With ski season pumping up, all of you buyers looking for Summit County vacation homes in Breckenridge or Keystone Colorado real estate can find a win/win opportunity to invest. Maybe even at a bit of a bargain. We have a nice selection of Breckenridge real estate on the market. The continuing low interest rates really are the icing on the cake.
And then, too, the ski resort communities such as Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper Mountain, and the surrounding towns of Frisco, Dillon, and Silverthorne benefit from having higher land values and, therefore, the new higher limits for government backed loans. So, first-time buyers are more readily able to get into a condominium for family vacation and others may find it a good time to land that retirement home in the Breckenridge area.
Before shopping, you’ll do well to go to a lender in Summit County to apply for mortgage approval. Our experienced real-estate agents are able to refer you to reputable companies and individuals. When you have a written loan approval for the amount that you want to spend on a property, then you have bargaining power. This paper will allow you to walk into the second home that is just right for your family and immediately take action. Make an offer.
Now, you may want to know that although we do have some bargain properties, the average deviation from actual listing price is only 3 percent. When you make an offer, be respectful of the owner’s selling price, which may already have been reduced. You probably won’t get very far if you offer 50 percent just because the home has been on the market for several months. Keep your maximum offer to yourself and make a reasonable offer for the property.
Your local real-estate agent is very familiar with the negation table and able to help you if the seller counters your offer. Your agent can guide you through possible conditions that may benefit your offer although it is best to keep the offer(s) uncomplicated and to minimize your demands on the seller. The agent can also find out if there are other offers competing with your offer.
