It wasn’t so long ago when there were many properties available to buy with over 100 acres near Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Today there are 6 ranch listings, and 5 out of 6 are priced over $10M. 

Steamboat Springs Colorado horse and ranch real estate

Real estate ready for horses is even slimmer pickings, no matter the acreage. A stunning property located 13 miles north of Steamboat on the way to Steamboat Lake and other awesome recreational paradises in northwestern Colorado, features brand new horse facilities. This beautiful 5 bedroom, 5-1/2 bath home has an attached single car and detached 3 car garage plus 1 bedroom caretaker home.

North Routt county is popular for all types of recreation including hunting, fishing, back country skiing, snowmobiling, and many spectacular hikes and secret waterfalls that locals prefer to keep secret.

If a multiple million dollar ranch isn’t in your budget, there are many opportunities for affordable land and homes. Some land prices are well below prices paid over 13 years ago and home prices well below today’s building costs. Contact me for more details.

Where are all these Steamboat home buyers coming from?

Recent showings of my equestrian - recreational property on the road to Steamboat Lake were younger families from southern states. They tend to have middle school - high school aged kids and are looking for a place to play outdoors with access to public lands, privacy from neighbors, and the possibility of moving here permanently. You can take a virtual tour of Phantom Springs Ranch here.

With Increased Demand Comes Increased Home Values

In 26 years of real estate I didn’t do many sales in excess of $1M. In the past 60 days from this post date, there have been a total of 32 pending and closed sales for single homes over $2M. The average price of a home in Steamboat Springs is now $1.4M up 18% since this time last year, here are the home sales in the past 30 days. Low inventory, cost of land, high construction cost and high demand since COVID-19 continues to drive up prices.

During October, residential properties in Steamboat Springs went under contract in 15 days on average.

Lets Break another Record

My actual wish is to see a record year of snow, this last couple months of home sales is concerning because its not always a good thing to grow too fast, but always a good thing to see abundant powder. See Steamboat’s snow alarm.

Lending available for Steamboat condos but you have to play by the rules.

Saturday, August 7, 2010

A mortgage company that is in the process of bankruptcy can’t find a buyer for the condo they foreclosed on, because lenders don’t want to give Mr. buyer a loani! True story! Buyer has excellent credit, 20% down and looking to purchase [tag]real estate[/tag] at 50% discount off of previous sales (should be low risk) The reason Mr. Lender can’t finance the property is because while searching for vacation property on the web, the property in question shows up from the search. Vacation property = investment property in their eyes most of the time. You may be legitimately purchasing the property for a 2nd home in Steamboat, with no intentions of renting; however, the banks are calling it an investment condo and its tough to get financed. TARP to the rescue does not apply here; but…wait! “Another important goal of TARP is to encourage banks to resume lending again at levels seen before the crisis.” http://en.wikipedia. … lief_Program#Purpose Don’t get discouraged; there maybe a solution as long as you have 25% down, investor concentration ideally isn’t over 30% or was that 10% (this changes depending on who you talk to), and you don’t have more than 4 mortgages already. Its not so easy though. The HOA (Home Owner Association) can’t be in the red, one owner can’t own more than 10% of the inventory and so on… Financing [tag]condos[/tag] in [tag]Steamboat[/tag] is common, but it’s best if n we do some homework before venturing out to look for deals. There are several condo complexes that should finance conventionally, because they fit the lender rules. 3 examples are [tag]Walton Creek Condos[/tag] (2 bedroom plus huge loft for 3rd bedroom, views of the ski resort http://www.steamboat … on_Creek_2_bed-loft/), [tag]The Timbers[/tag] (Colorado lodge with views of [tag]Catamount[/tag]http://www.steamboat … _Timbers_2_bed-loft/) or most [tag]townhomes[/tag] such as [tag]Columbine[/tag] - (3 bed, 3 full baths, 2 lofts, views of the valley and [tag]Rolling Stone Golf Course[/tag], 2043 sqft now just $399,000http://www.steamboat … _3_bed_plus_2_lofts/). Call Dean Laird 877-678-0884 direct or 970-846-8284 for more ideas for financing or any additional information on condos and homes in [tag]Steamboat Springs[/tag].
