Monthly Market Update for July 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What Sold in June 2016?

  • 55% :: Percentage of single family home sales (back up after low last month)
  • 38% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (down after high last month)
  • 7% :: Percentage of Land Sales (down for second month in a row)
  • 45% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (up again from last month)
  • 55% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million (down again from last month)
  • 16% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (half of last month)

What it means:  Single family homes sales are back up after a slow May, representing over half of all property sales in June.  Condos and townhome sales dipped after a strong showing in May.  Land sales declined again last month (only 4 sales in June), as many buyers focus their attention on the influx of existing homes and townhomes that have come onto the market in the last few months.  Entry level sales took a dip after a strong May, with only 15% of all sales occurring under $500,000 in June. The “hot spot” in June was the $500,000 – $1,000,000 price range, representing 36% of all sales last month. Sales in this segment included several vacation condos in The Aspens and Teton Village and several single family homes in Rafter J and Cottonwood Park, which are popular with local buyers. Property sales over $1 million increased for a second month in a row, accounting for 45% of all sales. High end property sales (defined as sales over $3 million) slowed in June as only 4 sales occurred in this price range (7% of all sales). Three of these high end sales were in Granite Ridge – 2 cabins (pictured below) and the last remaining undeveloped slopeside lot in the development.

Monthly Market Update for July 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What’s new in June 2016? (New Listing Analysis)

  • 90 :: Total number of new listings in June
    • Total New Listing Volume: $240,700,000
    • Average List Price: $2,675,000
  • 69 new residential properties (single family, condo, townhome)
    • Average List Price: $2,690,000
    • New listings already under contract or sold: 16
  • 21 new building sites
    • Average List Price: $2,620,000
    • New listings already under contract or sold: 2

What it means: New inventory continues to hit the market, with 90 new listings coming online in June. Joined with last month, we’ve seen 200 new properties enter the Jackson Hole real estate market so far this summer. While the number of new listings in June is down slightly from May, the volume of new listings actually increased. As a result, the average sales price of June listings was close to $2.7 million. There were two very high end new listings that no doubt affected these statistics: an 11,000 sq foot home on 40 acres north of Town was listed for $28 million (pictured below) and a 264 acre property (including modern home, guest house, barn, etc.) with frontage on both Fish Creek and the Snake River was listed for $53 million! However, even without these two listings, the average sales price of June’s new inventory was over $1.8 million, continuing an increasing trend seen over the last few months (see chart below).  The average listing price of new lot listings was also above $2.6 million and included two large parcels in Bar-B-Bar (located along the Snake River north of Town), listed for $12 million and $15.5 million, respectively. Several single family homes hit the market in the $600,000 – $800,000 price range. These homes in Cottonwood Park, Rafter J, the Town of Jackson, Red Top Meadows and Hoback Junction represent the least expensive single family home options in Teton County.  Many buyers are moving quickly, as 20% of June’s new listings are already sold or have sales pending (by July 10th).   

Notable new listings in June include:

  • 2 bedroom / 1 bath single family home in West Jackson – $599,000
  • Log Cabin with large shop/garage in Hoback – $635,000
  • Modern 2 bdrm condo in Pearl @ Jackson in downtown – $1,150,000
  • Four lots bordering Elk Refuge in Gill Addition (with older home) – $6,000,000

Jackson Hole Real Estate activity explodes in June, reaching levels not seen in nearly 3 years

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for July 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

Summary – June 2016:

  • 58 :: Total residential sale transactions (highest in nearly 3 years!)
  • $77,934,000 :: Total residential sales volume (highest in 2016)
  • $1,345,000::  Average sales price of reported and unreported sales (another increase)
  • 96% ::  Ratio of sales price to list price (typical level)
  • 173 ::  Average days on market prior to selling (remains low)

What it means:  The Jackson Hole real estate market is on fire! There were nearly 60 sale transactions in June, the highest level of monthly transactions since August 2013. Sales Volume also spiked in June, marking the highest monthly volume seen since last October 2015. While May 2016 statistics lagged 2015 (see June’s Market Report), the activity level in June 2016 leaves no doubt that the busy summer selling season is in full swing!  The average sales price increased again in June, but still remains below the highs seen in the past year (see chart below).  The sale price to list price ratio has returned to stable levels at 96%, meaning, on average buyers are purchasing at a 4% discount to the listing price. That being said, 11 properties sold at, near or above the listing price in June, including an older cabin and guest house on 1.5 acres off the Village Road, which sold for $25,000 OVER the listing price.  The average number of days on market remained at 173, the lowest level seen since last September. Well priced properties continue to sell quickly, as 24 properties (41% of all sales!) sold within 90 days of listing. Again this month, there were also several properties that sold BEFORE even hitting the market or being entered into the Multiple List Service (MLS). (Note: If you are searching for a particular property type/price range, please contact me so that I can help identify additional properties for you that may not be officially listed in the MLS.)

Property sales under $500,000 increase for 2nd month in Jackson Hole

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for June 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What Sold in May 2016? 

  • 42% :: Percentage of single family home sales (significant drop from previous months)
  • 46% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (significant increase from previous months)
  • 12% :: Percentage of Land Sales (down slightly from April)
  • 36% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (up from low last month)
  • 64% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million (down from high last month)
  • 30% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (2nd large monthly increase)
  • 7 :: Commercial Transactions – 5 sales and 2 leases

What it means: After increasing for 3 straight months, single family homes sales declined in May, representing only 42% of all sales and marking the lowest percentage since Aug 2015. Three of these sales were multi-family properties (2 duplexes and 1 four-plex), illustrating investors’ interest in our strong rental market in Jackson Hole. On the other end, the percentage of condo and townhome sales nearly doubled from April to May and accounted for more sales than single family homes for the first time in several months (see chart below). There were 4 land sales in May including two 1.17 acre vacant lots in Shooting Star near Teton Village at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort which sold for $2.7 million each.  Entry level sales had another strong month, with 30% of all sales occurring under $500,000 in May, achieving a double digit increase for the second month in a row (see chart below). The majority of the 10 sales under $500,000 where condos in the Town of Jackson, including a 2 bed/2 bath townhome with a 1 car garage located in central Jackson, which sold in 79 days from listing. Property sales over $1 million rebounded slightly after accounting for only 25% of all sales last month. Property sales over $3 million also rebounded with 4 sales over $3 million including a newly built home on the Westbank, which had been on and off the market for nearly 3 years (pictured below).  The month of May also saw 4 larger commercial sales in Jackson, including the Wilson gas station, an in-town restaurant space and a re-development opportunity on Broadway (currently home to Ocean City).

Sale Transactions & Dollar Volume increase in May, but still lag 2015 summer sale statistics

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for June 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

Summary – May 2016:

  • 33 :: Total residential sale transactions (highest in past 6 months)
  • $38,200,000 :: Total residential sales volume (jump from last month)
  • $1,160,000::  Average sales price of reported and unreported sales (up after a low last month)
  • 96% ::  Ratio of sales price to list price (back up to typical level)
  • 173 ::  Average days on market prior to selling (lowest in 8 months)

What it means:  Both sale transactions and dollar volume jumped up in the month of May after a sluggish early spring. Dollar Volume increased 54% from April, while sale transactions in May were the highest in the past 6 months. This is great news as we enter the busy summer selling season, however these sale statistics are still lagging 2015 numbers. Compared to May 2015, both sales transactions AND dollar volume are down 42% (see chart below). It will be interesting to see if the entire summer selling season will lag 2015, or if we are simply off to a slower start this year.  The average sales price increased slightly in May, but still remains low, dipping below $1.2 million for only the 3rd time in the past 12 months.   The sale price to list price ratio stabilized at 96% after a low a few months ago. In May, 5 properties sold at or near the listing price, including two 3-bdrm condos in Hansen Meadows, selling at $410,000 and $440,000.  The average number of days a property sits on the market before selling dropped significantly in May, marking the lowest level seen since last September, as 11 properties (or 33% of all sales) sold within 90 days of listing. There were also several properties that sold BEFORE even hitting the market or being entered into the Multiple List Service (MLS). (Note: If you are searching for a particular property type/price range, please contact me so that I can help identify additional properties for you that may not be officially listed in the MLS.)

April sees spike in Property Sales under $1 million in Jackson Hole real estate market

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for May 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What Sold in Apr 2016? 

  • 58% :: Percentage of single family home sales (3rd monthly increase)
  • 25% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (drop from last several month)
  • 17% :: Percentage of Land Sales (uptick from March)
  • 25% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (lowest since Jan 2015)
  • 75% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million (highest since Jan 2015)
  • 20% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (rebound from low last month)

What it means: Single family home sales continued to increase for the 3rd month in a row, representing over 1/2 of all sales in Teton County. Condo and townhome sales took a dip after several strong months in 2016. Land Sales increased in April as we get closer to the construction season.  The month of April saw many sales in the lower price ranges, with 75% of all sales occurring under $1 million, a level we haven’t seen in 15 months. In particular, there were 6 single family homes sales under $700,000 in April, quite the surge considering there are only 5 single family homes currently for sale in this price range (3 of which are in Moran, WY).  Conversely, property sales over $1 million only accounted for 1/4 of all sales last month. There were only 2 sales over $3 million in April (and 0 sales over $4 million) – compare that to the last several months where we have seen 4-5 sales between $3-$10 million.  After a 3 year low last month, property sales under $500,000 recovered in April representing 20% of all sales and included condos in Town and Teton Village, a lot in Teton Pines and a bank owned property in Moran that had been on the market for over a year.

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for May 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What’s new in Apr 2016? (New Listing Analysis)

  • 54 :: Total number of new listings in April
    • Total New Listing Volume: $83,100,000
    • Average List Price: $1,540,000
  • 43 new residential properties (single family, condo, townhome)
    • Average List Price: $1,266,000
    • New listings already under contract or sold: 9
  • 11 new building sites
    • Average List Price: $2,600,000
    • New listings already under contract or sold: 0

What it means: New listing activity continued to increase as we approach the busy summer selling season. Fifty-four new properties (including both residential properties & building sites) hit the Teton County real estate market in April. After several months of lagging or matching the inventory levels seen in 2014 & 2015, April saw more new residential listings than in the previous years (see chart below). New listings in April continued to outpace sluggish sales levels, this time at a rate of 2.5 to 1. In April, there were 10 new condo/townhome listings under $750,000, lower than last month’s 17 new listings in this price range, but nonetheless adding much needed inventory to the entry level market. By March 10th, 4 of these new listings were already under contract, illustrating the continued high demand for properties in this price point. At the other end of the spectrum, 6 single family homes hit the market priced in excess of $2 million including homes in Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis, Teton Pines, Game Creek and an 8,300 sq foot home in Town overlooking the Elk Refuge (listed for $4.9m). The middle of the market saw quite a bit of new listing activity as 11 new single family home listings priced between $500,000 – $1,000,000 hit the market, including homes in Rafter J, Cottonwood Park, East Jackson, and a ranch style home on 5 acres south of Jackson (pictured below).  Nearly a dozen new lot listings were added to the inventory in April including 4 building sites in Saddle Butte, located just north of downtown, ranging from $788,000-$1,995,000.

Notable new listings in April include:

  • 3 bdrm condo at Snow King with short term rental income – $545,000

Dollar Volume down in 2016 as April records lowest level in 15 months

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for May 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

Summary – Apr 2016:

  • 24 :: Total residential sale transactions (similar to last month)
  • $24,700,000 :: Total residential sales volume (lowest in 2+ years)
  • $1,030,000::  Average sales price of reported and unreported sales (lowest in 9 months)
  • 96% ::  Ratio of sales price to list price (back up to typical level)
  • 210 ::  Average days on market prior to selling (similar to last month)

What it means:  Sale transactions in April were in line with March sales, which continued to lag 2015 transaction numbers. Total dollar volume dropped significantly last month, marking the lowest level since Jan 2014. Compared to last year, April’s dollar volume was less than half of what was sold in April 2015, a prevailing trend so far in 2016 (see chart below).  Given the low dollar volume, the average sales price in April also dropped as many properties sold in the lower price ranges (see What Sold below). The last time the average sales price was down near $1 million was back in July 2015.  The sale price to list price ratio rebounded from last month to more typical levels. In particular, 6 properties (or 25% of all sales) sold at or near the listing price in April, including a 3 bedroom updated Aspens condo, which sold quickly for the listing price of $990,000. The average days on market remained consistent as most properties, on average, sold in a little over 200 days of listing. In April, more than 40% of the sales occurred within 3 months of hitting the market, including a 3 bedroom townhome in E Jackson and a vacant lot in Teton Pines. This illustrates that well-priced properties in high demand market segments are selling quickly in the Jackson real estate market.

Sales under $500,000 reach new low; account for only 8% of all sales in March

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

The Colbert Real Estate Report

Monthly Market Update for April 2016

Jackson Hole, WY

What Sold in Mar 2016? 

  • 50% :: Percentage of single family home sales (another increase)
  • 37.5% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (similar to last month)
  • 12.5% :: Percentage of Land Sales (down from last February)
  • 58% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (huge jump from last month)
  • 46% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million (down from last month)
  • 8% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (lowest % in 3+ years!)

What it means: Single family home sales increased again in March, representing 1/2 of all sales in Teton County. Condo and townhome sales remained consistent after a surge in February. Land Sales dropped slightly in March, probably a result of low winter inventory levels. After starting the year out strong, property sales under $500,000 hit another new low, representing only 8% of all sales in March. This is the first time sales in this segment have dipped below 10% in the past 3 years (since the start of compiling statistics for this report in 2013). We should expect to continue to see a low number of sales in this price point until more entry level inventory hits the market. (Currently there are only 22 full ownership options available in Teton County priced under $500,000.) Conversely, sales above $1 million increased significantly in March, representing nearly 60% of all sales. There were several high end sales in March including a 6,300 sq foot home in Spring Creek Ranch, a Granite Ridge home site in Teton Village and the sale of a 105 acre portion of the large Vandewater Ranch located on the Village Road, which included 3 separately deeded parcels and had both Fish Creek and Flat Creek frontage (pictured below).
