Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | 2019 Mid-Year

I am pleased to present the 2019 Mid-Year Market Report for the Jackson Hole area. Following an impressive first quarter, real estate sales throughout Jackson Hole cooled off in the second quarter, which caused the cumulative sales volume to finish the first half of the year below 2018 levels. It’s worth noting, however, that the dip owes partly to an impressive performance in 2018, rather than a lackluster second quarter this year.

The Jackson Hole real estate market started off strong in 2019, with total dollar volume up 39 percent at the end of the first quarter compared to Q1 2018. Activity then fell in the second quarter, which caused the mid-year dollar volume and number of transactions to decline 16 percent and 13 percent, respectively.

Last year, by contrast, year-over-year sales volume was down through the first quarter, but the market rallied in the second quarter to put mid-year sales up 33 percent compared to the year prior.

While the overall sales volume was down in Teton County, Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates’ sales volume grew more than 6 percent through the mid-year point. Once again, our team proudly represented the most buyers and sellers of any brokerage in the region.

Following trends over the past several quarters, overall average and median sale prices increased four percent and five percent, respectively. Inventory continued to tighten, down two percent compared to mid-year 2018, however, the average days on market increased modestly, up five percent compared to the same period a year earlier.

Most property sales in 2019 have been in the $1 million to $2 million range. Condos and townhomes stole some market share from the single-family segment, accounting for 42 percent of transactions in the first half of the year. The near sell-out of the Virginian Village condominium units (which were listed by Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates) helped drive up sales under $500,000 by 38 percent.

Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | 2019 Quarter 1

The Jackson Hole real estate market is off to a strong start through the first quarter of 2019, buoyed by continued demand for high-dollar properties. A jump in luxury property sales significantly pushed up the overall average and median sales prices, including one notable property listed above $17 million, even though the number of transactions fell compared to the first quarter of 2018.

The number of sales recorded fell 11% in the first quarter compared to the same period a year earlier, but the average sale price increased 79%. That jump was driven primarily by transactions between $2 – $5 million, which jumped 71%, and sales above $5 million, which grew 83%, compared to the first quarter of 2018. Sales in the luxury market (above $3 million) grew 33 percent. The acceleration on the upper end of the market skews the overall average and median sale prices, which emphasizes the need to consider each segment independently.

Single-family homes made up the lion’s share of transactions, 44%, followed closely by condominiums and townhomes, which accounted for 40%. Overall, inventory dropped again, down 10% from the first quarter of 2018. Properties are also continuing to sell faster, with the average time on market down to 176 days.

Inventory fell 10 percent compared to the first quarter of 2018, continuing a trend of tightening supply in the Jackson Hole market. There were 126 transactions recorded in the first quarter of 2019, which marks an 11 percent decline from a year earlier.

Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | Quarter 3 2018

Jackson Hole’s real estate market remains on a strong path through the third quarter, with 12 percent more sales and a 13 percent increase in median sale price compared to the same period last year. Rising prices have caused supply of properties under $500,000 to dwindle, which is apparent in the 21 percent decline in transactions below that price point.

The most sales took place in the $500,000 to $1 million segment, which accounts for more than one-third of sales this year. The $2 million to $5 million segment notched the largest gain in transactions, up 83 percent compared to a year ago.

The Town of Jackson continues to lead the area by far in sales volume. Even so, overall, inventory fell again, down nearly 20 percent, which contributed to a 16 percent decrease in the average property’s days-on-market.

Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | Mid Year 2018

 

On behalf of our team of dedicated professionals at Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates, we are pleased to present our comprehensive market report for the mid-year 2018. In this detailed report, you will find information on the market segments making up the Jackson Hole area. As the market leader in Jackson Hole, we have developed a more dynamic report that sheds fresh light on the insights and trends that are shaping our real estate market.

Jackson Hole’s real estate market started very strong in the first half of 2018 with number of transactions up 11% and average sale price up 10%. Even more important to note was the increase in median sale price, a more accurate indicator, up 22% from a year ago. The majority of transactions were in the $500,000 – $1 million price segment, however, there was a sharp increase in transactions over $5 million, up 77%. This sharp increase drove total dollar volume up by 33% compared to a year ago. The single family home segment was the most popular among buyers achieving 41% of the mid-year market share. Inventory continued to decrease as did well-priced new inventory, which was a contributor to the 23% decrease in active listings and 13% decrease in average days on market.

Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | Q1 2018

 

On behalf of our team of dedicated professionals at Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates, we are pleased to present our comprehensive market report for 2018 quarter 1. In this detailed report, you will find information on the market segments making up the Jackson Hole area. As the market leader in Jackson Hole, we have developed a more dynamic report that sheds fresh light on the insights and trends that are shaping our real estate market.

While the total dollar volume in quarter 1 of 2018 was almost the same as 2017, number of transactions increased significantly, up 22%. Average sale price decreased by 36%, this figure was skewed by a large transaction in 2017. The median sale price decreased by 11% and was a function of the type of property transactions that took place in the beginning of 2018. Nearly 60% of the transactions in quarter 1 were in the under $1 million price segment, a 40% increase when compared to the same period last year. New inventory remained very low driving average days on market down, decreased 15%.

Jackson Hole Real Estate Market Report | Year End 2017

 

On behalf of our team of dedicated professionals at Jackson Hole Real Estate Associates, we are pleased to present our comprehensive market report for 2017 year-end. In this detailed report, you will find information on the market segments making up the Jackson Hole area. As the market leader in Jackson Hole, we have developed a more dynamic report that sheds fresh light on the insights and trends that are shaping our real estate market.

Persistent demand and lean supply drove prices upward in 2017. Even though the number of transactions remained steady, average and median sale prices increased by 15% and 3%, respectively. The south of Jackson area received the largest increase in the number of transactions, up nearly 60% compared to last year. This is primarily due to the success of the Snake River Sporting Club development, which had 26 transactions in 2017. Properties in the $500,000- $1 million price range were the most popular representing about 37% of total transactions. Active listings declined 23% compared to last year which caused an even more competitive environment for buyers. With 50 properties under contract at 2017 year-end, the start to the new year is expected to follow much of the same pattern of 2017.

Vacant Land Mid-Year 2017

Single-family vacant lot sales spiked in the first six months of 2017 with 49 sales (up 75%).  Meanwhile the average and median sale prices dropped, down 25% and 14% respectively, when compared to mid-year 2016.   The drop in the average and median sale prices is a result of the spike in the number of vacant land sales under $1 million (up 143%).  NOTE: Most areas of the valley experienced an increase in vacant single-family lot sales over last year.

Who is buying vacant land?  The 2017 demographics have changed some: While half of the buyers are still second homeowners and retiring baby boomers, the remaining half are buying for spec building.  This trend continues to bode well for our local construction industry.  NOTE: Most residential vacant land purchases were cash (59%), bought by end-users intending to build a home for themselves or to speculate.

Single-family vacant lots under contract – 11 properties currently in negotiations (down 8%), of which only two are listed for under $500,000 and five for over $1 million.

Available inventory of listed lots dipped 9% from Q2 2016.  Following suit the dollar volume and median list price are down 11% and 7% respectively.  The drop in the median list price reflects more inventory in the under $500,000 segment of our market.  NOTE: Supply will continue to outpace demand so do not expect to see appreciation in this segment for the remainder of 2017.  Based on mid-year results, there are currently 18 months of available inventory.

Current available inventory breaks down as follows: 15 single-family lots under $500,000 (up 15%); 49 lots between $500,000 and $1 million (down 10%); 41 lots between $1 and $2 million (down 15%); 20 lots between $2 and $3 million (down 17%); 11 lots between $3 and $5 million (up 22%); 13 lots between $5 and $10 million (down 15%); and five lots over $10 million (down 17%)
