Briargate Colorado Springs Housing Market, what are homes worth this Spring?

 

Welcome to the Spring Seller's Market.

  • The Briargate median home sales price hit a crazy high of $380,000 - up 22.6% over March one year ago, with an average of 42 days on the market. 

 

You've probably heard the real estate term "thinventory"? Briargate personifies it.

  • In March, there was only 1.5 month's supply of homes available for buyers actively looking in the Briargate neighboorhood. Down 28.6% from a year ago.

Briargate Housing Market for March 2017

How does Briargate home sales compare to the greater El Paso County area?

  • the Median Sales Price for El Paso County in March was $265,785 for a Single Family/Patio Home. Up 10.8 % from a year ago.

  • Homes priced between $200,000 - $400,000 make up the sweet spot with 758 of the 1128 homes SOLD in March.
  • Buyers - don't be discouraged, a fresh batch of spring inventory hits the market each week. Now's the time to talk to your lender and get pre-qualified. This step is crucial as Sellers want a pre-qual letter WITH your offer. I can help you be more successful in winning that bid for your perfect home if we present a strong, clean offer accompanied with a preferred, local lender's letter.

  • Sellers - buyers are looking for homes like yours, if you're thinking about selling THIS is the time to put your home on the market. Inventory is low and home values have increased. Fewer homes on the market means less competition and the opportunity to sell quickly.  

Not sure what your home is worth? I’d be happy to offer you a thorough analysis of your home's value. I look at more than just neighborhood comps for the last 6 months. I'm also checking the location within a master-planned community like Briargate, lot sizes, home improvements and mechanical updates (or lack of), age, condition and curb appeal.

 

And, as part of listing with Front Porch Team Real Estate & Property Styling, I offer ALL my sellers comprehensive staging services (including some pretty cool inventory) that encourages a top offer, fast. Not sure staging makes much of a difference? Take a look at this BEFORE & AFTER of a recent listing that received a cash offer hours after we put it online:

Kim, Briargate home sales are really smokin' as well as your El Paso County.

For a 1 1/2 month supply of homes I am surprised that your median days on market for the county is in the 30's.  You have a very impressive sale to list price ratio, Kim!  

Hope you get some qualified buyers looking for homes for sale in Briargate or other areas of El Paso County  from reading your market report, Kim!  

I like how you tied in that great video from your previous blog post on the amazing transformation that your staging makes in selling your listings.

Have a GREAT week, Kim!

Ha, for sure Will Hamm! Hope sales are going your way up there!

 

Bruce Walter that sweet spot range is poker red hot! A sorry lack of inventory keeps inflating these prices to an extreme... not comfortable at all where this is headed. Thanks so much for your continued support!! Always great to see you here - Happy Hump day!

Thank you Joan Cox. Briargate is a wonderful community, tons of great shopping and restaurants with affordable, quality inventory - buyers need to be ready to act and sellers need to jump in before summer comes.
