Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make in your life. In a tight housing market, like Eagle 久久热精品视频app, actually finding a house is perhaps even harder than hammering out all the financial details of what you can afford.

鈥淚nventory is at a 10-year low. That is a really key component to the amount of listings that are available to people under [$500,000],鈥� said John Pfeiffer, president and employing broker at Slifer, Smith & Frampton.

He added that the Vail Valley鈥檚 seen a stable, healthy economy since the recession in 2008.

鈥淭he good news is, a lot of the inventory we had a few years ago has been purchased. A lot of buyers stepped into the market and a lot of those listings are now gone,鈥� he said.

Despite the relatively slim pickings, Pfeiffer stated that now is a great time to buy a house, for those considering, because interest rates are low and home values are increasing at healthy rates.

鈥淧rices have not gone crazy in running up, so they鈥檙e not paying a peak price, and interest rates are at record lows. That鈥檚 a dream scenario for newer buyers,鈥� he said.

The Vail Daily decided to see what $500,000 could buy in the Eagle 久久热精品视频app real estate market.

Each listing chosen was sourced from Zillow, an online real estate search website used by many home buyers, and reflects the highest-priced listing in the area without breaking that $500,000 cap at the time of writing. 鈥淣umber of Zillow results鈥� refers to how many listings Zillow fetched in the search. Search settings on Zillow have been set to a maximum of $500,000, and the additional settings are set to allow the maximum number of home listings to come through.

Here鈥檚 a list of home prices under $500,000 in Eagle 久久热精品视频app鈥檚 main residential areas along I-70, including Minturn.
