Denver Real Estate News – August 2023

 

Busier than Spring, but Still Slow

LOCAL MARKET UPDATE

The Denver real estate market in June continues to show resilience amidst ongoing challenges. Compared to the previous year, prices remained stable with a slight 0.3% dip. However, compared to May, prices rose by 2.5%. Normally spring is busy in residential real estate, and summer tapers off a bit. This year, spring was a bit slower, and now summer is a bit more active. In June, active listings rose to 6,070, reflecting a 16% increase from May. Condos performed impressively, with a 22% improvement in the listing count, while detached listings saw a 6% drop. The low level of sales volume we experienced in the first half of the year will likely continue until the end of the year.

As we move forward the market may face further challenges, like a mild recession, and it’s crucial to monitor the potential impact of mortgage rate fluctuations on your move. With mortgage rates remaining relatively high, buyer activity might experience a further slowdown. However, Denver’s market is expected to maintain a delicate balance of supply and demand throughout the year, with prices remaining stable within a range of +/- 3%.
