Even with the seasonal slowdown, the Windsor CO real estate market had a strong year and performed better than in 2010 or 2011 - sales were up and prices ended the year by trending upward. Inventory remains at lower than optimal levels, and will be something we'll be watching carefully as we move into spring of 2013. Overall, we believe that the improvement experienced this past year will be sustained by a stronger regional economy.

And even during this slower winter season, we should see some buyers active in the market, attracted by a reasonable supply of nicely-priced homes and continuing favorable interest rates. Their interest will be focused on those homes that are priced competitively and that are properly prepared for the market.
