It's Olympic month and no community is more excited than Park City, Utah. Since 2002 when we hosted the Olympics, athletes, athlete families and athlete enthusiasts have made the greater Park City area their home. Many live here, train here and enjoy the lifestyle and training facilities. Living amongst such energy and wonderful people is one reason Park City is a great place to live, work and vacation.
Take January this year. Olympic trials were held at our venues: Deer Valley, Park City, the Olympic Park and Soldier Hollow. These competitions and celebrations were a highlight of the month and exhilarating to watch. And at the same time, Sundance attracted movie goers, celebrities, film business executives and a ton of press. We were in the news daily. Some might think that this kind of intense activity would make the town a mess. On the contrary. Everything ran like clock work. Skiers experienced uncrowded slopes, while movie enthusiasts filled the theaters from morning well into the night. It was truly a great month of fun.
The best news is that the real estate market is making a good recovery. Transactions are up. Values staying almost the same. Click here for the latest update on the Park City Real Estate Market.
The summer is half over and the real estate market is still cooking. It has been a hot one but a relief to be in the cool mountains. As always, there are plenty of fun things to do up here and I can't get enough. I'm a big fan of the Deer Valley concert series and love the parks and trails and summer outdoor dining. It feels so good. Park City and the Heber Valley have enjoyed a good year of real estate with values climbing but at a steady pace. Click HERE to read the full 2nd Quarter Market Report.
