Shawn Tully, Senior Editor-At-Large for Fortune Magazine suggests the housing market is back in a recent Fortune Magazine article. He cites two factors that are shaping the real estate market up for recovery - a historic drop in new construction and a steep decline in pricing. Both new construction and pricing have been low due to demand, but Tully suggests this is about to change as the economy and consumer confidence get back to normal levels. Many renters are being lured into the market as the cost of buying has become more appealing; the cost of renting a home can be more than the mortgage would be for the same home. Non-distressed markets, such as the Breckenridge, have a reduced inventory of homes for sale. A modest increase in demand would mean…

New data from the National Association of REALTORS indicates second home market share held even in 2010 in terms of vacation- and investment-home sales. Research shows this segment of the market held steady over 2009, even with transactions declining nationally, suggesting inventory in the second home market is moving at a national level. This is especially good news for healthy destination markets like Breckenridge, which already skew well above national averages in the market segment of secondary home ownership.

Let’s take a closer look at the national data compared to data specific to the local real estate market in Breckenridge.

Check out some of the music on tap in April at our local ski resorts below.

As we jump feet first into Spring with Summer not too far behind, we think about the transition of local business and what it means in to our community. We’ll soon be saying goodbye to skiing and snowboarding and hello to fly fishing and golf. We’ll shift from evenings at home cozied up by the fire and into longer and warmer days ahead, dining and playing outside. While many of us make a point to leave during the shoulder season following the winter wrap-up, when we return we should remember how important it is to support our local community by buying locally and supporting our local businesses as they ramp up for Summer.
