Denver's Luxury Real Estate Market Update - September 2018

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 over $1 million.   Some have mountain and/or city views, some back to a golf course or have water views.  (however, we don't have much water)  Some are upgraded with products from the around the world, and some have expansive square footage or on acreage.     Whatever a Buyer is looking for, most likely if you have over $1 million, you can find it in Denver or in the surrounding suburbs.   

 

Here is how the luxury market fared for the month of September 2018 -

Total sales - 95 homes ranging from $1,002,000 to $5,100,000 (last month was 165 homes)

Average Days on Market - 50 days (last month was 25)

Average price per SF - $252.03 (last month was $409.24)

These homes were built from 1883 to 2018

The highest priced home sold was $5,100,000 in  the Denver Metro and was on acreage within Greenwood Village 

There were no short sales and were no bank foreclosures sold this month.

 

There was no photo of this property, and was the highest sale for the month of September 2018, and was $5,100,000 in Greenwood Village.   This custom home was built in 1963 with eight bedrooms, seven bathrooms and a 2 car garage on 9.63 acres.    This home has a total of 8,051 total square feet and was sold the day it hit the market.

 

 The real estate market is showing a shift with lower priced homes, and this month seeing a shift in the luxury market as well.

 

Looking for a home on acreage and private?    With mountain views?    Or would like to see what homes are for sale over $1,000,000?   There are current no bank owned properties for sale - but check back to see when they come on the market  bank foreclosure for sale.

Today, you will find 694 homes for sale in the Denver metro area listed over $1,000,000 up to $22,000,000.   They have been on the market for an average of 107 days and these homes were built from 1882 to 2019.

 

There are 150 homes currently under contract over $1,000,000 up to $4,995,000 with an average 65 days on market.    These homes were built from 1885 to 2019.

 

Enjoy the Summer, and if you have thought about a home with mountain views and stellar outdoor entertainment areas, give me a call.

Hi Joan: So how did the home in Greenwood Village sell the day it hit the market? Was it the same agent who brought a buyer or an agent in their office? Somebody must have advance notice, don't you think,  because how many people can decide within 12 hours to blow $5 million on a home the day before did not exist for sale? Was it a neighbor?

Elizabeth Weintraub Sacramento Real Estate Agent, Top 1% of Lyon Agents I thought the same thing, but was not new construction, not the same agent, or from the same office.   MAYBE a buyer approached the owner, and they got their agents together?   It was a cash sale too.

Hello Joan - " luxury " can/is defined so differently in each market not only by price but amenities and size along with other factors.  It's important to point out. Good review/ update of this segment of that market in Denver.

Michael Jacobs I actually thought of you when writing this yesterday, and know each market's definition of luxury is different.
