The Conservatory Market Update - Aurora CO - October 2018

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with House to Home, Inc. - Denver Real Estate - 720-231-6373 DRE# ER40011786

 

 

Wondering how the market is doing in The Conservatory?   Each month I do the statistics for this neighborhood to see how long homes are on the market, number of homes sold and how the home values are doing.  This is how you stay on top of a market shift.  Below you will find the update for this month and what is currently available.

  

Homes in The Conservatory  have basements, some are finished, some have mountain views and were built from 2002 to 2016.  There are ranch models along with two story and multi-level homes ranging in square footage from 1,387 to almost 3,000 above ground.  DR Horton/Continental was the original builder, but now Richmond, Standard Pacific and Carpace have homes in this neighborhood also.  There approximately 1,400 homes in this neighborhood.

 

You will find this neighborhood located North of Hampden between C-470 and Tower Road in South Aurora 80013.  The Conservatory has been desirable to buyers with its newer construction homes, several pocket parks, trails for hiking or walking the dog, being a pool community and easy access to C-470 and Denver International Airport.   Grocery shopping and many dining options and plentiful retail therapy is within ten minutes.  Southlands Shopping Center is off C-470 and Smoky Hill Road offering not only shopping, but a 16-screen movie theater, many dining options, a hotel, Farmers Market in the Summer along with outdoor concerts and many service providers.

 

The Current Market

8 active listings prices ranging from $377,000 to $475,000 

40 average days on market

You can find the current Active Homes for Sale in The Conservatory

 

2 homes currently are Under Contract priced at $469,000 and $445,000

Average days on market are 47 days

 

Although we are seeing a slowdown since mid-summer, it is still a Seller's market.   When we see 180 days on market it will be a balanced market.

  

 

What happened in October 2018?

7 homes SOLD ranging from $408,000 to $525,000 

These homes were on the market for only 13 days 

Sellers saw 100% to list price  

 

 

Here is what all of 2017 looked like - 

Total Sales - 104 sales (148 in previous year)

Average Days on Market - 9 days (10 in previous year)

Average Sold Price $402,500 ($375,000 in previous year)

Sellers saw 100% sales price to list price (100% in previous year)

 

 

 

  

 

 

Are we in a housing bubble?   Economists around Denver are saying all the factors say NO.  The unemployment rate is very good, and significantly lower than the national average.   Supply and demand continue to remain strong and we are see an influx of new residents coming into Denver looking for housing.

  

 

 

If you are interested in homes for sale in The Conservatory, or would like to discuss your options to sell, please give me a call.  I live and work in the Aurora area, and am an experienced REALTOR® in this strong Seller's market.
