Good news for Snowmass Base Village.  The Aspen Skiing Company and Centurion Partners, builders of the very popular Residences at Little Nell in Aspen, have both entered a bid to purchase the stalled development.

2011 has made a dramatic up-turn in sales.  Several months have seen a decrease in sales; however the dollar volume and number of properties sold are up for the year.  If you are on the fence and waiting for prices to continue to go down I would like to send a word of caution.  There are still properties that are way over priced and need to come down to the price per square foot were things are selling.  We will still see those drop.  With the numbers you will see below, and on the attached PDF below, of figures from Land Title Guarantee the inventory is going to start going down fairly rapidly.  The overpriced properties will take care of themselves as prices will start to rise.  This is the first  time in three years that we have seen an increase in numbers across the board.  It’s still a buyer’s market and  I would hate for you to miss this opportunity.  Contact me if you would more information.
