Homes Sales in The Pinery. Parker Colorado

filed under: Real Estate Stats, The Timbers

The Pinery Home Sales Report

The Pinery Home Sales Report


In this report you will see all the home sales in the Pinery Neighborhood from 2007 to the end of 2010. All price ranges. The report shows only home sales EAST of Parker road and does not include home sales in the newer Pinery Glenn neighborhood.

After writing an article detailing home sale trends over the past 4 years in Stonegate, and Pradera Golf Club other Parker, Colorado communities, I decided to produce the same stats for The Timbers & The Pinery.

Video Helps Sell Your Home

The Pinery is consistently one of the top selling neighborhoods in Parker, Colorado. We have to believe that the location, beautiful rolling hills, wildlife and of course the pine forests that blanket the entire neighborhood are the reasons. There are homes available for every buyer in every price range in The Pinery and that makes it very appealing.

My report below for all the home sales in The Pinery is only covering single family homes. Not the condos and town homes or any other attached homes in The Pinery.

FYI-Lenders are calling me all the time to make sure I understand that money is now available for high-end luxury home buyers where it was unavailable just 18 to 24 months ago.

The Timbers Luxury Home Sales Report.

Luxury Homes in The Timbers

Luxury Homes in The Timbers

This report shows you what has sold and closed in The Timbers over the past 4 years. Only closed sales over $750,000.

Last week at the end of February one of my buyers offered on and reached an agreement for a $1.225 million listing over in Pradera. So yes I believe the luxury home market in Parker is slowly coming to life after a lag in 2009.

Steve’s definition of high-end = anyone buying or selling above $750,000.

After writing an article detailing home sale trends over the past 4 years in Stonegate, and Pradera Golf Club other Parker, Colorado communities, I decided to produce the same stats for The Timbers.

Here is a recent article about The Timbers.

Since the end of 2009 there is a new demand for high-end luxury homes all around the Denver Metro. Douglas County and The Timbers have also seen a slight rebound and more activity in the luxury home market. We are not back to the levels we were experiencing in 2007 & 2008 but the year end stats for 2010 was only 7 home sales short of our high in 2007.

Lenders are calling me all the time to make sure I understand that money is now available for high-end luxury home buyers where it was unavailable just 18 to 24 months ago.

Luxury Custom Home Buyers Love The Timbers in Parker CO.

Mar 1st 11

filed under: The Timbers

Beautiful Custom home in The Timbers

Beautiful Custom home in The Timbers

At some point in our lives most of us consider or at least dream of owning or building a custom home. I know I have. In Parker Colorado we have the top selling custom home community in the entire Denver Metro area. The Timbers. The Timbers is located in the The Pinery which is a 27 hole golf community in South Parker Colorado. Usually once I bring a home buyer into the The Timbers the neighborhood sells it’s self.

The Timbers Custom homes in Parker Colorado

Beautiful rolling hills, wildlife, views of the Denver, Colorado Front Range and a forest of Ponderosa Pines draw people from the typical suburbs to The Pinery and The Timbers. The Timbers is typically custom and semi-custom homes priced from the $600,000’s up. Most of the full custom homes are selling from the $700’s to $1.2 Million range with others well above the $2 million mark.

Yes there are still lots available for purchase so you can dirt start your dream home. With several great custom home builders to choose from you should be able to have your choice of design and builder. I know for a fact that there are still several very good view lots available too.

People always ask why move into The Timbers versus Pradera Golf Club. I can only say it’s personal preference. The Timbers does have direct views onto the mountains and Front Range and I believe many relocation buyers transferred in to our area really want to get the full Colorado experience and must have the big mountain views. Why not.

The day I wrote this (March 2011) you still have the ability to join both the Pinery Golf Club and The Club at Pradera. Memberships are still available and most of my golf enthusiast clients do end up joining both clubs. Hey why not have access to the new clubhouses at both courses and the ability to play 45 holes of beautifully designed golf course. Count me in.

The Pinery & Timbers Homeowners Association is rock solid too. Expect to pay about $200 a year for HOA fees and yes I did mean per year not per month.

The taxes in The Timbers are also a blessing. The Timbers taxes are about %40 to 50% less than Pradera. Unfortunately Pradera is paying off bonds associated with the building of the neighborhood.

Basically with prices depressed from the real estate market downturn and interest rates down coupled with the fact that lenders are NOW lending money to high end luxury home buyers I would say that it is a super time to check out that luxury custom home you have been dreaming about.

I ran the numbers for The Pradera Golf Club and over the past 4 years prices on luxury homes over $750,000 are down $12.83% from their high in 2006/2007. I will soon post the figures for the 4 year sales stats for The Timbers but you will need to check back for that information or call me (Steven Beam 303-941-4663)  for an email copy. I will post it soon.

If you are considering selling your home I would love the opportunity to earn your business. Here is a preview of a recent sale and a testimonial from a recent luxury home seller.

Pradera Golf Club 4 Years of Home Sale Trends

filed under: Pradera, Real Estate Answers, Real Estate Stats, The Timbers

Pradera Golf Club Custom Home

Pradera Golf Club Custom Home

Notice the reflection of the clouds in this custom home perched high on the hill in Pradera Golf Club.

Average Sale Price Down 12.83% in Pradera from it’s high in 2008. See data below.

After writing an article detailing home sale trends over the past 4 years in Stonegate, another Parker, Colorado community, I was asked to produce the same stats for Pradera Golf Club.

Over the past 12 months I have witnessed a new found demand for high end luxury homes in Douglas County including the custom home communities of Pradera and The Timbers. We all noticed the demand slow down for about a 12 month period in late 2008 and early 2009 simply because banks would not lend money to high-end luxury home buyers.

Well the lenders are back and so is the pent up demand from custom home buyers. Currently a majority of the home sellers and buyers I’m working with are in what I consider to be the high-end market. Steve’s definition of high-end = anyone buying or selling above $750,000.

What do you get when you list your home for sale with Steven Beam? See it here.

Here are the numbers for Home Sales in Pradera that have a sold closing price ABOVE $750,000 since 2007.

2007 = 12

2008 = 19

2009 = 11

2010 = 9

Average Total Days on Market: (Like I said 2008 was HOT for custom home buyers)

2007 = 225

2008 =125

2009 = 216

2010 =207

Average NET Sold Price: (12.83% decrease in Value from high to low year.)

2007 = $1,085,417

2008 = $1,104,927

2009 = $975,631

2010 = $963,200

Remember I am only showing stats from homes that sold and closed at or above the $750,000 price point in Pradera Golf Club.

Should I Short Sale My Parker, CO Home Before Foreclosure?

Oct 13th 10

filed under: Castle Rock Homes, Colorado Short Sales, Highlands Ranch Homes, Homes for Sale, Lone Tree Colorado Homes, Real Estate Answers, Stonegate, The Timbers

Parker Colorado Home Values

Parker Colorado Home Values


“Will a short sale help me sell

my Parker Colorado home?”

In today’s changing and declining real estate market it is becoming increasingly more difficult for many homeowners to sell their homes and fully satisfy the mortgages on the property as well as pay all the closing cost related to the sale.

Email Lou for quick answers to your short sale questions.

More and more Parker, Colorado homeowners are looking to short sales to enable them to sell their properties. Not everyone can qualify for a short sale on their property. The lender typically is not willing to provide a discount on a performing mortgage with a strong borrower. Certain conditions must be met before a lender will qualify a borrower for a short sale.

Here are the general conditions for a short sale qualification:

• You must provide proof that you are experiencing a hardship through such things as unemployment, marital problems or medical issues.

• You must show that the value of your property has fallen so the lender can justify the sale of the property at the present market value.

• You must provide evidence that you are behind or about to fall behind in your mortgage payments.

• You must not have substantial assets that the lender can view as a resource to pay your ongoing mortgage obligation.

• You must have a qualified buyer to purchase the property. Your Realtor can provide a buyer from their listing and marketing of the property. This typically is not a problem.

• The lender must agree to the short sale.

By pricing the property in relation to a negotiated short sale discount the homeowner is able to attract qualified buyers who are looking for a competitive price on their new home or investment. With the multitude of short sale and bank owned properties currently listed for sale a short sale discount may be the best avenue for a homeowner to market and sell their home.

Short sales are a specialized form of real estate transaction. A homeowner should work with an experienced and qualified Realtor who specializes in this type of transaction. Your Realtor and their staff will insure that all of the elements of this transaction will take place properly.

Parker Colorado Short Sales – Beware of Scams

Oct 12th 10

filed under: Colorado Short Sales, Homes for Sale, The Timbers

Short Sale Scams Beware.

Short Sale Scams Beware.

Beware of scammers when you list

your next Parker Colorado Short Sale

Before you get ready to list for sale or buy your next Parker Colorado short sale please read this.

As with all crises, there creates a money making opportunity for the scam artists of the world. The vulnerability of homeowners facing one of the most stressful situations in their lifetime brings out the worst of the worst in people. In the case of financial hardship and rescue schemes it has come to bear that these individuals and companies have shown their ugly heads yet once again.

We see them on late night TV and their offers pop up while doing internet searches. These are individuals or out of state companies offering unrealistic solutions to “stop foreclosure Now” or to “buy your home in two weeks or less”.

Many homeowners today who are facing a financial hardship and are facing the likelihood of losing their homes to foreclosure are reaching out in desperation to whomever and whatever opportunity presents itself in an effort to remain in their home and continue to keep their family in a stable environment.

Your lender now has many tools to assist you through a multitude of federal programs available to them today. Whether you are looking to negotiate a loan modification or another type of work-out such as a short sale or forbearance, contact a professional local Realtor who is knowledgeable and specializes in these types of work outs. They are the folks who understand all the options you have today and there will never be a front end fee, never. Discuss your personal situation with these local professionals and get the facts before committing your time and financial resources to someone requesting money up front and making promises which sound too good to be true.
