November Denver Housing Stats


Analysis:

We wrote about "buyer fatigue" last month, and the data for this month tells a similar tale. After several years of prices rocketing up by 10%+ a year, Buyers have become worn down and burned out. The constant bidding wars and price increases have been met with a sudden slowing in the market which began in September and which we are fully realizing now.

Sellers are continuing to adapt to this change, and we are seeing more flexibility in certain segments. In many cases, sellers are more willing to work with down payment assistance programs that require Seller concessions.

For buyers who have waited out the crazy market for the past several months, this continues to be a great time to re-evaluate the market and the availability in your target neighborhoods. While home prices in the metro Denver area are still forecasted to rise 5-6% annually, the fierce competition is predicted to see a continued softening.

Give us a call to talk about your options and the many new Down Payment Assistance Programs available.

If you'd like to discuss your situation in detail, please don't hesitate to call Brian directly at 303-817-0209.
