Mid-Year Market Update

Denver Edges Toward Balance

As we hit the halfway point in the year, Denver’s housing market is showing signs of stabilizing. More homes are becoming available, but many buyers are still hesitating due to high prices and interest rates. It’s clear that the cost of housing, especially at median price points, remains a significant hurdle.

Inventory levels are a strong signal that we’re approaching a balanced market for the first time in over a decade. One useful metric to understand this balance is Months of Inventory (MOI). MOI indicates how long it would take to sell all the current listings if no new properties were added. For example, if one home sells per month in a neighborhood with six homes on the market, the MOI is six months. A balanced market in Denver typically has 4-6 months of inventory. Currently, the MOI stands at 2.78 months.
