Real talk on the September numbers for the Denver metro.

Inventory hit its highest September level since 2011, and at 4.76 months we're right in balanced-market territory. The median price dipped to $575,000, but single-family values have held steady year to date. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell, and rates climbed late in the month, so October and November will tell us more.

If you're buying, this is a season where preparation and negotiating can matter more than timing. If you're selling, pricing for today's market is the whole game.

Want to know what this means for your neighborhood or your home? Send me a message or call 720.520.1748.

Could U.S. Rates Stay Higher in 2027?
As we look toward 2027, many are wondering whether interest rates will finally start to ease—or if we'll be living with higher borrowing costs for a while yet. Persistent inflation and those stubborn long-term Treasury yields have made a quick drop in rates far from a sure thing. The Federal Reserve is walking a tricky line right now, weighing the risks of inflation against some clear signs that the economy's momentum is slowing. For those of us in real estate, higher long-term yields can keep mortgages and business loans expensive, directly impacting both homebuyers and sellers, as well as the broader commercial market. Given all the uncertainty—between rates, fiscal pressures, and inflation—investors seem to be leaning toward a more balanced, cautious approach. With over eight years of experience helping clients navigate Denver’s market, I see firsthand how these bigger economic trends ripple through our neighborhoods and your real estate plans.

Waiting until fall won't make homes more affordable, but here's what will
I’m hearing from a lot of folks wondering if waiting until fall will make homes more affordable—unfortunately, that’s not likely. The income required for a median-priced home in the US has climbed to over $120,000, and with mortgage rates hovering around 6.5% alongside steadily rising prices, holding off isn’t making things easier. Most buyers are putting down 6-9%, though there are options for lower or even zero down payments. In my experience, the best way to approach this market is with careful preparation and a clear plan. Having walked clients through these challenges—drawing on both my real estate expertise and contractor’s eye for value—I know that being ready is what ultimately puts you in the strongest position.

U.S. Home Prices Ease Across Major Metros
We’re seeing a noticeable shift in the housing market: in Mid-Q3, the price per square foot dropped year-over-year in 36 out of the 50 largest U.S. metro areas. Nationally, this measure was down about 2% compared to last year—now marking ten consecutive months of cooling. Sellers are starting to meet buyers more in the middle, adjusting asking prices more readily as the market lost steam toward the end of the quarter. High mortgage rates are making affordability a real challenge, especially in markets that saw big jumps during the pandemic. Many of those boom-era areas are now seeing some of their gains recede, with inventory sitting above pre-pandemic levels. Drawing on my years as both a real estate agent and former contractor here in Denver, I’ve been helping clients interpret these trends so they can navigate changing conditions with confidence.

Homebuyers Gain Opportunities as Prices Ease in Major US Cities
We’re seeing a shift in the housing market: in August, home prices per square foot dropped year over year in 36 of the 50 largest U.S. metro areas—including notable declines in Austin, Tampa, and Memphis. Median list prices decreased across the Northeast, South, and West, while the Midwest held steady, a pattern that reflects the impact of today’s higher mortgage rates. As someone who works closely with both buyers and sellers, I find these trends especially important to watch. My background as a contractor gives me an eye for how changing prices can affect real opportunities in our local Denver market. Staying informed helps us all make smart, confident decisions, even as the broader landscape evolves.

The best and worst states for first-time home buyer assistance in 2026
Navigating first-time home buying can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to understanding the different assistance programs available across states. In 2026, these programs range from generous forgivable loans and grants to more limited, repayable options—each with their own terms, income requirements, and even benefits like student debt relief. Drawing from my experience both as a real estate agent and a former contractor, I help clients break down these often confusing details, so you can make informed decisions about the opportunities in your area. Whether you're dreaming of your first place in Denver or just starting to explore your options, it pays to know what's out there—and to have someone in your corner who can help you navigate the process with confidence.

Homes in Highly Rated School Zones Cost 35% More Than the Average U.S. Home--But the Premium Is Much Smaller in Some Parts of the Country
One of the realities I often discuss with clients is the impact of school zones on home prices. Homes located in top-rated school zones are, on average, 35% more expensive than the typical U.S. home. To put that in perspective, these homes generally require a household income of $159K, compared to $118K for the median home. Only about 13% of homes in these areas are actually affordable for the typical earner, and the premium you pay can change a lot depending on the metro area. As someone who’s spent years guiding buyers through Denver’s diverse neighborhoods—and drawing on my background as a contractor—I always encourage clients to weigh these numbers alongside their own priorities. It’s not just about finding the right house; it’s about understanding the value behind every decision.
