ANALYSIS:

With median sales prices in the low to mid 300’s, Pinecliff, like many other similar neighborhoods, has been impacted by a lower number of ready move up buyers.

Looking through the key indicators reflects a very stable market.

Volume remained the same with 10 houses closed through the 9 months of both 2010 and 2011.

The lowest sales price of about $260,000 remained the same both years.

Sales price to list price was 97% for 2010  and 96% for 2011. Good job by both the listing agents and sellers.

An area of slight concern is that both the list price per square foot and sales price per square foot declined by over $10 per square foot. Some of that is because some of the 2011 sales were houses larger than those sold in 2010.

SUMMARY:

If you are looking to be close to the tech industry, downtown and colleges, as well as in Colorado Springs popular school District 20, Pinecliff offers a great location and value.

These houses are at an age that some have had their functional components, roof, heat and AC, water heater, etc. updated and some houses need to have these items replaced.

As Colorado Springs only “Home Inspection & Safety Consultant” I can help you compare the value of one house that needs updating to another that has been updated.
