A LETTER FROM

OUR MANAGING BROKER As we reach the midpoint of 2026, the Vail Valley real estate market continues to ref lect the qualities that have long def ined this exceptional region: enduring demand, limited supply, and lasting value. While national headlines remain focused on interest rates and broader economic uncertainty, inventory continues to be the more signif icant factor shaping real estate conditions. Nationally, supply remains near four months, a level generally considered balanced and still below the six-month threshold historically associated with meaningful price declines. Here in the Vail Valley, constrained inventory and continued buyer interest are supporting a stable and resilient market. Through midyear, closed transactions in the Vail Valley are up 8% compared with 2025. Pending sales are also signif icantly ahead of last year, signaling continued buyer engagement and positive momentum heading into the second half of the year. These results reinforce the enduring appeal of our communities and the conf idence buyers continue to place in Vail Valley real estate. At the same time, some properties are taking longer to sell, making thoughtful pricing, strong presentation, and an informed marketing strategy increasingly important. Sale-to-list price ratios across Colorado?s markets remain generally strong, demonstrating that well-positioned properties continue to command meaningful offers. In today?s environment, local knowledge and careful preparation can make a signif icant difference in the outcome of a sale or purchase. At Slifer Smith & Frampton, we understand that real estate decisions in the Vail Valley are about far more than market statistics. They are often connected to lifestyle, family, legacy, and a lasting connection to this community. Our brokers bring decades of local experience, thoughtful counsel, and a deep understanding of the nuances that distinguish each neighborhood and property. As we look toward the second half of 2026, increased pending activity, steady demand, and limited inventory provide a strong foundation for the months ahead. We remain conf ident in the long-term strength of the Vail Valley and deeply committed to helping our clients navigate every opportunity with clarity and conf idence.

EAST VAIL & BOOTH CREEK East Vail represents Vail's most rugged and pristine residential frontier, nestled against the dramatic Gore Range with a character distinctly different from the resort's central neighborhoods. Here, homes are positioned at the intersection of a wild mountain landscape and a carefully planned residential development, offering residents an unparalleled connection to Colorado's alpine environment. Characterized by larger lots and a more natural setting, East Vail appeals to homeowners seeking proximity to both wilderness and community infrastructure. Properties range from modest mountain cabins to sophisticated alpine homes, all united by breathtaking views of surrounding peaks and immediate access to national forest lands. The neighborhood provides direct entry points to hiking, climbing, and backcountry skiing, making it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize raw natural experience. Despite its seemingly remote character, East Vail remains conveniently connected to Vail's core amenities, with a free bus system and quick access to the ski area. This unique position creates a residential environment that balances wild mountain living with the convenience of a world-class mountain destination.

CASCADE VILLAGE Cascade Village offers a distinctive residential enclave at the western edge of Vail, where mountain access and tranquility come together.

Set apart from Vail?s core, Cascade Village offers a peaceful, residential atmosphere ideal for those seeking privacy and quiet while remaining within easy reach of the valley?s shops, restaurants, and cultural amenities.

LAKE CREEK VALLEY Lake Creek Valley f ills its beautiful, eponymous valley with rustic residential environment, offering a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and strategic mountain positioning. Located just west of Edwards, this area provides homeowners an opportunity to immerse themselves in a more secluded mountain landscape while maintaining convenient access to regional amenities. Characterized by larger agricultural and residential lots, Lake Creek Valley appeals to those seeking a more expansive and private mountain living experience.

The landscape transitions between open meadows and aspen-covered hillsides, creating a living environment that feels both wild and naturally maintained. For homeowners prioritizing privacy, natural beauty, and a genuine connection to mountain terrain, Lake Creek Valley offers a distinctive residential option. Its location provides easy access to Edwards' services while maintaining a sense of retreat that feels worlds away from more populated mountain developments. Slifer Smith & Frampton Real Estate | 36
