Real estate sales in June 2020 saw a strong rebound from May, with 45 transactions. While that trails the 56 transactions from last year, it still indicates a sharp recovery from the springtime slowdown caused by the Corona Virus. With nearly 100 properties under contract currently, July should also post strong sales numbers. In fact, the local market is so busy currently, it’s difficult to get an appraisal in less than 5 weeks, and inspections are also difficult to schedule on a short time frame. With low interest rates, low inventory, and continued interest from buyers, at this time I’m still expecting prices to stay steady in the area.

The following year over year graphs compare the previous 365 days with the same period one year ago (i.e. 6/30/2018 through 6/30/2019 versus the same period from 2019 to 2020). With such a small market (sample size) these numbers can jump around, so it’s worth comparing these graphs over a period of time.

- Crested Butte South: Inventory rose, but so did the number of properties under contract. Looking to sell? This is a great time to do so in CB South.
- Mount Crested Butte (All Residential): Much like CB South, inventory and pending sales rose correspondingly. For condos only, see below:
- Mount Crested Butte (Condos/Townhomes): Lower-priced condos remain in short supply near the ski area, and good values have been moving quickly.
- Crested Butte: Downtown has been quite active, with several high priced properties either selling or going under contract. Several vacant land parcels are under contract as well, including one listed at $2.35M.
- Crested Butte Area: This category includes neighborhoods such as Skyland, Larkspur, Riverbend, Meridian Lake and Trapper’s Crossing. This area continues to have the highest median sold price in the area.
- Gunnison: 22 of Gunnison’s 49 listings are currently under contract.
- Gunnison Area: This includes areas such as Dos Rios, Ohio Meadows, Cranor Hill, and Hartman Rocks. Along with downtown Gunnison, the surrounding area has been extremely active.
