Sun Valley Real Estate and the Great Recession
I am often asked if real estate values have returned to the prices before the Great Recession. In short, overall things look great and the Sun Valley real estate market is strong and improving every day.
The median price for single-family homes for all areas of the Sun Valley MLS was $495,000 in January 2008 and $522,500 in January 2018. Check out the numbers below to see which neighborhoods have made a strong recovery and where a deal might still be made due to the market being softer in some locations.
The condo market is improving every day, but has not rebounded to 2008 levels. The median price of condos and townhouses in January 2008 was $529,000 and was $333,500 in January 2018. However, there are a lot of pending sales and you can read more about the raw data for condo market by referring to my previous blog post.
