‘Stabilized at lower prices’ seems an appropriate summary phrase for 2009 sales activity in the Pagosa Springs area compared to 2008.  The market segment graphed in red, residences selling at $500,000 – $750,000 suffered an alarming 54% drop in sales, but overall sales of homes and condos / townhomes were down only 11% from 2008 levels.

Buyers enjoyed lower housing prices, with the average purchase price down 15% from 2008 and the median price down 8%. 

An 11% drop in sales is hardly good, but check out this lower graph for some brightening signs heading into the new year.  As with land sales, there was a positive shift in the 4th quarter with sales gaining significant relative strength especially in November and December 2009.
