While the market data continues to show a seasonal slowdown for Windsor CO, it is interesting to note that the effects are of a smaller magnitude than those experienced in other Northern Colorado communities. The sales decline is offset by an average price increase and steady inventories, which also actually declined less here than elsewhere. While we will have to wait for spring of 2013 for a clear indication of where the Windsor market is headed, there is a lot of reason to be optimistic about the likelihood of a steady recovery.

And the winter market, while slower, will still provide some excellent opportunities for buyers looking for nice, well-priced homes, assisted by favorable interest rates. Those sellers who price their homes competitively and prepare them properly are likely to attract some interest.
