Denver Real Estate – Market Statistics for March

The Denver real estate market is continuing to move in the right direction. According to the Denver MLS statistics for March, condos and single-family home prices increased both month-over-month and year-over-year. The current average single-family home price for Denver is $284,035 – an increase of 3.71% over the same period last year. Average condo prices increased by 1.25% over the past year to $161,848.

Additional indicators signaling market improvement are the decreasing days on market. This, combined with significantly fewer homes on the market than last March, is creating fever in the lower price point. Every offer I have submitted in the past two months under $300,000 has been a multiple offer situation.

Denver Residential Statistics by Price Point:

The band chart reflects where the most movement in the market is occurring.  There are only 10.75 weeks of inventory in homes priced in the $200-299,00 price range.  From what I have seen, if the home is priced correctly and in good shape, it goes much quicker than this number suggests.  As noted last month, this creates a nice opportunity if one is considering selling a Denver home.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions about the Denver/Denver suburban real estate market.
