Welcome
May is here, and Denver is bursting with spring energy: blooming trees, sunny days (and rain) perfect for patio living, and a real estate market that's hitting its seasonal stride. Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, investing, or just curious about what's happening locally, I'm thrilled to keep you up to date on your personal situation.
Market Snapshot
The Denver metro area continues its healthy, balanced 2026 market. With more inventory and active buyers, we're seeing solid activity without the frenzy of past years. Recent March data shows:
- Median sales price held steady around $575,000 to $590,000 metro-wide, with single-family homes closer to $615,000 to $645,000. Prices remain remarkably consistent with recent years, with modest changes rather than big swings.
- Pending contracts rose strongly (up about 6.5% year-over-year in March), signaling buyer confidence heading into peak season. Closed sales were up modestly as well.
- Active inventory sits around 13,000+ listings, with months of supply around 3. This gives buyers real choices while rewarding well-priced, move-in-ready seller homes.
- Days on market averaged 47 days, giving everyone breathing room to make thoughtful decisions. Well-updated homes that are priced well are still moving much faster than this.
Takeaway for you
Spring 2026 feels purposeful. Buyers have negotiating power on price, condition, and terms, especially on condos and townhomes where inventory is a bit higher. Sellers who prepare thoughtfully (staging, pricing right) are getting great results fast.
May often brings peak inventory and buyer energy, perfect timing whether you're listing or searching. The key is strategy: smart pricing, great presentation, and knowing your numbers. I'm here to handle the details so you can focus on what matters most.
