Durango Comparative Real Estate Statistics 2016 vs 2015

By
Real Estate Agent with Team Lorenz

As is my custom 4 times per year, I have compiled the Durango comparative real estate statistics for 2016 vs 2015 for the 1st 6 months of each year. Overall sales volume is almost unchanged this year compared to last but the 2 price brackets with increases in number of units sold this year are the $200,000-$400,000 and the $400,000-$600,000 price ranges. Unfortunately that is also where the largest decrease in available units has occurred consequently I would expect to see rising prices in those 2 "sweet spots". It is hard to believe that there are actually 200 less units available for sale this year compared to last year in spite of the new construction going on out in 3 Springs, Trimble Crossing and Estancia.Here is a link to my more detailed electronic newsletter that also has a link to the full analysis by $200,000 price brackets.

I always say to my team members you must know the market in order to be a good real estate broker and that information needs to be shared with our buyers and our sellers so that they can make educated decisions. Please feel free to contact us to discuss this information in greater detail. We would love for you to spend some time on our website and here is a link to that:

I love the Durango area, thank you for sharing. Great work with the statistics and analysis present here. We're seeing a lot of competition for the moderately priced units out here too.

Cody, you are right, the moderately priced market is strong on demand but short on supply. Our higher-end properties, many of which get purchased by people in the oil and gas industry (which is a major business in our part of the state) has been the most affected and that there are far fewer buyers for the higher-end properties now.

Jim, I've been keeping statistics like this for years and have them posted on my website. It's a great way to determine trends in the market place. Like all real estate markets, there are little niches that "buck the trend" and by breaking down all of our residential transactions by $200,000 price increments most of my buyers and sellers really appreciate the insights that it provides. It takes almost a day to gather all the numbers and then do an analysis/interpretation of those numbers. Time and money well spent.
