Fractional real estate sales driving the market

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 06:44:00 +0000

Our fractional market sales are picking up with more luxury condominium options including 1/8 and 1/12 th shares (new construction) at One Steamboat Place, ski-in ski-out resales of 1/7th share at the Christie Club, 1/8th shares of large custom townhomes at the Porches.

Three and four bedroom higher quality residences drive Steamboat mountain area real estate sales

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 15:39:00 +0000

Sales for townhomes and condominiums in the mountain area have been down since January 1, 2009. This is good news for buyers looking for a good deal, but how good of deal will depend on what you are looking for. Especially, if you want a nice 3 plus bedroom residence near the mountain.

Data from our MLS indicates 67% of the new pending sales & sold since Jan 1, 2009 have been 3 or more bedroom units that are close to the mountain and of higher end construction. All but one are over $800,000 as of March 22nd.

Despite the sales, our inventory continues to increase each month, which should result in lower housing prices. This is not consistent across the real estate offered however. We are seeing a much larger increase in the studio, 1 and 2 bedroom residences because this is 50% of the new inventory since Jan 1, yet only 7% of that inventory is selling.

Meanwhile, there are 11 sales for every 49 new listings that are 3 & 4 bedroom properties. And not all this inventory is actually new. Its common here for sellers to pull their listing from the MLS, then re-list with a different price. As example, the new construction projects -- The Porches and Stonewood at Eagleridge.

In summary, if you are looking for a 3 or 4 bedroom property with higher end finishes close to the mountain, then compare the actual new listings with what is selling. You will find there is not a big increase in new inventory that fits your criteria. Also, you'll find this is the real estate others are purchasing now. I don't believe we'll see the big price drops.

If you are looking for a studio, 1 or 2 bedroom residence, I'm guessing we'll continue to see price drops or sellers willing to make a good deal. The inventory is growing much faster than the sales.

We have more condos or townhouses near the mountain now then ever before, interest rates are historically the lowest we've seen (hovering around 4-1/2% last week) so, if you are looking to buy near the Steamboat Ski Area, this is a good time to look for a bargain.

To get the full report, please contact me.

The best deal - last sale at $565,000 now listed at $425,000. Lowest price/sq.ft near the mountain --Make offer.

Moose adds to Steamboat's entertainment

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 13:14:00 +0000

Steamboats Torian Plum - Creekside condominiums offer ski-in access, large outdoor heated pool, hot tub, and moose watching. What else could you ask for?

Seriously though, we're glad that no one was hurt. Once in-awhile you'll run into one of these while biking or hiking in the summer as well. I recommend turning down the volume before playing this video.

New developments are rounding the corner to the closing table

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 23:57:00 +0000

Trailhead at Wildhorse is about complete so you no longer have to speculate on what you get for your money. They are offering the original selection day pricing on 5 units which may help them get closer to selling out by the end of May. 75% are currently under contract.

• Residence 3107 (1bdrm & den): Current Price: $875,000 [Now] $780,000

• Residence 2120 (2bdrm): Current Price: $1,000,000 [Now] $940,000

• Residence 4118 (2bdrm & den): Current Price: $1,365,000 [Now] $1,345,000

• Residence 2102 (3bdrm): Current Price: $1,580,000 [Now] $1,500,000

• Residence 4100 (3bdrm & den): Current Price: $2,340,000 [Now] $2,325,000

I have to say that they have lived up to expectations in finish quality on the interiors, exterior looks sharp and the amenities is line with the best Steamboat has to offer. The new gondola will be the icing on the cake and we should know the estimated completion date soon.

Not much Stimulation

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 15:16:00 +0000

Well, it appears the Stimulus Bill is not going to deliver as hoped when it comes to the housing crisis. The tax incentive was cut back and I just don't see how a $8000 tax credit is going to be much incentive to run out there and make a deal. It may cover your closing costs, but in this market, I think you could negotiate more than that from the seller and spend your tax credit on some new furniture. And maybe that will help the economy.

The good news about this national crisis is, Steamboat is feeling some of the pain, therefore, sellers are dropping prices. Some as much as 20 to 30 percent.

So lets talk about why we live in Steamboat Springs. We've had 272 inches of Snow this year and its snowing again this morning. Watching the news is depressing, so get out, ski and let me know if you want to know where the best opportunities are here.

Prices dropping, low interest rates and tax credits create deals for Steamboat Buyers.

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 00:21:00 +0000

Thanks to Colorado Association of Realtors for providing this update.

The United States Senate unanimously passed this week a bipartisan amendment to the Economic Stimulus Bill creating a $15,000 tax credit to individuals who purchase a home in the next year. The stimulus bill would provide a direct tax credit to any homebuyer who purchases any home. The amount of the tax credit would be $15,000 or 10 percent of the purchase price, whichever is less. Purchases must be made within one year of the legislation’s enactment, and the tax credit would not have to be repaid.

The final details of the Stimulus Bill are still being debated. The vote is moved until tomorrow, so we'll see what happens.

Interest rates are still close to 5%, prices on many Steamboat Springs properties have dropped over 20%, and now you may have a tax credit.

If you have thought about purchasing in Steamboat, take a look at what the cost of owning was in 2005 in comparison to today. You have not missed the Boat, there are good deals out there.

Contact me for an updated list of recent sales. I'll also send a list of the properties I believe you'll consider a good deal. If the seller hasn't dropped their price at least 10% recently, I will not bother sending the listing, unless its already priced lower than any other in the development..

Owners of Steamboat Ski Corp may have money trouble again

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 15:01:00 +0000

Fortress, the financing backers of Steamboat Ski area and several base area redevelopment projects, have seen their stock plunge 95% during the last year. Ski Corp reports they are exploring options to refinance and they have no plans to sell.

The Atira Group and Cafritz, developers involved with the renovations of Ski Time Square, Thunderhead Lodge and Edgemont say they will proceed ahead with 1 million square feet of high-end residential and commercial space despite the news, reports the Steamboat Pilot.

Should they keep building? Is the demand there? Can they deliver? All are good questions. Last spring I was involved with negotiations on a property where we were concerned with how they handled the earnest money. I was assured by the developers sales team, that my clients earnest money was in good hands because they were "backed by Fortress". I'm not trying to say that they won't deliver as promised, but as we've all seen in the past year or so, being big doesn't hold much weight anymore. Fortress is at $1.68/share down from a high of $37/share about Jan 2007.

Make sure you are comfortable with the terms of your contract, "AND BE AWARE OF DEVELOPER CONTRACTS" as they tend to give the developer every out and few, if any outs for the Buyer. Ask what happens to your earnest money in event of a default by you or your developer.

Plans for Edgemont and Thunderhead Lodge both look outstanding and could prove to be a great investment since Ski-in real estate is limited. However, there are many factors to consider when buying pre-construction. If you want more information on the base area re-development plan, the new ski-in condominiums known as Edgemont or information on what the plan is for Thunderhead Lodge, please contact me. I've been involved with new construction launches for close to 10 years now and can provide some history and examples of how it has panned out for clients and myself as an investor.

Steamboat Ski-in condominium Investment information

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 12:54:00 +0000

What is going to effect your ski-in condominium investment?

In 2005, the City of Steamboat Springs passed an urban renewal authority (SSRA) to start redevelopment of the base area. So far, $23 million in Steamboat Unbridled revitalization projects are underway, reports Steamboat Resort Ski and Resort Corporation.

2006 Steamboat is for sale. December 2006 - Intrawest ULC has agreed to buy the Steamboat Ski Area and related assets for $265 million from American Skiing Co.

2007 Intrawest doesn't waste anytime, we saw the bulldozers hit the slopes that feed the base area. This began the revitalization which is transforming a once steep and slanting slope into a beginner friendly experience.

2008 the Ski-Time Square buildings come down, several walkways are torn up, snow melting system are put into place, a new traffic circle is completed to ease traffic problems from shuttles and busses. Though many of us locals are sorry to see the legendary Steamboat establishments such as Dos Amigos, Mother's Deli, the Butcher shop fall to the track-hoe, a new look to Ski-time square is needed.

2009 we enter the phase of Promenade and Daylighting of Burgess Creek around the Base Area. The Promenade will form a pedestrian connection from the Ptarmigan on the Southeast side of the ski runs to the Thunderhead and Torian Plazas. As a key feature of summertime, Burgess Creek will surface through the entire base area and will provide for a fun summer.

Plans include an amphitheater and Burgess Creek flowing alongside the promenade in the summer to form a series of pools and falls. Outdoor dining, a fire pit, focal landscaping and a pedestrian connection from Mt. Werner circle to to the promenade. The base will come together so you can walk from the retail shops, restaurants and bars at Torian Plaza to the elegant spa, alpine clubs, restaurants, and music venues at One Steamboat Place and around the Gondola. From there, take a gondola ride up to Rendezvous to enjoy one of the best views in the U.S.A and enjoy some incredible food atop a mountain.

Work has been progressing on construction plans but the progression of the Promenade may lie in the hands of the Torian Plum property owners. Projects constructed by the SSRA on private property are funded by sales tax revenue to bond the capital construction. However, the cost to manage the Operations and Maintenance are the responsibility of the home owners.

So I began with a question, how will this effect your condominium investment? Well, bad news 1st - all property owners along the Promenade contribute to a joint fund to take care of operations and maintenance. This is the dollars it costs to keep up the snow management, landscape maintenance, cleaning, repairs, and utilities. Ski Corp (SSRC) will take care of maintenance, but each property owner will contribute based on the square footage of improvements on each property. In other words, your HOA (Homeowner Assoociations Fees) will go up some on existing properties included in the Promenade plan. New construction budgets are calculating these costs into their budgets.

How much will HOA's go up on the effected existing properties like Torian Plum? From my calculations, not significant in comparison to the benefits the improvement will bring. I would hope the existing owners see the potential. If you count on rental incomes to help offset the HOA fees and taxes, then consider what someone spending $1000s / week to visit here would like to experience.

Now the good news. From 2006 we've seen some ski-in real estate appreciate as much as 33% per year. This was calculated on a sale in 2008 of a similar condo. Some is higher and others like The Grand at Steamboat are lower -closer to 6%/ year. Of course, all we see lately is bad news, but you have to ask yourself, if you could buy and hold, (enjoy some world class skiing in the meantime) what will your investment return when the revitalization is complete?

Property sales have slowed so our inventories are up, interest rates are historic lows, Steamboat is being re-defined. Realistically, its a much better year to negotiate a good deal then it has been in the past 2 or 3 years. Almost all of the One Steamboat Place development has been pre-sold at over $1000.00 per square foot = $2.3 million and up. Edgemont is pre-selling - many units in mid to late 2008 for $1200/sq.ft range and a property at Torian Plum starts at just over $500.00 per sq.ft. I'm pretty sure you have to at least x $500 by 3 to invest in Beaver Creek or Vail.

I can't say how much the new base area plan, when complete, will increase your investment. I can provide you the details that you should consider when buying a condo on the slope of Steamboat Ski Area.

If you have any further questions on the re-development plan, Steamboat Springs market conditions, real estate sale stats, HOA information etc... give me a call.

Protect your Home and Family

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 00:20:00 +0000

Carbon monoxide deaths have been all over the news recently.

My earlier years as a building contractor involved installing in-floor heating systems with natural gas fired boilers. The family of 4 that died in Aspen still bothers me as I can think of so many homes I've seen as a Realtor or worked on as a contractor, that did not have detectors.

The question is, do the mechanical systems in these homes hold up with the test of time, weather, animals, moving furniture, kids playing around etc.? From what I read, the Aspen family died because a snow melt system boiler venting connection was either missing or not connected properly.

The fact is, home heating systems are mechanical and like cars and airplanes, mechanical systems at times fail somehow. Hopefully without the catastrophic results as we've seen in the news recently, but regardless, there is no room for error.

A carbon monoxide detector costs $18 at home depot in Denver for the least expensive that should do the job. Installation is simple. If you live in Steamboat and can't find someone handy to install, let me know and I'll be happy to help you out.

Here's what is in the works, but why wait for legislation.

Concerning the required use of Carbon Monoxide Detectors – was heard in the House Business Affairs Committee earlier this week. As introduced, it will require that all single and mulit-family properties for sale, rent or transfer beginning July 1, 2009 be outfitted with the detectors. Legislative Policy Committee Vice-Chair, Sunny Banka, testified in support of the bill while pushing for amendments related to REALTOR® liability, sellers’ duties, and adequate notification.

Steamboat Water Debate

noreply@blogger.com (Steamboat Springs, CO Realtor® Dean Laird) — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 00:03:00 +0000

Having hashed out differences on affordable housing and other issues, water rights could shape up to be the next big debate between the city of Steamboat Springs and developers hoping for annexation into city limits - reports Brandon Gee of the Steamboat Pilot.

My hats are off to the city council members taking on these tough issues. Our development has run rampant with the great market it is has been for the past several years and now reality is beginning to bite back. I've heard rumors that our sewer is at 90% of its capacity during holidays, you would have to be living with your eyes closed to not see the increased traffic. We can't step back in time and make a road plan that works for today, but we can look ahead and plan for what is inevitable if we continue to build without considering all the consequences. Our resources are limited, lets plan for the worst and hope for the best as they say.
