As we bid farewell to 2023, it's time to reflect on the Denver real estate market's performance and anticipate what lies ahead. December 2023 brought some notable shifts, mirroring the city's typical seasonal patterns.

The median close price dipped by 2.8 percent to $551,993, and closed sales saw a decrease of 7.65 percent, settling at 2,620. The median days on the market (MLS) experienced a rise of 31.82 percent, increasing from 22 to 29 days. This was largely due to the declining interest rates that began in November.

A Record Setting Year For Denver Real Estate and Home Sales

2020 was a record-setting year. Brokers wrote more contracts on listings, sending them to the pending status, and more homes closed than any year on record.  The number of new listings that hit the market did not keep pace with demand, which made inventory a challenge throughout the year. Highlights for January – December 2020 Strong demand kept prices high with median and average closed prices reaching-time highs. Half of all homes closed sold $450,000 or more.  Contracts were written on homes quickly in 2020. The median number of days a home was available for sale in the MLS was 7, which means half of homes for sale were off the market in a week or less.

House In Denver

How is Zillow's new program to purchase homes directly from Denver home owners going to impact the market and how will it impact the real estate business.  With similiar programs already running in the Phoenix market with Offerpad and OpenDoor, home sellers seem to have taken a liking to these types of services.  But why would you want to take less than what the open market can provide if it's listed with a local real estate professional.  For many sellers it the convenience of not having to go through the selling process and picking their closing date.  With the Denver Housing Market still being fairly brisk, and at lower price points where their is more demand due to the affordability factor,…

Denver Home Sellers Market Is Starting To Favor Home Buyers

According to stats reported by the Denver Metro Association of Realtors, the Denver real estate market is starting to show signs of cooling as we are in the heat of the summer.  As more homes have come on the market, home buying and purchase activity has slowed, and prices have dropped in June, and I am expecting we will see the same thing when the July numbers come out.  Prices appeared to have moved a little to far to fast and this is not an unexpected correction.  Rising interest rates could also be a contributing factor, but home prices do historically rise during a rising rate environment, but sellers will need to adjust their expectations on how quickly they will sell and for what…
