The Estin Report: June 2017 Aspen Real Estate Monthly Snapshot was posted in Current Reports on Mon. July 10th. The Snapshots are usually posted on or near the 1st Monday of the month. 

Excerpt:
“June 2017 has been the best June for Aspen real estate in the past 10 years. Dollar sales for properties selling over $10M are up over 125% year-to-date (YTD) and for all properties, sales are up 118% YTD. At the same time, inventory of available properties for sale is declining, down 30% in June ’17 year over year, which should create upward pressure on prices…”

The Estin Report: Mid-Year 2017: State of Aspen Real Estate was released in June 2017 in Current Reports. The 32-Page report is available on-line as PDF and available in print in kiosks at the airport, the info booth across from Paradise Bakery town and at Sothebys offices at 415 E Hyman in the Mall and 300 S Spring opposite the Art Museum.
