Boulder Valley Economic Snapshot - February '11


Before a declining real estate market can recover it must reach a plateau. It must halt its negative momentum and begin the arduous process of turning itself around. This can often take an inordinate amount of time, because it is contingent on a number of factors. There needs to exist favorable mortgage interest rates, motivated and somewhat plentiful buyers, reasonably priced properties and acceptable levels of available inventory. There must be a timely transition from a buyer’s market to a more balanced buyer/seller market.
