Why it is here
Knight Frank PIRI: Aspen +2.3% in 2025 with its third-highest annual sales volume on record ($2.25bn) and +57.7% over five years. Christie’s International Real Estate Aspen: 2025 single-family median $14.7m (+10%), $3,565/sf, Aspen/Snowmass closed volume above $2.6bn. Savills Ski Report 2025–26: ultra-prime €68,900/sqm, prime €35,100/sqm — the ski-league price leader. UBS places Aspen third internationally at about USD 61,100/sqm. Three independent professional houses, one mountain. Liquidity is seasonal and thin versus any city on this list.
Who it is for
US and international principals who will occupy a true Aspen address through winter and summer and are not shopping a substitute Rockies town on price.
