Boulder Real Estate Market Summary

You might wonder what’s going on in the Boulder real estate market these days with all the talk about the national drop in prices. Most of us that live in the area know that prices aren’t dropping in Boulder. Actually, one of the topics of conversation lately is how common it is anymore to find homes over the $1,000,000 price.

I researched the data again Saturday and you might be surprised to learn that of the 441 homes for sale this past weekend in Boulder, over 100 of them exceed the $1,000,000 price tag. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t homes around $350k or so but… Read more

Boulder Condos Market Recap

I’ve had many of you ask me when we talk on the phone if the Boulder condo market is hanging in there.

What I’m seeing is that the market for Boulder condos still remains strong, especially in the central Boulder area. As usual, homes that are prepared to show well, priced right and marketed properly (and where buyers actually look for homes) sell in very reasonable time. My forecast is: as we get into the warm months we’ll see market time shorten drastically for well-prepared and well-marketed condos. The local economic situation is very good.

Here’s what the data looks like for March 2008: Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market February Update

Here are the statistics for the Boulder real estate market for February 2008. The first thing I’m seeing is that there are, as expected, more homes sold than the previous month. We’ve had some pretty decent weather so it’s been easier to present and show homes than last year during this time.

The Boulder real estate market still has a pretty wide variety of price ranges. I’m seeing some trends Read more

Housing Stats For Boulder Real Estate And Beyond

I often give you basic sales statistics for Boulder real estate but some of you have asked for other cites so here are some stats for the other communities around Boulder County for January 2008.

Looks to me like Erie’s taking a little long to get homes sold, Superior has crept up in price (or at least the six homes sold are in a little higher price range), there isn’t much for sale in Superior, Louisville inventory is selling rather quickly and all of these cities except Superior look like they have average prices that fit into the new guidelines for FHA loan limits.

Let’s take a look at the numbers… Read more

I think many of you that have had your eyes and ears pinned to the national media will find surprising numbers here. I keep hearing from people in different parts of the U.S. that wonder if Boulder is feeling the same depressive trends in real estate that many parts of the country are feeling.

Some seem surprised when I tell them that our area is NOT in the same trend and in fact Read more

December Boulder Real Estate Market Wrap-Up

The December 2007 Boulder real estate market statistics show that 49 single family homes sold in that time period between 12/1/7 and 12/31/7. Given the holidays and many people vacationing, the couple of snow storms and all that, not too shabby. Remember though, most of these probably were under contract sometime in November.

Here’s the rough break-down: Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market Update

Your Boulder real estate market update for this week includes single family homes and attached (condos/townhomes) sold data.

The activity is pretty good considering it’s the week prior to a major holiday. I managed to see two of my clients get a home under contract and we’ll see those sales recorded in January.

Boulder Real Estate Market Update

The Boulder real estate market data shows that there were 10 single family homes sold and recorded this week for an average price of $649,475.00.

With a high price of $1,415,000 and a low price of $350,000 we’re still seeing activity across all price ranges. The average sales price of these 10 sold homes is 97% of the listing (asking) price. Not to shabby but with Average Days on Market (ADOM) at 126 I’m thinking there are still some sellers coming in a little high on the price when they entered the market.

Only two of these homes hit the pricing right Read more

Superior CO Real Estate Market Update

This wasn’t a very active week for Superior CO real estate in the condo market.

Of the 21 condos for sale in Superior, there were no recorded sales this week. Maybe it’s the weather?

A very large proportion of these condos are located Read more

Louisville Market Data From Your Boulder Realtor

As a Boulder Realtor, I tend to work for my clients all over the metro area and one city in particular that I often spend time in is Louisville, CO.

One of my past clients and a member of my “Inner Circle” reminded me that I need to get some data out on Louisville sold property.

We won’t have the 2007 year end data for a little while but we have some interesting information so far for Louisville. Let’s compare the prices vs. number of homes sold first. Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market Summary

This Boulder real estate market summary covers single family homes sold in the last week (12/1/7 through 12/7/7 inclusive).

We saw 11 homes sold with an average price of $694.317.

Considering that the average price in Boulder recently is just over $500,000, this looks like some pretty good activity and makes it look like prices are holding reasonably well for single family homes in the City of Boulder.

The high price was $1,330,000 and the low price for sold homes last week was $317,500. Here’s a summary of the two ends of the spectrum for this week. Read more

With four new homes for sale and another eight dropping their prices, things are still active in the Boulder Real Estate market.

Of the twelve homes in this recent review, there’s still a wide spread in price from $177,900 to $634,987.

Now there are many more for sale, don’t misunderstand me, these are just the changes in the last day. Ok, so of these 12, the average price is $634,987 and the average days they’ve been on the market is down to 61 days.

It’s pretty clear though that Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market Update

This is the Boulder Real Estate Update for Thanksgiving week.

While we’ve had a short week (so far), there is only one recorded single family home sold.

Like my last report, this search of sold property in Boulder only includes single family homes. Condo sales I frequently report as separate data. I’ll let you know if it’s a combined report of course!

With over 380 homes for sale in Boulder, it’s plain to see that there’s a little less activity getting homes sold in Boulder during this short week!

Okay, yep we’re still working today, for a short while anyway, getting this post done. I did also get a call late yesterday… Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market Wrap Up

The Boulder real estate market still shows some action but according to the recent data only 15 homes were recorded as sold with closed transactions in the last week between November 12th and November 16th.

What’s surprising to some people is that there are still homes in Boulder selling for as low as $259,000. Yeah, million dollar homes in Boulder have become commonplace but there are still some homes available in more affordable price ranges. It’s all relative I suppose. Lately, my buyer clients coming from California seem to think Read more

Boulder Real Estate Market Summary

exterior.jpgHere’s a summary on what’s been going on in the Boulder real estate market for condos. While it’s worth considering the Water Street project, pictured left, since there’s only one for sale now, consider some other interesting news: An interesting tid-bit and a bit of news to me is that the Northfield Commons project is all condos.

Nora Ziel , one of my most reliable mortgage consultants, tells me that she found recently that the properties at Northfield Commons are all being sold as condos. What this means is that you’re buying air space and not land (in simple terms). Not a big problem for many people but Read more
