March saw a spike in active listings across Greater Metro Denver, with an increase of 54% YoY for both single-family homes and condo/townhomes.
Implications for Buyers
More Options: With inventory up significantly (53.8% year-over-year), buyers have more choices now than they have had in recent years.
Less Competition: The increase in months supply (2.7 months) and days on market (47 days) means less pressure to make quick decisions.
Negotiating Power: Homes are selling for 99.3% of list price, and showings per listing are down YoY, suggesting buyers have more negotiating leverage.
Implications for Sellers
Price Realistically: With increased inventory and longer selling times, accurate pricing is crucial.
Prepare for Longer Timelines: The average days in MLS increased to 47 days, so sellers should be prepared for a longer selling process.
Stronger Spring Market: The seasonal data shows a typical strengthening of the market heading into spring, which could benefit sellers listing now.
Single Family Advantage: Single family homes are holding value better than condos, giving these sellers a relative advantage.
Greater Metro Denver includes the following counties:
