Denver Market Report - October 2011

October's numbers are out for the Denver Real Estate Market!     Inventory is very low 2200 S. University Blvd., Denver, CO   80210especially under $200,000 price point!  Denver is seeing more short sales are getting approved in a shorter time frame.      This data is for the entire Denver Metro area.    Entering into the cooler time of year and the Holiday season, showings have slowed down considerably, which is very typical.     We are seeing the buyers viewing properties are making decisions.


Denver Market Report - October 2011

The amount of active listings have continued to decrease, as October 2010's market report showed an increase of 12.75.      The difference between Pending status and Under Contract is the bank has given a verbal approval for an offer, but has not issued a written approval.   This status is continuing to improve, and the distressed property is starting to decrease.


With buyers having less to choose from when viewing properties, the days on market have decreased, and on occasion are finding multiple offers on properties.    It is nice to see the condo prices increasing again.   During the 2008 housing crisis, condos and townhomes took the biggest decrease in pricing and now is slowing increasing each month.


Interest rates are hovering around 4%, and if you would like to see what properties would fit your criteria, give me a call, or search my web site for your Dream Home.

WOW!  It's amazing to see the Denver inventory down so much!  Ours is going to the point where we only have overpriced listings and short sales - almost NOTHING!

I actually saw an agent email blast describing the home a client wanted to find now before the Holidays hits. Inventory is down some to get that kind of email here.

what a great post on the market.  I like that it is simple to read and understand.  Seems like a great time to buy a short sale under 200K.  Have a great weekend.

I always enjoy a good market report and Im sure buyers in your Denver area do also.  Being able to track the statistics and see where the market is going is going to give both buyers and sellers a more confident idea of the market.

Interesting, Joan. I try to put only single family homes stats/market report.

Your report seems to be a very nice way of showing everything...will see, if I can modify my reports.

The Denver real estate market has done very well over the last several months and even going into the usual slower market, there are still true buyers searching for their DREAM HOME!

Joan, looks like good news for Denver all around!  It's so good to hear that short sales are being approved faster now, maybe the lenders are finally figuring out that it's in their best interest to get short sales done and over with.  Congratulations on the feature!  :-)

Hi Joan,

Good info for anyone considering buying or selling a home in the Denver market area.

Equally imporant I really like the way you framed the data, comparing it to both the prior month and a year earlier. I think that could give home buyers a real good idea of what's going on in your market place.

Good Evening Joan:

An Excellent Market Report.  Prospective Buyers should be jumping off the fence to buy with the low nterest rates these days.

Denver's real estate market is doing better, and if the inventory continues to decrease, the pendulum could swing to a seller's market in the near future.
