It’s a perfect Spring weekend and here is our latest “Focus on Central Park” edition, bringing you the latest neighborhood listings, open houses you can tour, 80238 news & more!

One quick “PSA” before we jump into the real estate.  Remember that massive hail storm in 2024 that ruined a lot of roofs around Central Park?  It was actually on May 30th, 2024, which is kind of important. Next Saturday is the two year anniversary of that storm.  If you think your home may have been damaged and you haven’t filed an insurance claim you may want to do that before the two year anniversary.  Some insurance policies have two year time limits for filing claims.  Here is a Central Park Scoop blog post we wrote to help you titled “I Got a Gal: Roofer Help You May Want Before May 30th”.

On to the neighborhood real estate for the week…

Interested in speaking with a Focus agent about one of the homes above or your Central Park move this year? We’re around this beautiful spring weekend and here to help. You can set up a chat here or just reach out using the contact info at the end of this post. 

Under Contract Homes This Week

There were 14 homes that went under contract in Central Park in the last week.  Of the 14, 10 went under contract in the first week!  Buyer activity is solid right now, which is common in spring. The key for sellers right now is having the home presented well and pricing it realistically to start.  Buyers are active, but they’re also selective since they have more options than they did in past markets.  We’re happy to stage your listing at our expense and help you make the most strategic investments to maximize your sales price.  If you’re interested in listing this spring let’s chat! My contact information is at the bottom of this post.

Sold Homes This Week

There were 19 homes that closed in the past week.  You can see them all in the link above if you’re curious about what various home types cost. 

Total Active Central Park Listings

There are now 96 total active listings in the neighborhood.  Inventory is holding pretty steady lately, with market absorbing roughly as many homes as hit the market.  (shown above in the # this week – 16 new homes hit the market and 14 went under contract)

Disclaimer: Our Friday real estate updates are meant to be a “roundup” type post where we discuss all for sale and for rent listings in Central Park, not just our own.  It’s our way of making sure we follow the market closely and we share it with the Scoop readers because we know many of you like to track real estate in the area as well.  Many of the listings in these posts are not our company’s listings and we wanted to mention that here to make sure it’s clear. Thanks for reading the Scoop!
