What Sold in Feb 2017?
- 40% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (lowest in 7 months)
- 60% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million
- 12% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (up from low last month)
- 40% :: Percentage of single family home sales (lowest in 5 months)
- 32% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (up from low last month)
- 28% :: Percentage of Land Sales (double last month)
What it means: After recording a low for entry level sales in January (only 1 sale under $500,000), February saw a slight uptick as 3 properties sold in this price range (or 12% of all sales). There were several sales in the $500,000 – $1,000,000 segment, including 5 condominiums located throughout the Valley (Aspens, Teton Village, Town of Jackson, Rafter J, and Spring Creek Ranch). The least expensive single family home sale was a 2 bed / 2 bath home near the top of the Indian Paintbrush subdivision which sold for just over $750,000 after 7 months on the market. Also in this price range was a bank sale north of town, a rarity in our post recovery market. It was an 2,300 sq foot home with a good amount of deferred maintenance, but with Teton views on a 3.23 acre lot. It sold for just over $800,000. Given the activity in the sub $1 million market, sales over the million marked dropped to 40% in February, after hovering around 45-48% for the last several months. That being said there were still several sales above $3 million including homes in Teton Pines, Shooting Star, Skyline Ranch and John Dodge. The breakdown of sales among property type saw quite the mix-up in February, with a large drop in single family home sales (down 30% from January) and large increases in both condo sales (up 15%) and surprisingly, building sites (nearly double from January). With low inventory levels for existing homes, many buyers are shifting their focus to land as they try to build what is lacking in the market. In February, we saw land sales in the Gill Addition in Town, Indian Trails, Gros Ventre North and Shooting Star.

Entry level sales reach new low, with only 1 sale under $500,000 in January
The Colbert Real Estate Report
Monthly Market Update for Feb 2017
Jackson Hole, WY
What Sold in Jan 2017?
- 48% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for over $1 million (uptick from past months)
- 52% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $1 million
- 4% :: Percentage of residential properties selling for under $500,000 (lowest in 3+ years)
- 70% :: Percentage of single family home sales (spike from last month)
- 17% :: Percentage of condo/townhome sales (large drop from last month)
- 13% :: Percentage of Land Sales (uptick but still low)
What it means: After a December where nearly 25% of property sales occurred in the entry level market, the month of January saw only 1 sale under $500,000. This represented only 4% of all property sales in January, by far the lowest percentage since I began keeping stats 3+ years ago, and only the second time this stat has dropped below 10% in that time frame. The lone sale in this price range was for a 1 bedroom condo hotel at Snake River Lodge & Spa, located in Teton Village at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. The next least expensive property was a 2 bed / 2 bath townhome in West Jackson, which sold for $520,000. In looking over the past 3 years the trend is clear (see chart below): sales in the “entry level” price point have been steadily declining over the past several years. After several months of consistency, property sales over $1 million increased in January, with nearly 1 out of every 2 sales occurring in this price range. Along with the $50 million sale (see Summary above), 4 properties sold for north of $2 million this month, including a large home in Indian Paintbrush, a house up at Spring Creek Ranch and a 4.75 acre parcel on the Snake River in Wilson, which sold for full list price after 6 months on the market. After a low point last month, single family home sales spiked in January, representing 70% of all sales! (While it’s important to note that a smaller sample size (i.e. only 23 sales) can affect the stats, it’s still a significant data point.) The least expensive single family home sale was for a 3 bed / 2 bath home in Cottonwood Park, which sold quickly at $670,000. Condo sales dropped off substantially, as there were only 4 condo/townhome sales in January. Three of these 4 condo sales occurred in the sub $600,000 price point, while the other sale represented a 3 bedroom condo in Love Ridge, located at the base of Snow King Mountain, which sold for $1.25 million. Land sales picked up slightly after a slow December, but still remained sluggish, recording only 3 sales in January and including a 25 acre parcel on Saddle Butte in the Town of Jackson.
