Making the Comparison

I've never been in this situation before. Normally, when comparing the most expensive property in Colorado to that of another state, the properties are somewhat similar in size, property, and condition. This post is a little different.

The Colorado property is a condo on top of retail space. The property in New Mexico is a 7,588-acre ranch with several residential structures, its own firehouse, airstrip, hanger, tennis court, and stables.

This comparison takes apples and oranges to an entirely new level. Add to it the properties differ in price by almost $50,000,000, and we have a drastic degree of contrast.

It's in the eye of the beholder. Many people consider Aspen, Colorado to be their favorite place on Earth. Then again, many would prefer living remotely on a ranch with wide open spaces and amenities.

For the Record...

These two properties have absolutely nothing to do with one another. In addition, I am not a realtor and am in no way affiliated with the owners and/or listing agent(s) for these properties. Neither I nor the owners of this website have any interest in these listings.
