attention to the movement of properties once the election takes place.
