Comprehensive Real Estate Market Analysis
Q1 2017 Market Report April 1, 2017
The winter season delivered with lots of snow and news of Vail Resorts acquiring Stowe Mountain Resort. However, the lead story in real estate continues to be low inventory; the lowest we’ve seen in many years. Ultimately, this has had the greatest impact on market conditions. Home sales in Stowe, and the rest of Lamoille County, were down for the first quarter as compared to Q1 of 2016. On the other hand, Stowe condominium sales were up significantly, many of which are located near the mountain. The obvious assumption is that this segment of the market was influenced by the Vail Resorts acquisition.
National reports show consumer confidence is extremely high, with many feeling this is a good time to purchase real estate. Locally, average and median prices were both up, 10% and 11% respectively over last year. However, for sales to increase inventory will need to be added to the market.

The majority of Q1 residential home sales were under $500,000. That percentage increased from 52% last year to 73% this year, a total of 8 homes sold. We are seeing very few sales in the above $500,000.
There were only 2 homes that sold over $1 million. The 9% reflected in the over $1.5 million segment represents one sale. This home sold for $2,525,000, 24% below the listed price.
Currently 11 homes are pending, with list prices ranging from $229,900 to $1,250,000.
STOWE RESIDENTIAL SALESQ1 2017 Market Report April 1, 2017
In 2016 we reported that Q1 residential sales in Stowe had rebounded to the high previously seen in 2014, representing a total of 23 home sales. This year we are seeing a significant decline to only 11 sales. We believe this is due to the lack of inventory.
2017 1ST QUARTER SHOWS A TOTAL OF 11 SALES, WHICH IS A DECREASE OF 52%.

56% increase in sales, combined with a 15% decrease in inventory, reduces the months of supply from 22 months in 2016 to 12 in 2017.
Since 2012 Stowe has typically seen a rise in condominium sales during the 1st quarter. The exception being last year at this time. During Q1, after the Vail acquisition was announced, we saw a number of multiple offer situations on high-end Mountain Road condos and others centered around the Toll House area.
Condominium average and median sales prices are affordable for many. For the 1st quarter of 2017 they are both around $230k. Again, many of these were located on the Mountain Road corridor, and near Stowe Mountain Resort.
The Stowe condo inventory mimicked the residential market with a 15% decrease. However the two differ when it comes to sales prices, the highest sales price for a condominium in Q1 was $320,000.
56% JUMP IN CONDO SALES LIKELY DUE TO VAIL PURCHASE OF STOWE.

STOWE LAND Q1
Only one land sale recorded in the MLS for the 1st Qtr of 2017. An increase in inventory and only one sale creates 147 months of supply.
Buyers are finding it still more advantageous to invest in pre-existing homes and condominiums, rather than building. That may very well be reflected in the number of sales dropping from a total of 5 last year in the 1st
quarter, to 1 this year. As we move through the spring and summer, that could very well change. There are currently 6 parcels of land pending.
LAND IS DOWN IN EVERY CATEGORY EXCEPT INVENTORY, WHICH IS UP 9%.

*Above stats are for Lamoille County excluding Stowe.
41 HOMES CURRENTLY UNDER CONTRACT IN LAMOILLE.
In the rest of Lamoille County, a lack of inventory is a similar theme, even though the drop of 7% was much less than in Stowe. Overall there is much more inventory available to choose from north of Stowe, causing some buyers to expand their search into this area.
Home sales were down slightly as well; but similar to Stowe, the median price was up 11%. The average on the other hand was up 45%, due to 2 high priced sales, one selling for $820,000 in Hyde Park, and one for $1,550,000 in Morristown. Most of the other sales were under $500,000. There are currently 41 homes pending, ranging up to $700,000.
As for land parcels, sales were up by 11%, with inventory dropping 12%. This is 9 more land sales than Stowe had, likely due to the fact that the median price is much lower in the rest of the Lamoille County towns. The median and average prices did increase though, by as much as 27% and 30% respectively. There are currently 20 land parcels pending, north of Stowe.
