Why Has the Ski Real Estate Market Slowed Down? Key Factors at Play:
Several factors have contributed to the recent slowdown in the ski real estate market around Bethel and Newry. Higher interest rates have made financing more expensive, leading many buyers to pause or adjust their budgets. Additionally, economic uncertainty and inflation concerns have caused some to hold off on major investments, particularly in second homes. High asking prices have created a standoff between buyers waiting for deals and sellers holding firm on their valuations.
