Luxury Home Sales in Denver - Market Update October 2022

A Luxury Home can be identified differently in cities across the country, but in Denver, my Luxury blog posts will report on detached single-family homes listed in the Denver metro area for over $1.3 million.  (Over the years I have used $1 million as luxury, but with our rising home values, had the need to increase this amount.)  Some have mountain and/or city views, and some properties back to a golf course, or have water views all to compliment one's lifestyle.  (however, we don't have much water)  Some are updated with products from around the world, and some have expansive square footage or acreage.     Whatever a Buyer is looking for, most likely if you have over $1.3 million, you can find it in Denver or in the surrounding suburbs.   

  

Here is how the luxury market fared for the month of October 2022 -

Total sales - 166 homes ranging from $1,300,000 to $8,675,000 (last month was 221 homes, 2021 was 357)   

Average Days on Market - 29 days (last month was 33 days last month and 2021 was 26 days)

Sellers saw - 98.3% to list price

Average price per SF (Total) - $575.84 (last month was $561.68)

These homes were built from 1885 to 2022

There was a significant drop in sales for October.  33% of the sales were paid with cash, same as the month of September.   There are 595 actives today with 80 days on market, and 206 in pending status with 73 days on market.

 

The highest-priced home sold was $8,675,000 in the Denver Metro and is in the Polo Club.  This home was built in 1961, on 1.1 acres.  It has 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and a 4-car garage.  This home has 9,755 square feet and was sold off-market in zero days.

 

Looking for a home on acreage and private?    With mountain views?    Or would you like to see what homes are for sale over $1,000,000?   How about a home in a gated community?

Football season is upon us, but a media room would be equally as nice to watch a movie with the family and/or friends.   

 

There are 595  homes for sale in the Denver metro area listed over $1,300,000 up to $28,888,888.   They have been on the market for an average of 77 days and these homes were built from 1886 to 2024.     There are no bank-owned properties currently on the market, nor any short sales active.

 

There are 259 homes currently pending over $1,300,000 up to $17,900,000 with an average of 64 days on market.    These homes were built from 1859 to 2023.    

 

Here is how 2020 compared to 2021

Total Sales             2020 - 2,739                  2021 - 4,487

Days on Market      2020 - 53 days              2021 - 27 days

Average Price Sold   2020 - $1,302,500       2021 - 1,350,000

% Seller Saw to List    2020 - 97.06%             2021 - 100%

 

With home values on the rise, we are seeing more sales over $1 million.    I did bump the price point to $1.3 million for 2022.    It isn't unusual to see a million-dollar home.   We are seeing some homes linger a bit longer on the market now.

 

I have obtained my luxury marketing certification which has given me a multitude of new ideas.    If you have seen a home in this post this intrigues you, give me a call - 720-231-6373.

Good morning, Joan... I think your luxury market is still holding its own overall. How do you get the numbers as to cash purchases versus non-cash? I could get those numbers through our mls, but it would take me all month to put them together.

Joan Cox that's not a statistic I can easily find here. But maybe will call our MLS next week and see if I've missed something.
