What does that mean for buyers interested in Steamboat real estate?
Our market has definitely slowed as some buyers take a wait-and-see attitude toward the economy. On the flip side, we have more inventory to choose from so you can look around and find exactly what you want.
Savvy buyers purchase real estate (or stocks, or whatever) when market conditions slow down. Last year, sellers set prices, but this year buyers have more negotiating room.
