The result is a segmented market where outcomes vary depending on location, price point, and strategy.

Expert Perspective: This year’s economic and consumer uncertainty is reflected in housing activity. Sellers need to align expectations with today’s realities: overpricing or underpreparing a home often leads to longer days on market and price reductions. Buyers, on the other hand, have more options and more time to make decisions.
Detached homes saw new listings slow by 13.57% while pending sales dipped 2.28%. Attached homes had an increase in new listings and pending contracts, yet inventory fell slightly, showing steady absorption. Both segments recorded higher median days in MLS—20 for detached and 39 for attached homes.
For Sellers: Presentation and strategic pricing are critical. Homes that are well-prepared and accurately priced can still sell quickly, but buyers are discerning and cost-conscious.
For Buyers: Increased inventory, slower competition, and stable pricing create opportunity. The market is segmented, and while some homes still sell quickly, others linger—giving buyers time to negotiate and find the right fit.
Looking Ahead: Expectations, strategy, and adaptability will continue to drive success. Real-time market awareness—not past assumptions—is the key to making confident decisions in today’s Denver market.
