The Denver Metro housing market opened the year with typical seasonal slowing and steadier pricing, creating a more deliberate environment for both buyers and sellers. Closed listings declined 16% year over year to 1,937 homes, reflecting a slower start compared to last January. Home prices remained stable overall, with the median closed price at $569,000, down just 1% year over year. Attached home prices ticked up slightly to $420,000, while single-family homes dipped to $615,000.
Homes took longer to sell, with median Days in MLS rising to 56 — nine days more than last year — giving buyers more time to evaluate options and negotiate. Attached properties remained on the market longer, with a median of 64 days versus 53 days for single-family homes.
Seller activity increased year over year, with new listings climbing 3% to 4,455. Active inventory also grew 10% to 8,203 homes — about 18 weeks of supply. For sellers, this makes setting the right price even more crucial to attract attention in a busier market.
