MOTIVATED SELLERS

Tuesday, February 15, 2011

As the resorts that make up the Vail Valley head toward the last weeks ... usually the busiest weeks ... of the ski season, sellers are reducing prices to capture buyers before the ski mountain closes and things slow down.

I've did some research and selected a few properties that combine significant price reductions (to an attractive price per square foot) with a high number of "days on market" (DOM).  These are good properties forced to pay the price of bad economic times.

For you bargain-hunters, keep in mind I can easily shoot you an email with fact sheets, photos/virtual tours, price histories, site locations, etc.  Just email me at cmiskell@slifer.net with your request re price point, area, type of property, # bedrooms, etc.
