You can’t find huge contemporary mansions with swimming pools, multiple wings and expansive gardens in Alaska, like you would see in Los Angeles. Alaska’s got its own unique style in culture, activities, people. Why not, homes?!
Although most Alaskan homes were built between the 70s and 80s, the real estate market has been expanding in the last few years. Homeowners, flippers and especially builders have been slowly redefining styles in the traditional Alaskan homes. You may have seen some of them around town: Spinell Homes, Hultquist Homes, Hall Quality Homes, Visser Construction, and so many more. These builders have definitely helped pave the way Alaskans live with beautiful home features and design.
Home buyers now have more options and accuracy when looking for a new house. It is not easy to settle down for outdated kitchen cabinets, appliances, fixtures, popcorn ceilings, etc. The expectation is higher, and that’s changing real estate in Anchorage and all of Alaska.
Overall, we feel like this year was a great one for the real estate industry in Alaska. Our office, Precision Home Group, alone closed on 43 properties, and sold homes 44% faster than industry average. Some of the best, contemporary and traditional homes were up for sale, and many of them were snagged up quickly!
Without further adieu, here are the best homes that were on the market in 2018!
