The real estate market in Gunnison County stayed lively during the week of March 16–22, 2026, bringing a fresh wave of activity across the valley. The market saw 15 new listings hit the market and 5 new sales, with total sales volume climbing to an impressive $11,757,500. While there was one fewer sale compared to the previous week, the real headline is the strong jump in dollar volume—nearly doubling last week’s $6,249,000 in total sales. This suggests that buyers are continuing to pursue higher-value properties and that confidence in the mountain market remains strong. More listings also mean more opportunities for buyers to explore the diverse homes and land available throughout the area.
Looking back at the previous week (March 9–15), the county recorded 11 new listings and 6 sales, meaning this week brought more inventory to the market while maintaining steady buyer activity. This kind of movement is a healthy sign as we move closer to spring—new listings provide momentum, and strong sales volume shows that serious buyers are still making moves. In markets like Crested Butte and Gunnison, this balance between new inventory and motivated buyers often sets the stage for an active spring season.
Looking ahead to this week, residents can expect classic late-March mountain weather with a mix of sunshine, crisp mornings, and the occasional snow shower as winter slowly transitions toward spring. Daytime temperatures typically hover in the 30s to low 40s°F, perfect for enjoying late-season skiing near Crested Butte Mountain Resort or exploring local trails as the days grow longer. Community events and early spring gatherings are also starting to pop up around town, keeping the valley buzzing with activity as we inch closer to Easter and the spring travel season.
