Gil Fancher for all your Vail real estate needs

The bidding is on for two fabulous pieces of Vail Luxury real estate located on Beaver Dam Road.  Opening bids for these two Vail homes start at $1,100 per square foot, offering exceptional value in one of Vail’s most desirable neighborhoods.

One local Vail REALTOR® is quoted as saying: “The area around Forest Road and Beaver Dam Road is so sought-after that it’s not unusual for homes to sell into the $1,900 range per square foot. The fact that 184 and 194 Beaver Dam Road have starting bids around only $1,100 per square foot makes this very enticing, especially considering they are new-construction. Most of the surrounding homes are older – large and luxurious, but old. These properties offer the low maintenance and amenities of a new home while still in walking distance to shopping and skiing.”

Vail real estate is not so different from the rest of the nation where high end real estate is pulling in the wealthy, otherwise known as the people who have the money to buy expensive properties at hugely discounted prices. While the recessional economy has taken its toll on many, there are people who survived with plenty of cash still left in their bank accounts, as well as those who have made a great deal of money from these tough times.

The recession proved to be a great platform for investors who had money to invest, and now that there is a light at the end of the tunnel these investors see great opportunity in buying Vail luxury real estate at a tremendous savings.

Sales of Vail homes valued at less than a million dollars fell in 2010, whereas sales for homes valued at over a million dollars increased quite a bit. The increase in expensive real estate is not a surprise, especially considering that the high end market is where the savings are greatest and where people who have money can make the most of their money.

It is an ideal time for the wealthy to buy Vail real estate, after all money is cheap to borrow, home values are down, and inventory is high. Those who have money have followed the savvy rules of investment that have withstood the test of time, buying low and selling high. The increase in sales volume for high end homes could lead one to believe that now is indeed the time to buy.
