The 2024 sales year has been excellent this first quarter with the MindyLand Team helping buyers & sellers achieve their real estate goals! We are looking good heading into this second quarter!
Dear Friend, Client, Customer and Fan of Mindyland,
Spring is here and what a seasonal start it has been! CBMR will be wrapping up another great ski season with closing day this Sunday, April 7th. Monarch Mountain follows the following weekend on April 14th. The Dos Rios Golf Course announced that the Dos Grill and Driving Range will be opening today, April 1st, and the golf course will open the following week (weather permitting). As we head into the "shoulder-season" we invite you to visit our Community tab on the Mindy-Land.com web site for local events and activities happening throughout the valleys.
Gunnison County properties remain in high demand with the Gunnison area market continuing to outpace our neighbors in Crested Butte. Currently there are 45 properties under contract in our CREN-MLS system totaling $51,551,308. More listings are entering the market for the spring selling season. However, property inventory continues to be low and one of the largest challenges for prospective buyers wanting to buy now. Mortgage rates have remained fairly consistent over the past couple of months but the Fed reports are inconsistent for the near future. Today’s average for a 30 year fixed rate is 7.494% APR; down slightly from 7.62% APR at the beginning of March.
Listing and sales activity in Mindy-Land has been good this past month with three new listings entering the market, three pending sales to close on April 15th, and our latest home listing already under contract! Feel free to reach out to me or stop by our new office at 218 N Main Street for a visit and a hot or cold beverage! I am in the downtown Bluebird office on Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays from 1 to 5 pm. We can sit down and visit about your future real estate goals.
Thank you for reading the April MindyGram. Enjoy the brief shoulder-season and warm spring weather that is appearing every other day! We look forward to seeing you in MindyLand soon!

MindyLand Market Briefs
Gunnison Market Update
From our MLS feeds we can see that here in the south end of the valley we closed out February with $28.6M in residential sales volume year to date; putting us $12.8M above the sales volume at this same time last year. Another $8.3M is currently under contract putting us on track for another incredible year in real estate!
This year’s average sales price is up an incredible 60.4% from $453,473 in 2023 to $1,145,758 in 2024 with inventory continuing to move rather quickly. We remain in the throws of a strong Seller’s Market due to the lack of homes and land now on the market.
