REAL ESTATE ADVISOR
SCOTT’S MARKET PERSPECTIVE
“THIS IS LAND-FIRST BUYING: ACREAGE, PRIVACY, AND THE MOUNTAINS AT THE DOOR.”
JOE RICH is currently favouring buyers. With 17 active properties against 6 closed sales in the past 90 days, selection is substantial and pricing discipline matters. Recent sales have taken a median of 116 days and closed at 96.8% of asking, with buyers negotiating meaningfully below asking. 5 current listings have already had a price reduction, 29% of active inventory.
Out here the land drives the price far more than the house does. Acreage, zoning and ALR status, water and services, access, and where you can build can separate two parcels that look alike on paper, so pricing has to start with the land itself.
