The six inches of snow that fell on Main St. Park City yesterday told us that it is probably time to take the golf clubs out of the car for the season and start thinking about getting in shape for ski season.
Golf is near and dear to the YouInParkCity.com group so with the days getting shorter and the golf season coming to an end we thought it would be good to recap what has happened so far this year in five amazing Park City golf communities which boast some of the top courses in the state. Which course ranks where is a matter of opinion but in terms of layout and condition they are all exceptional.
January 1 through August 31 there were 121 sales and pending sales in Glenwild, Promontory, Red Ledges, Tuhaye and Victory Ranch combined. This number includes vacant land, single family homes and condos. For the same time period in 2011 total sales and pending sales were 160 properties. For both years the majority of sales were in Promontory as distressed inventory was sold. Even though the number of sales was less in 2012 than in 2011, there are several very positive indicators for real estate in the Park City golf communities. One, there have been several bulk sales in these communities to builders which are not included in the Park City MLS numbers. Two, in Promontory we are seeing a few developer sales as opposed to distressed re-sales. Three, we are seeing an increase in plans being submitted and homes under construction. Four, Promontory, Red Ledges and Tuhaye have added or will break ground next spring on their already significant amenity infrastructure. We also expect exciting announcements from Victory Ranch as the new owners solidify their plans.
We will present a series of blogs in the next few weeks with an overview of each gated golf course community. For an in-depth analysis of a particular area, part of town, or specific property type that interests you contact a real estate professional with YouInParkCity.com at 1-888-968-4672.
