How is the market doing?
That is one of the questions we hear most often. The answer depends on price range, location, condition, timing, and the specific home, but we keep an eye on current MLS Grid data so the conversation starts with real numbers.
For a simple snapshot, here is what has happened with three-bedroom homes since June 30th:
338
three-bedroom homes listed for sale.
$271,174
average original list price for those new listings, trimmed to reduce outlier noise.
$250,714
average sale price for the 264 three-bedroom homes that closed in the same period.
Those closed homes originally listed for an average of $258,833. That list-to-sale relationship is useful context, but every home still needs its own pricing conversation.

Got the pleasure to meet with Ron. He was an absolute pleasure to work with. I lived out of town while searching for a home and set up a day to look at many homes. We looked at least 8 homes within a day. None of the houses that I picked met my expectations. Honestly, I was a bit defeated and went to grab lunch with my family. During lunch, I received a phone call about Ron who after learning my tastes, had a couple of more houses to preview. One of those houses ended up being the house that I decided to put an offer on. That house unfortunately received an offer the same time that I placed mine. Ron was a tremendous help during that bidding war and helped give me the advice to secure my home. After acquiring the house, he was an integral part of helping me navigate through the loan process, the inspection, and closing on the house. I would strongly recommend the folks at AroundCU to anyone looking for a home in the CU area!
