The selection of five bedroom homes currently on the market is about the same as it was for my last real estate market report. There are still different styles, sizes and floor plans to select from the limited inventory that is on the market. We never have a lot of five bedroom homes on the market at one time. They aren't that common in this are. This report will cover all of the five bedroom and larger homes on the market in the 81416 zip code. Here's a look at what is available: There are six active listings and none pending a sale. One of the listings has two homes that together have six bedrooms total. The list prices start at $132,000. This one is a bank owned property that needs some work. It's new on the market since my last report. The most expensive five bedroom home listed is ...

Overall the sale of bank owned/foreclosure homes makes up less than 10% of the Delta County sales market. It was just several years when this was a foreclosure driven market, and thankfully that's no longer the case. We will always see a few of these properties on the market. They can be a wonderful opportunity for the buyer that is prepared to act when the right home comes on the market. I do a monthly real estate information report on this segment of the market. There is still buyer interest in this area for foreclosure properties. This month's report has seen a slight change in the inventory compared to last month's real estate market report. This report covers all of the bank owned properties listed in the 81416 zip code that are listed in our local MLS (multiple listing service). S...

Del Ray is a stable neighborhood where you don't see much turnover. Sales are slow, because there haven't been many properties come on the market in the last few years. There hasn't been any activity in this neighborhood since last month's real estate market report. That means there are no new listings or sales to report. Here's a look at the activity so far this year: There's one active listing priced at $225,000. Two homes have sold. The average selling price is $208,500 and the median sales price is $208,500. The real estate market is showing some improvement in this neighborhood. In 2015 three homes sold with an average selling price of $169,000. The highest price sale was $180,000. That's a 15.8% increase in the average selling price compared to last year.  We typically have a stro...

We are seeing quite a bit of activity with the two bedroom home segment of the Delta, CO real estate market. There are fewer homes on the market than there were last month, and a few new listings have also come on the market. There really is a wide variety of two bedroom homes for sale in the Delta area. This report will cover those homes listed in the local MLS. It includes homes in and out of town. It also includes manufactured homes and townhomes.  At this time there are 21 two bedroom homes on the market. Of these 8 are under contract pending a sale.  Two of the listings are new since last month's report. One of them is already under contract.  Prices start at $45,000 (this is a fixer upper and it's a great opportunity for the cash investor buyer) and go up to $299,999. The average ...

Fox Hollow is a great neighborhood on Garnet Mesa. The homes tend to be larger with custom finishes. The neighborhood has nice Grand Mesa and West Elk Mountain views. This is a neighborhood people love to call home. The neighborhood real estate market is heating up as we head into fall. There have been some changes since last month's real estate market report.  One new listing has come on the market and that property is already under contract.  There are two active listings and three that are pending a sale. All of the homes on the market at this time have three bedrooms and two baths.  List prices start at $219,000 and go up to $259,900.

The number of three bedroom homes on the market in Delta, CO has changed quite a bit since last month's real estate market report. This segment of the market generally changes very quickly, but we've seen a big drop in the number of available properties over the last month.  There are 60 three bedroom homes on the market. There are another 21 homes pending a sale.  Fourteen of these listings have come on the market in the last month.

This neighborhood has a great location on Garnet Mesa near the high school. It's made up of manufactured and site built houses...most of them are ranch style homes with predominately three bedroom, two bath floor plans. There isn't any new information to share since last month's real estate market report.  At this time there are no active or pending listings. So NOW is a great time to list your home.  Four homes have sold since the first of the year.  Looking at the average sold price isn't a fair indication of market value, since two of the sales were bank owned and sold for below market value of a home in good condition in this neighborhood. Three of the four sales were manufactured homes. Selling prices started at $53,000 and went to $138,000.  A traditional site built home sold in M...

This is one of Delta, Colorado's newer neighborhoods. It sits on the south side of town near the bypass, so the location is great for those commuting to Grand Junction or Montrose. These homes are priced nicely for the area as you will see from the market information below. There's only been a slight change in the real estate market news since last month's report.  There are only two homes for sale. The homes are priced at $152,000 and $173,000.  One home is pending a sale.  No homes have sold in the last month. This is mainly due to the lack of properties on the market. Two homes have sold so far this year. The average selling price is $154,786.

The Delta Panthers hosted the Durango Demons for their opening season game. I missed the game, and I wish I hadn't. It sounds like this one had a lot of action happening, but it didn't go in Delta's favor. Delta lost this non conference game 21 to 20. Durango Demon player Gavin Mestas made it into the state record book for returning a kickoff 99 yards to score a touchdown. Mestas also had two interceptions with one of them resulting in a touchdown, and he received a 42 yard pass resulting in another touchdown. He also kicked three extra points. The Panthers next game is 9/9. The team will travel to Craig and take on Moffat County High School. That game starts at 7pm. I've lived on Colorado's Western Slope for over 26 years. I love this area and all it has to offer, and I enjoy sharing w...

If the so called experts are correct, we could see Delta go all the way and take the state championship this year. The Delta Panthers are a Division 3A school. They will start off their 2016 season with a home game against Durango. That non conference game is on 8/26 at 7PM. Here's a link to the Panther's full season schedule. Last year Delta made it into the playoffs. They lost their semi-final game to end their season. Locally the Panthers will travel for their game against Palisade. That game takes place on 9/22. They also have an away game against Gunnison on 10/28. That is the last regular season game for the Panthers. Both games start at 7PM. GO PANTHERS!!!If you would like more information on this area...specifically moving to this wonderful area of Delta County, please contact m...

This is a segment of the market that we are not hearing much about these days, and that's good news. There are very few foreclosure opportunities in the Delta, CO area at this time. We have seen the number of active listings go down since last month's report. This report covers all of the bank owned/REO/foreclosure properties listed in the local MLS in the 81416 zip code. This includes the town of Delta and the rural surrounding area.  At this time there are three active listings and two that are pending a sale. Prices start at $76,000 and go up to $249,900. The average list price is $175,980 and the median list price is $173,000. Foreclosure sales make up about 12% of residential sales countywide.  There is a lot of competition for the bank owned properties that are available. In a lot...

The colors in this one are amazing. We've had some light rain showers off an on for the last couple of days. The weather is pretty nice for the most part, but we get these occasional small showers, and in this case the setting sun reflected off of the clouds so nicely. I don't think there was much rain involved, but the sky looked beautiful. Biker Boy (AKA Mike) decided to do some late night car repairs so we raced off to Delta to get parts before the store closed. We were rewarded with this beautiful sky. I've lived on Colorado's Western Slope for over 26 years. I love this area and all it has to offer, and I enjoy sharing what I know about my home. As a REALTOR®, I also love to share my expertise in this area as well. If you need any real estate information for Montrose County, or Del...

It's been a while in coming, but the good news is that we will soon have water at the Delta dog park. It will be great to be able to fill the wading pool donated by Joyce Fenn. Joyce says she has two more pools she's bought. She's waiting to bring them to the park until we finally have the water. Way to go, Joyce. Thank you. Water at the park will also make it easier for us to keep the dogs cool during the summer months. From what I've heard, the town will be using the lake water. So I'll still be bringing plenty of fresh water for the dogs and myself to drink. The town has been very supportive, and already supplied a shelter and a picnic table. For a while we only had a bench and no shade.  Rumor has it the park should have water sometime this month. There are other improvements coming...

This is one of Delta's newer subdivisions on the north side of town. There are one and two story homes with three and a few four bedroom floor plans. The neighborhood has it's own park and nice views of Grand Mesa and the West Elk Mountains. If you are thinking of living in Delta, but commuting to Grand Junction this is a great neighborhood for you to consider.
