Deal Making Alive in 2009

Good day from (very) snowy Crested Butte,

2009 has begun with new deal making and some incredible opportunities to purchase premier Crested Butte real estate at seriously discounted prices. Buyers are enjoying strong inventories and competitive price reductions across all categories. The lower end of the market has come alive and we have 14 properties currently under contract including 9 townhomes and condos and 2 single family homes.  Buyers are also taking advantage of the cheap money offered by lenders for residential purchases. Borrowers are realizing sub-6% and in some cases sub-5% rates on 30-year fixed residential loans.
