Don’t miss the next one! Glacier View home “gone in 60 seconds”

By
Real Estate Agent with United Country Ponderosa Realty, Red Feather Lakes, Colorado

O.K.- It really wasn't as fast as "60 seconds", however, sales have been brisk and the inventory in Glacier View Meadows is extremely limited.

Today, 6 homes are under contract, with a median price of $317,400, and an average days on Market of 52 days. Days to offer range from 4 days to 84 days.

One of those homes under contract is my listing on Critter Court!  We had several showings on the first day that showings could be scheduled. After the whirlwind of showings and competing offers, it felt like only 60 seconds before we had an accepted offer by the following day.

This 1722 square foot home in Glacier View is nestled among the trees and rock outcroppings with gorgeous expansive views to the East. The quality craftsmanship in this custom built home is notable! It has an open floor plan and many wonderful features throughout.

 

Don’t miss the next one!  We are still getting calls about the home that is already under contract.  Buyers who check online “every other day or so” are a step behind. In a competitive seller’s market, enlist the help of a real estate agent.  (Most real estate agents can enter your search criteria into their MLS to immediately alert you (and your agent) of any new homes that fit your needs.  Not to mention, most real estate agents, like me, check the “hot sheets” throughout the day for new listings too! If you insist on DIY, you can also set up alerts on real estate sites to notify you when a new property goes on the market- but depending on the site, there may be delay.)

Presently, in Glacier View there are only 8 homes available, priced from $239,900 to $1,200,000.

Average days on market for those homes are 133 days….30 days being the shortest and 279 days being the longest. The Median price for Active listings is $362,500.

 

55 homes have sold so far this year.

Low: $142,000, High: $880,000, Average: $361,758 Median: $335,000, Average Days on Market for sold homes: 103

 

Glacier View Meadows, at an elevation of about 7400 feet +/-, has been a popular area for people who are seeking some space and a little bit of peace and quiet away from a crowded city.  For commuters it’s an easy 40-50 minute commute to Fort Collins via Hwy 287.  Most parcels average 2-- 3 acres, (some are larger or smaller), and the HOA maintains the roads, and plows in winter for year ‘round access. 

Glacier View Meadows, in Livermore, Colorado is a great place to live!

I told an agent in my office today "we need listings" because ours have been selling rapidly as well.

Tammy, we need more listings also - almost every listing has sold, so there is not a lot for buyers to see!
