UNDER CONTRACT | 500 Lashley Street, Unit 45, Longmont

I have never met this client in person.

That may sound unusual, but it is becoming more common. This one started with a referral from an agent in California, who connected me with a father living in Hawaii. His son lives here in Boulder, and they were working together to purchase the son's first property in Longmont.

It has all come together through trusted relationships, clear communication and sometimes something as simple as picking up the phone. Interestingly, three of my current clients are people I have never met face to face. It is a good reminder of how far a strong network can reach and how much of this business still comes down to communication and trust.

Now this end unit townhome is under contract, and a first time buyer is one step closer to owning his first home in Colorado.
If you have family helping you make a move from another state, I am always happy to be your local set of eyes and your boots on the ground.

UNDER CONTRACT | 2143 Imperial Lane, Superior

This one is a good example of what we’re seeing in a more balanced, normal market.

The sellers did the work to prepare the home, including tasteful kitchen updates with new stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. It was well presented, competitively priced, and received an offer in 57 days.

Rock Creek continues to be a strong neighborhood, with convenient access to Boulder, Denver, E-470, and the airport.

The market is not unusually fast or unusually slow. Well-prepared homes are still finding buyers, but pricing, presentation, and a little patience all matter.

Mary Oskay represented the sellers for Oskay + Pickels Group. Congratulations to Mary and her clients on getting this one under contract.

The latest issue of Your Triple Shot, Market Edition is out later today.

This issue looks at uncertainty without instability. Closed sales were down from last August, buyers have more choices, and attached homes are moving at a different pace than detached homes. But values are not collapsing.

Also inside, a better way to read your P&L by separating cost of delivery, customer acquisition, operating expenses, and profit. Plus, a few reflections from working up in the hills and what I am thinking about as we head toward 2027.

UNCERTAINTY

The headlines feel uncertain. However the housing market has been surprisingly steady the last 18 months. Sales are slower, but prices and inventory haven’t moved much. The numbers are in for August. Welcome to a normal / balanced market.

A little look at what we’ve been up to lately at Oskay + Pickels.

There’s plenty of noise around the real estate market right now, but from where I sit, it feels remarkably steady. The latest numbers are through July. Closed sales were down about 11% month over month and 5% year over year, while average days on market ticked up from 39 to 41 days.

Zoom out and the bigger picture is interesting. For the last four years, closed sales through July have landed between roughly 25,000 and 26,000 units every year. Remarkably consistent. COVID increasingly looks like the anomaly.

That doesn't mean everyone has experienced this market the same way. Condo and townhome owners have felt more pressure, along with recent buyers and resale sellers competing against builders who can offer pricing, financing incentives, rate buydowns, and other concessions.

Overall, it feels like we've settled into a more normal market. Buyers have choices, sellers need to be thoughtful, and good properties are still getting sold.

A more balanced market. Still plenty of moves being made.

Here are a few of the moves we've been fortunate to be part of lately.

The latest issue of Your Triple Shot, Freestyle Edition, is out.

This time, I’m looking at accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, and why the next house may already be hiding in the backyard.

Depending on the property and local regulations, an ADU can create rental income, provide space for aging parents or adult children, accommodate guests or caregivers, or simply add a flexible home office. In certain situations, it may also create meaningful long term value and additional options for what an owner can keep, sell, or rent. We are already seeing some interesting trends out further West in California + Washington.

Also inside this Freestyle Edition, a look at moving from AI chats into workflows, why the COVID housing market is the anomaly, and a few updates on what’s on the boards here at the office.
