Crested Butte Real Estate Market Report – November 2014

December 8, 2014 By Chris Kopf

Crested Butte Real Estate Market Report – November 2014 – All Good.   Crested Butte Real Estate Snapshot 2014 Totals Look Similar to 2013 Results The Crested Butte Real Estate Market started off with a whimper, but is ending similar to 2013 as a result of a very strong Summer and Fall. We see that the 2014 YTD Volume of $141M is a slight increase (3%) over the 2013 total of $137M, and the number of total properties sold YTD in 2014 is 302 vs. 310 in 2013. While the length of the “off-season” shrunk a bit this Fall thanks to a number of Fall events, beautiful autumn colors, and continued visitors. We are in a holding pattern now until the beginning of the year – the ski resort is open and lifts are spinning – but primarily servicing local skiers until the Holidays.  There is typically light activity through Christmas – and things start to pick-up around New Years eve. Crested Butte Real Estate Volume November 2014Comparing the monthly totals from 2014 to 2013 we see that while we have arrived at about the same destination, the strong Fall results in 2014 made up for the slower start at the beginning of the Year. Looking at the properties currently Under Contract (33 properties representing $9.9M) the month of December results will likely be around $6M – and the overall 2014 totals will barely exceed the annual totals from 2013. Interesting Stat – The Inventory of the number of Properties for Sale has been dropping over the past few years – looking at the snapshot from November of the previous years we we see: 2012 = 743, 2013 = 648, 2014 = 614  Crested Butte Luxury Real Estate Market – Properties Sold for $1 Million +  Year to Date There have been 27 properties sold for over $1M YTD – 20of them have been Single Family Homes, 2 ski-in/out condos (West Wall and Silver Ridge) and 5 riverfront home sites at Wilder on the Taylor.  The most expensive single family home sold in the past 16 months has been the $3.9M luxury home sold in Trappers Crossing at CB (5 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, fully furnished).   The Luxury volume of $47.2M sold YTD represents 33% of the total volume, and the the 20 Luxury Single Family Homes Sold total of $36.4M comes short of the 27 sales and $46.3M for the same period in 2013. The average sold price for the high-end homes sold is $1.82M; median price $1.48M, and Average Price per sq. ft. was $476. Luxury Properties For Sale in the Crested Butte Area  Crested Butte Luxury Real EstateThere are a total of 106 properties Listed for over $1M for a total Volume of $217M, including 68Single Family Homes for sale with Asking Prices over $1M representing $134M in total volume. In historic downtown Crested Butte there are 12 luxury homes for sale with prices ranging from $1.1M to $2.7M and median Asking Price of $1.25M, and Average Price per Sq. Ft. of $570.  There are 21 Single Family Homes for sale on Mt. Crested Butte – and a handful representing ski-in/ski-out including 2 in the Prospect Subdivision.  There are 2 high-end luxury condos and town homes for sale in Mt. Crested Butte – oneat the ski-in/out West Wall (Penthouse unit A-403 Listed for $2.095M), and two across the street at The Villas, there is also 1 luxury condo for sale in downtown Crested Butte at the corner of Gothic & 7th for sale for over $1.1M. Crested Butte Condo PricesMedian and Average Prices for Condos & Townhomes shows an increase in price points — given the YTD data we see Median Condo Sales Price at $192,000 and Average at $233,000. Avg. Price per sq. ft. for Condos & Town homes are up 15% year over year from $214 in 2013 to $247 year to date 2014. Median and Average Prices for Single Family Homes  We see a greater price increase in the Single Family (SF) homes category – Comparing Year to Date (YTD) results from 2014 to prior years we see that the Median Price for Single Family homes has risen from $530,000 to $667,500 and Average SF Home price has risen from $780,000 to $854,000. Given the mix of homes sold this may be a result of the sample set.   Avg. Price per sq. ft. for SF Homes are up 12% from $295 (2013) to $330 year to date. Crested Butt Single Family Home Prices What Real Estate is Selling in the Crested Butte area? Condos and Townhomes represents the most transactions (155) and 51% of all transaction, with Single Family homes making up the second largest count (93). Land /Lots Sold (54) represent 18% of the count but only 12% of the total dollar volume sold YTD.  There have been 20 single family homes sold for over $1M, and this represents 26% of the overall Volume, but only 7% of the total number of transactions.

Winter Ski Season is Here – CBMR & Many Businesses are Bullish It is a common theme every year at this time that bookings are up and forecasts look good, and this year is no different.  We have great snow and lots of events throughout the Crested Butte Ski Season – it is a great time to be in CB!  The only real metric for measuring the Winter Economy are the final Sales Tax Revenue results month to month and final results for the season in May. The more visitors to our valley in the Winter result in Real Estate activity – and the more Showings, Offers, Contracts, results in more Sold properties 30-90 days later.

Chris is outstanding! We recently bought a second home in Crested Butte and Chris did a great job throughout the whole process. He has a thorough understanding of the market and the benefits and drawbacks of various locations. He was very patient with us as our preferences evolved throughout the search. He gave us valuable information on which to negotiate the purchase. He had great follow-up during the inspection/closing process (when we were not in town) and made sure all of the commitments made by the seller were properly completed.
