An early spring isn’t just limited to the anticipation of warmer weather — as we’ve been predicting, a busy real estate season is beginning to bloom! Buyers have started to turn up to the market in droves, thanks to mortgage rates that have dropped a full percentage point since October. Due to this decline in rates, homebuyers with a $3,000 monthly budget have gained nearly $40,000 in purchasing power. That paired with a welcome increase in inventory is providing them more choices than they’ve had in a long time.
New listings increased almost 15% year-over-year to 3,280 and pending home sales increased 6.5% to 3,294. Although buyer activity has increased, many buyers still seem to be choosier than they have in years past. Prices are still at all-time highs and buyers want more bang for their buck, desiring move-in ready homes to help alleviate the sticker shock of current home prices. Median days in MLS has increased by almost 6% to 36 days. Closed sales have declined by about 6.25%, although that shouldn’t be surprising as these homes likely went under contract in December which is our traditionally lowest inventory month of the year.

As the holiday season comes to a close, homeownership continues to be the gift that keeps giving. Not only does it provide the tangible benefits of shelter, safety, and warmth, but nice financial benefits. Real estate is the single largest investment most people make in their lifetime, acting as the most effective means to achieve personal and generational wealth. Case in point, The Federal Reserve reports the net worth of a homeowner is over 40 times greater than that of a renter!
The Denver Metro area is seasonally based, so looking at the year-over-year data paints a more accurate picture of our market at this time of year than the month-over-month data. Most of the metrics from our Market Snapshot are positive year-over-year (except for the number of Sold Listings and Average Days in the MLS). With more Active and Under-contract listings, we may be seeing a more balanced market going into the new year. Plus the potential of lower interest rates could positively impact the final data from December helping to mitigate the typical downward trend that usually occurs at the end of the year.

Now – December 24th: Camp Christmas
“Make merry and immerse yourself in a 15,000-square-foot, 360-degree kaleidoscope of yuletide cheer at this year’s Camp Christmas! It’s fun, it’s fleeting and just the right amount of camp; it’s everything you love about the holidays wrapped into one sparkling experience.
Despite a challenging market due to higher interest rates, homes continue to change hands. Typically, the Denver Metro experiences our lowest inventory within the last two months of the year. This year, however, end-of-year increased inventory is a welcome shift as we enter the holiday season.
Active listings are up just over 2.5% year-over-year. While this increased inventory is a relief to buyers, we still aren’t close to a balanced market. October closed out the month with active listings sitting at 7,482. For context, the average active listings for October are 14,755. We consider a balanced market one with 4-6 months of inventory. We are currently at 2.5 months of inventory.
