Summit County as a whole has been on the rise in local & national popularity for quite some time, but Silverthorne has really been taking leaps and bounds in development in recent years, and it’s all starting to come to fruition now! Let’s check out some of the new developments popping up.
Summit County is considered “Colorado’s Playground” for good reason. Boasting 300+ days of sunshine, there are endless chances to celebrate and enjoy the great outdoors. Here are just a few of our favorite things about our home town in the summertime….
Shoulder season, Mud season, Mayuary, 3rd Winter, or Spring. Call it what you will, but there is a distinct period of time in the high Rockies that just doesn’t fall in line with what the average person expects out of April & May. Having lived here for 35 years, we know to expect the unexpected, and this time of year has become one of the endearing aspects of life at elevation.
In the age of rising house prices and student debt, getting on the property ladder early in life can seem pretty impossible to young people. While buying a home is a huge step and can be a daunting process, this reality doesn’t have to be as out of reach as it might appear.
Home ownership is, simply put, part of the American Dream. The idea is that homeownership creates a path for building wealth over time, helping you to create financial stability. If you’re new to the game, or could use a refresher, we’re going to look at what this means exactly, and how it can enhance your net worth.
A happy side effect of the pandemic is that it has allowed us all to make lifestyle changes – many for the better – and to re-align our priorities to focus on what really matters. What really matters to us is this community, and helping people find the keys to their dream home, as we did 30 years ago here in Summit County, Colorado.
Whether you’re buying or selling, surely you’ve hit the MLS matrix and wondered, “Why on earth is that home priced like that?”, and whether that’s in a negative or positive light, there are several key factors that are taken into consideration when determining property prices.
We get it – you’re probably pretty tired of hearing COVID-related news by now. We’re not scientists, doctors or epidemiologists, so we’ve got no groundbreaking info to share in that realm…however, we ARE experts in real estate, and there are some half truths and outright falsehoods that might be filling your social media feeds, and we want to set those straight for you.
Fall is here! This is perhaps the most short-lived of all the seasons in the high rockies, but also one of the most beloved. For a window of time, the aspen groves and mountain foliage take on the most exquisite gold, orange and burgundy hues. Whether you are driving, biking, hiking, or lucky enough to see them from your mountain abode, this is a special time of year in Summit County.
Everyone loves a mountain town, and there are innumerable reasons to love Summit County. From the outdoor recreation opportunities to the community and the people who make up these special places, there is a quaint convenience about a mountain town. One of those conveniences is that it is always a beneficial investment to own property here.
