Happy 2014 from 9200 ft above sea level!

At Real Estate of Winter Park, we are very confident that our local real estate market will continue to improve in 2014. As you’ll see from our compilation of statistics, 2013 was a better year than 2012 in terms of overall sales volume. While that doesn’t mean sales appreciation occurred, it is imminent as our inventory shrinks across the board.

Vacant land sales were the big winner as the sold volume was up 85% over 2012. We’re seeing more new construction in the area than we’ve seen since 2007 which is very exciting! Condo sales volume in the Granby area was up a whopping 80%. Commercial and income properties in the county soared from 1.8M in sales in 2012 to 5.6M in sales in 2013.

We have kicked off 2014 with epic snow conditions which is ALWAYS good for our local economy, lodging, real estate, business and dispositions! We hope we can share our optimism, knowledge, experience and energy for our wonderful community with you in the coming year.

Warm Regards, The Team at Real Estate of Winter Park

“And now let us believe in a long year that is given to us, new, untouched, full of things that have never been.”

Months of Inventory or Absorption Rate A measure of how balanced the market is between buyers and sellers. It is expressed as the number of months it would hypothetically take to sell through all the available homes for sale, given current levels of home sales. A balanced market ranges from 20 to 30 months of supply. A buyer’s market has a higher number, reflecting fewer buyers relative to homes for sale. A seller’s market has a lower number, reflecting more buyers relative to homes for sale.
