“We Get Results!”

Ouray Brokers Real Estate Blog
The real estate market in Ouray County continues to improve. I've recently put properties under contract and I'm
negotiating others. That is encouraging since Spring is usually a quiet time of the year. There are some great buys
and unique properties newly listed that I am an exclusive agent for in the county.
MARKET ANALYSIS: The first quarter sales statistics are available from the Montrose Association of Realtors.
It is encouraging that when you compare the first quarter of 2014 to 2013 we see that the median sales price for
Ouray properties is up 9.5% and the average sales price is up a whopping 17.6%! We'll see if that continues. The
number of sold listings has increased 15.4%. Also, the “days on the market until sold” is down by 27.3% from 2013.
Not surprising, the “new listings” are up over 50%, with many property owners wanting to benefit from the uptick in
activity.

TESTIMONIALS:
“Living in Ouray for more than ten years we know all the Realtors in town. Tim Currin is by far the most professional of them
all. His responsiveness is second to none. We are very satisfied with our decision to pick Tim to sell our home”.
Bill & Marilyn Espinosa
“Tim started with a fair assessment of our home’s value and followed up with a Realtor Open House, then the showings started.
He kept us informed on interest in our home. The result was a quick sell in a slow –paced market. I highly recommend Ouray
Brokers and Tim Currin”.
Roger & Maureen Marcum
“Tim Currin really knows the area and how things are selling. From the time he listed out property he kept in touch to inform us
on the market. These were tough times for Sellers and Brokers, but he got it done and sold our house. We thank him!
