We’re seeing the same type of trend here in our luxury ski area. Still a lot of great deals on the market but trending upwards at a healthy rate.
Those areas that have intrinsic value and are in a gighly desirable area continue to do well. Other areas in the country are still struggling in the higher end of the market.
Great points – of course the takeaway is that all markets are different. Thanks for checking in on Matrix.
