Tim’s notes: This property has basically been for sale since Sept 2008…Aggressive, unrealistic pricing in the fall 2008 meant the property would follow the market down…never jumping ahead to attempt a pre-emptive lower sale price. Of course easy to say in hindsight. At the time, prices were dropping so fast, no one had a real sense of what things were worth in late 2008-2011. This should be used as an example of what happens when a seller initially prices too aggressively, then lowers their price too incrementally as opposed to boldy, at the sign of a market turn. You’ve got to try to jump ahead of a rapidly changing market. Broker comments are “This beautifully remodeled three bedroom unit has been cared for and enjoyed by the owners for 35 years. Never been rented and it shows! With its high end finishes and decorator touches including rough edged double thickness granite countertops, charming kitchen painted cabinetry, stainless appliances and Kohler bath fixtures this one has it all. The kitchen island and large dining table welcomes large family and friends gatherings. Premiere rated for future rental income. Rental pro forma available. Winter views of the ski slope and a close walk to the Snowmass Mall in the summer. Top of the Village is one of the most desirable condo developments in Snowmass for its ski in/out access and excellent property and rental management.” 2018 taxes: $4,148; HOA Dues: $14,771.
