He was curious. Simone was not. 🦌🐾
This young buck (still in velvet) wandered right up, our boy gave him a quick sniff and went about his day.
Just another evening in Southwest Colorado.

Prices are still trending higher across most bands, but months of inventory tell a more nuanced story depending on price point.

Whether you're buying or selling, pricing strategy matters more than ever in this market. Swipe through for the full breakdown by price range, and reach out if you want to talk through what these numbers mean for your specific goals.

Fall color season is already moving through Southwest Colorado. The high country goes first, then the color rolls downhill toward the valleys over the following few weeks.

Silverton and Molas Pass are leading the way in mid September. Ouray follows in late September. Durango rounds it out from late September into early October.

If you want to catch it all, start high and work your way down. The San Juan Skyway makes for an easy loop to see several stages of the season in one trip.

Which stop is on your list first?

The best time to buy a home this year is here.

Realtor.com says September 27–October 3 is expected to bring the best combination of buyer-friendly conditions in 2026.

We’re talking about more homes to choose from, better pricing, less competition, and more time to decide. And maybe that’s enough to offset some of the pressure today’s higher rates are putting on your budget.

Want to find out? Let’s have a quick conversation about what’s expected in our market and what’s available in your price point. Just DM me to get started.

And just so you know, the window doesn’t close after that one week. It’s open all October long.

Twenty five years later, September 11 still stops me in my tracks. We remember those we lost. We honor those who serve. We hold on to the unity this country felt in the days after. Never forget.

Meet Gandolf. 👋

He's a Tennessee Walker who's been settling in at the barn for a few weeks now, and he and Warlock are already getting along great.

It's fun watching a new personality find his place in the herd. 🐴🌲

La Plata County Market Update — September 1, 2026

The market is shifting and the numbers tell the story. Inventory is up across most price points compared to this time last year, and homes are sitting a little longer before finding their buyer.

The $2,000,000+ segment saw the biggest jump, with months of inventory now over 17. Meanwhile the $300,000 to $400,000 and $1,200,000 to $2,000,000 ranges are the exception, actually tightening from last year.

Bottom line, buyers are gaining leverage in more segments than they were a year ago, and sellers who price strategically from day one are the ones getting results.

Curious what this means for your home's value or your search? Send me a message, I'd love to break it down for your specific price point.
