The 2024 sales year has been excellent with the MindyLand Team helping buyers & sellers achieve their real estate goals!

Hello and Welcome to our August MindyLand Newsletter!
Â
July was a fun and busy month here in the Gunnison Country! Cattlemen's Days and the Crested Butte Wildflower Festival area always highlights in the month of July. The Blue Mesa Middle Bridge now has limited openings each day for one lane of traffic. This is very welcome news for those traveling to and from the Gunnison Valley! Click here for closure details and travel times.
Â
August continues to draw many visitors to the Gunnison Valley and proves to be a productive sales month. We continue to see more property listings coming on the market. With the remaining half of our busy selling season ahead, more property is coming on the market! Currently there are 67 properties under contract (according to our local CREN MLS data) totaling $76,243,420. Mortgage rates have remained level with the 30 year fixed rate currently at 7.579%.
Â
If you are planning to be in the Gunnison and Crested Butte area during this fabulous month of August, Erin and I would love to see you again! Please stop by our new office at 218 N Main Street here in Gunnison for a friendly visit and a cold beverage! Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays, from 1 to 5 pm, I am usually in in the Gunnison office, and the CB office on Elk Avenue by appointment. If you are visiting on the weekend, I am usually around so please give me a call. It would be great to hear from you.Â
