Colorado land IS selling: Colorado Springs Land Market Report

Despite all the doom and gloom that you hear on the news, land IS selling in the Colorado Springs area. In fact, 7 more land transactions closed this year between June 1 and Sept. 29 as compared to the same time period last year. Over the last four months, 34 land transactions closed as compared to 27 last year. Additionally, more expensive tracts have been selling this year.

The source of my data is from the Pikes Peak MLS. It may not include all transactions that occurred. For a sale to qualify to be listed in this particular snapshot, the land had to be in El Paso County and be a minimum of two acres.


Colorado Springs Area Land


Land values in the Colorado Springs area vary GREATLY based on location and whether or not the property is in a subdivision. For example, the rolling plains properties sell for significantly less per acre than the mountain properties.

Other factors that affect price include the quality of road access, fencing and the availability of water and utilities.

The property that sold for the most per acre was in the highly sought after area of the Broadmoor Hotel.

The 160 acre tract was in El Paso County. However, it had to be accessed via Rampart Range Rd in Woodland Park, Teller County. It is a very nice property. The photograph above was taken on that property. (No, my client was not the buyer.)

The source of this data is from the Pikes Peak MLS. It may not include all transactions that occurred. For a sale to qualify to be listed in this snapshot, the land had to be in El Paso County and be a minimum of two acres.
