What are the Denver Housing Trends?
Hope this finds you staying healthy during this pandemic.
The July Denver Area Real Estate Update and market final figures for June shows listings down 28.5% (9,218) from June 2019. A lot of that is still the affects of the COVID-19 pandemic. But this lack of homes for sale (inventory of homes) is creating bidding wars again.
One of my clients had to bid $615,000 on a single family home listed at $550,000 to even get in back up position in case the primary contract falls.
Buyers put 10,627 homes Under Contract – a 23.4% increase from June 2019. So last month buyers put more homes (10,627) Under Contract than we had in inventory at the end of the month (9,218). WOW!
The Average Sold Price increased last month – $498,735 in June compared to $483,473 in May. Think about that for a second – the average sold price is almost half a million dollars.
In June 7,280 homes were sold/closed. The absorption rate has dropped again – if no other home came on the market it would take approximately 38 days to absorb/sell all the homes currently on the market (9,218). Anything under 6 months absorption rate is still a sellers’ market, so we’re still in a very strong sellers’ market.
That’s the July Denver Area Metro Real Estate Market Update.

What if I told you that you could sell your home today and live in it for up to 59 days after closing? Maybe even rent free?
Would that solve one of your biggest concerns as a home seller and make the experience less stressful?
It could: 1) Drastically increase your chances of finding a replacement home;
2) Help prevent a double move (Yippee);
3) Increase your bottom line;
4) Give you greater peace of mind.
Because of our drastic lack of homes for sale in the #Denver metro area, buyers are always looking for an edge to get their offer accepted over the other offers.
So sometimes they are willing to offer you a Post Closing Occupancy Agreement. That’s the secret – a Post Closing Occupancy Agreement. Some buyers will even allow you to live there rent free for up to 59 days after closing.
Give me a call or send me a text to find out more about how this can work to make your home selling experience much less stressful. Vickie Hall, 303-944-1153
