Colorado Springs Homes for Sale Jump in January

This time of year we always have a new surge in listing activity, and 2011 is no exception. There are 4,392 active single family homes for sale in Colorado Springs as of this morning, which is actually not bad for this time of year. I have added a few myself this week (visit my listings page to see some of the nice ones I have, all with virtual tours!).
The winter months are a good time to look at homes, because with some fresh inventory and not so many relocation buyers yet (they tend to come in the later spring), it makes for pleasant shopping, good selection, and with interest rates in the mid 4’s, an awesome to buy a homein Colorado Springs. We’re in for some mild weather this week again too (upper 40’s – low 50’s), which makes it pleasant to be outside as well!
This is also a good time of year to think about having a new house built. They can take 6 months, which means getting started in January is a perfect time to get the process going for a summer move, and some time to get a new lawn going.
