What I would personally do in Vail
At 6.1 months of supply and a median of 81 days on market, buyers in Vail had time to compare. What I would personally do as a seller is price from the closed sales, not the active list, and plan a price review if the first two weeks bring few showings.
The median moved +13.7% from a year earlier. A shift that size in one area often reflects which homes sold, not only what prices did, so compare like homes before reading it as a trend.

Then estimate the net after payoff and closing costs. That reply is a preliminary CMA, not an instant estimate.
