Thanksgiving greetings!
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because, if we are doing it right, the focus is on gratitude. As David Steindl-Rast so eloquently states in his Ted Talk, the key to happiness is gratitude.

I have so much to be grateful for! To name a few. I'm grateful to live in such a beautiful area; I'm grateful to have a successful career where I can meet and work with so many wonderful people; I'm grateful for my dear family; I'm grateful for gift of life and love.

The themes in the local real estate market have not changed. We are still seeing very high sales, low inventory, price appreciation, multiple offers on homes and offers in excess to list price. During the third quarter, Boulder County reached a high water mark since 2007 with 1,745 total sales. Inventory is down 18% and 53% of all sales closed during the quarter went for more than the asking price.

Is the real estate market slowing?
I’m not ready to say that the market has made a turn, but it certainly seems clear that the upward trajectory has slowed over the last few months. Both inventory and interest rates remain low. When that is coupled with strong demand the result is that houses are still selling. In august 49% of closings were for a price above full price. Taken alone that still signals a very strong seller’s market. But when compared to May when 86% of sales were for above list price it isn’t quite as impressive. On average properties sold for 2.9% above list, in May it was 6%. Still a really strong market, but not quite so crazy.
