Douglas County Luxury Home Sales Report

Oct 26th 11

filed under: Real Estate Stats

Luxury home sales in Douglas County Colorado on the rise.

Luxury buyers want to know if it’s safe to jump in the market and buy properties over the $1 Million price point.  The answer is easy. Yes, luxury homes over $1,000,000 are moving and yes there are fantastic deals out there.

Luxury Home in Douglas County Colorado

Luxury Home in Douglas County Colorado

Earlier this year I was able to get an offer accepted for one of my high-end buyers that made us all excited.  We negotiated $300,000 off the asking price. My buyer was thrilled.

Here are the numbers below to show you what I’m talking about. Douglas County luxury real estate prices have come down and there is plenty of really good inventory to look at.

This is a year over year comparison of Luxury Home Sales from the same time periods of January 1st to October 26th 2010 versus 2011.

Find Out What your Luxury Home is Worth Here.

  • Total above $1 Million sales in Douglas County for 2010 = 89 versus 2011 = 71 for the same time period.
  • Average Days on Market 2010 = 89 versus 2011 = 71
  • Average Original Listing Price 2010 = $1,851,523 versus 2011 = $1,757,626  ( -$93,897)
  • Average NET Sales Price 2010 = $1,480,895 versus 2011 = $1,451,912  ( -$28,983)
  • Difference between original asking price and final sales price 2010 = 79.98% versus 2011 = 82.61%
  • Average Price Per SQFT – 2010 = $344 versus 2011 = $324  ( $20 per sqft less)
  • Highest NET Sale s Price for Douglas County 2010 = $3.630,000 versus 2011 = $3,150,000

The lower number of sales may reflect the crazy stock market ride we have had this summer. I’m sure luxury home buyers in Douglas County Colorado were stalled from making decisions during the major market shifts of the summer.

The original asking price versus final sales price shows us sellers are slightly  learning that their homes are not quite work what they are hoping for or at least buyers don’t view them as being worth what the sellers are asking.

The $20 per sqft drop is a pretty good indication that the market has softened even more. I think that’s a pretty good indicator of continued softening.

Pradera Golf Club 4 Years of Home Sale Trends

Jan 27th 11

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.

Total Sales by Year: (2008 was hot then the breaks were applied by the banks.)

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.

Total Volume of NET Sales By Year in Pradera Golf Club:

2007 = $13,025,000

2008 = $20,993,608

2009 = $10,731,943

2010 = $8,668,800

Average NET $ or Price per sqft Sold: (This is the sqft on the main level and upper level. It does not include the basement.)

2007 = $286

2008 = $314

2009 = $253

2010 = $276

Average Price per sqft Finished. (All finished sqft included.)

2007 = $224

2008 = $207

2009 = $172

2010 = $162

Video helps sell Million Dollar home in Pradera Golf Club

Apr 22nd 10

filed under: Pradera, Real Estate Answers, Videos

YouTube Preview Image

“I listed this home for sale at $1,200,000 in the Pradera Golf Course and sold it in 8 days with the power of video!”

When you NEED maximum exposure for your property and it’s time to sell call me and I’ll be happy to show you how we syndicate your home across the NET. Steven Beam uses the power of video to help get the job done.

Video accomplishes several things for a home sale.

  1. It will expose your hoe to literally thousands of byers looking on the web for homes. Video give buyers a much better depth perception of room sizes and dimensions than a photo or those outdated BUBBLE EYED virtual tours.
  2. It gets buyers into the house that may not normally have been able to find the home. Video is search able and can be found on the web. Don’t believe me? Google this address (4981 raintree circle) How many times is it on the first page of google? A LOT!
  3. Video keeps buyers out of the house too. If they don’t like what they see in the video they can cross it off their list and it keeps unwanted showings out of your home.

Newlin Meadows is starting to grow wings. Being such a new neighborhood in Parker, Colorado it has taken a few years for resale homes to gain ground and finally start to show turnover. Year over year 2009 posted nearly double the sales compared to 2008.

Pradera Golf Club 2009 Year End Real Estate Market Report

Jan 5th 10

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

Here it is. The 2009 real estate market report for The Pradera Golf Club.

Please make sure to see the FULL spreadsheet here of the sales and numbers.

If you consider the pre and post election depression the entire country was in last year and early in 2009 I think the Pradera real estate market did really well. Basically nothing much was selling just after the elections and it took a few months for everyone to cool down before they started re-entering the real estate market. That being said you should take note that while the main market which is homes under the $700,000 level sold really well while the homes priced $800,000 and up fared far worse than the year prior or any previous years. With only 6 homes selling in 2009 with a NET proceeds to the seller of over $900,000 it was a tough year for the higher end homes. However if you look at the sale dates you will quickly notice that  there were three $1 Million + sales in the last 4 months of the year and two $900,000+ sales in May and June. We all know summer is busier but I’ve also always stated that Fall and early Winter are great times to sell.
