Joan: It sure does look like the winter weather has slowed sales in the Castle Rock real estate market but I bet it picks up soon with spring on the horizon.  Good report.

Good morning Joan -

Living in the Town of Castle Rock offers many advantages.  I would think the market in the Town of Castle Rock will pick back up with spring just around the corner.  Keep us posted.

Good Morning Joan, 

 

This sounds like a nice community, let's hope the Spring will improve the market for these sellers.

I love seeing market reports from other parts of the country. One thing I have noticed, we all seem to have low inventory!!!

Hey there Joan -  are you dug out from the snow yesterday? Good thing you have that heavy duty snowblower. :)

Great market report for Castle Rock - as usual, you're the one with the clear understanding of the markets in the greater Denver area. That's what makes you such a great agent. Have a good one...

Joan, your description of Castle Pines Village sounds inviting.  Unfortunately, we are in sellers market; so, we have so few homes to offer buyers at each price point.  On the positive side, one of our listings is in a multiple bid situation....

Joan...I have always loved Castle Rock. I go to the outlet mall every time I am in the area (which is fairly often).

Joan, Another great market report for Castle Rock CO.  One thing I forget is how weather impacts sales in other areas.  With the snow fall that your area gets it makes sense that sales are seasonally down.

It has been snowing quite a bit lately, and had a bit more last night, so we have a good layer of white!    Castle Rock is a beautiful town, and as Jeff says - the outlet mall is quite popular!
