It’s an exciting time for Breckenridge Associates Real Estate, we’re celebrating our platinum anniversary in 2019 - we just turned 20!

When opening our doors on Main Street in 1999, Breckenridge was growing into what it is today - a bustling mountain town with all the attractions to make it a worthwhile destination any time of the year. As we formed the team of 10 brokers to open our business, we had the vision Breckenridge would continue to grow and thrive.

In 2003, we purchased and moved

If you’ve lived in Breckenridge and Summit County, you’ll notice in recent years there’s something besides snow and sunshine that’s getting a lot of attention. More and more, we’re hearing about moose sightings and interactions in Breckenridge.

Stories of mama moose and her calves in our neighbor’s backyard can be beautiful - you get that “one with nature” feeling of “this is why I live here” to truly experience the joy of wildlife and nature. Quietly watching from your window is perhaps the best way to be in awe of these beautiful animals, but if you encounter one outside it’s best to keep great distance between you and the moose. Your chance of a sighting is best at dusk and dawn, but these days you may see a moose strolling through town on your way

There’s no time like springtime to hit Arapahoe Basin and a day at The Beach. Pack the car, grab some friends and some sunscreen, and hit the road early to secure prime time real estate at the top beach spot in the county, The Beach at A-Basin. Sunny days, spring skiing and riding conditions, and this endless season of snow are sure to make The Beach a perfect set up this spring.

There’s a lot of buzz about happenings in Silverthorne and Dillon as exciting new developments are underway throughout both mountain towns. Numerous projects are coming to life following the completion of the Silverthorne performing arts center and newly renovated Lake Dillon Amphitheatre, including more restaurants, exciting arts and culture, and new housing - all helping to create a new identity for Silverthorne and add new excitement for Dillon.

“Many mountain towns have historic downtowns, but Silverthorne does not, so we have the opportunity to create that history,” Silverthorne’s town manager, Ryan Hyland told the Colorado Real Estate Journal in 2017, when kicking off the redevelopment in the heart of downtown Silverthorne.

One of the most common questions we hear from our clients is, “When is the best time to sell my home?” Sellers, of course, want to make sure they time their listing to take advantage of the best market conditions allowing for the best return on their potential sale. Certainly, our answer depends on a number of variables and considerations specific to individual sellers and properties. But, as a general rule of thumb, getting your property ready for market in the spring will allow for the most exposure to Breckenridge and Summit County buyers heading in to the prime real estate months of the summer. Locally, real estate activity picks up significantly in the summer with more buyers ready to buy and have their home ready for the next winter season.

Due to the record amount of snow that has fallen this season, the Breckenridge Ski Resort has added another MONTH to the season. The mountain is now closing Memorial Day weekend, conditions dependent. That gives you plenty of time to get out here and enjoy some spring skiing!
