A View Forward
As we transition from a period of heightened market activity and rising prices amplified by the global pandemic, the Telluride real estate market continues to recalibrate to conditions where sales and transactional volume are more consistent with historic data patterns. While property inventory levels slowly return to pre-pandemic numbers, the supply-constrained nature of this storied destination combined with the cost-intensive aspects of building in a remote setting have contributed to less price erosion in Telluride compared to larger urban, suburban, and coastal markets across the U.S.
We offer a clear perspective on this remarkable region, providing detailed data on nearly all relevant aspects of the Telluride market over the last decade. You'll find comparative statistical insights from other mountain resort markets, information on our exclusive residential and ranch listings, business background, and our company's brand competencies.
If you're exploring opportunities in the Telluride region, let us help you navigate this unique environment.

Telluride by the Numbers
A comparison of the two primary communities within the Telluride Region highlights distinct differences between median pricing and price per square foot associated with the historic downtown area known as the town of Telluride and the ski-in/ski-out community of Mountain Village. The delta in pricing can be attributed to the smaller, more cost intensive style of homes found within the historic district, which is heavily governed by strict architectural guidelines. Conversely, residences with larger gross square footages on larger parcels of land contribute to the higher gross selling prices often found in Mountain Village.
