A Snap Shot of 2020
2020 was a year like no other! For the 1st quarter we had no business at all. By May 1st the COVID pandemic had fueled a panic escape from the cities to the mountains. Communities across the Park’s 6 million acres were a bustle with folks seeking refuge in a safer and quieter environment. As a result, sales transactions took off, people started buying properties sight unseen, relying solely on our virtual tours and quality videos. Our sales volume for the year ended up 59% totaling $175,000,000+ which smashed a record high of $122M in 2018. To date, our transaction volume is over $500M in just a short 3 year time period. The year ended with a diminishing inventory and strong consumer demand. Going forward we anticipate that the market will remain strong. So if you’re in the market to sell, now is the time!
