Real
estate market enjoys big rebound
After
a slow start, Aspen real estate sales shot upward
for three whirlwind months this fall, putting the
market on pace to surpass last year's totals.
Overall sales in the Roaring Fork Valley through
the first three quarters of the year totaled $698.4
million, trailing sales through September 2002 by
about $45 million, according to data tabulated by
the Aspen Board of Realtors. Those tallies include
residential and commercial properties and vacant
land.
In
Aspen alone, residential real estate sales for the
first three quarters totaled $365.4 million, compared
to $386.8 million for the first nine months of 2002.
But, those numbers don't tell the whole story, according
to broker Rich Wagar, whose firm is having its second-biggest
year ever.
"The
first two quarters of this year were really slow,"
he said. "Then we got into August, September,
October — there was a massive catch up."
