I am very pleased to announce another successful week of selling real estate in Crested Butte Colorado. Two of my exclusive listings sold: 599 Nicholson Lake Ridge Road sold for $1,575,000 and 506 7th Street sold for $750,000. Overall, the real estate economy continues to improve in our local market . Home and condo sales have increased over 35% compared to 2012 and in some locations prices are rising for the first time in 5 years. While the residential segment of the market stages it’s comeback, the vacant land / home site segment is still sluggish for sellers.
