MARKET HIGHLIGHTS The first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarters of 2014-2016 was up 18%, but down 21% compared to 2017 – an anomaly. $110.3M in contracts closed in the first quarter with the number of transactions down 27%. Local influences on slowed sales include lack of snow this ski season and tightened inventory levels. On a national level, buyers pulled the trigger at the end of 2017, which the Telluride real estate market saw, but showed hesitation in the new year while trying to understand how the new tax laws will impact them. Despite a slight dip in sales in the first quarter, we are not too troubled as December 2017 was a significant month for closings before the new year. Additionally, January 2017 was one of the largest months in sales on record for comparison. So, 2018 out-performed the prior 6 years with the exception of 2017. One quarter “does not a market make” in a smaller boutique marketplace and with over $120M in contracted sales, we look forward to a strong second quarter. Town of Telluride sales were just $2.5M short of Q1 ‘17 at $37.3M. The number of sales were down 14% signaling buyers are willing to pay higher dollar for the conveniences properties in town offer. This is particularly evident in single family home sales with the number of sales down 50% but down only 14% in dollar volume. Notably, land parcel sales were strong this past quarter whereas Q1 ’17 was flat. As inventory in town is absorbed, buyers are willing to buy land to build what they want. In Mountain Village, high-end luxury homes continue to trade hands. The first quarter saw two sales over $4M followed by ten sales $2-4M. Top-tier land parcels continue to sell as discerning buyers value ski access, views, and building envelope offerings. While condo/townhome sales are slightly down, they remain an attractive purchase with proximity to the ski resort and rental income potential. The remainder of the county saw a slowdown in sales. While single family home sales are down, land sales continue to hold steady. The Aldosoro neighborhood which offers open space, privacy, views and proximity to town had a notable five land parcels sales.
