As autumn brings cooler weather and the promise of snow to the Vail Valley after a gorgeous warm fall, the local real estate market is holding strong. September saw a seasonal dip in sales, as is expected at the end of the summer. In September, 86 homes sold, down from 100 homes that closed in August. Local home prices cooled slightly, with a median sale price in July of $1,597,500, a dip from $1,687,500 the previous month.
