🏡 EAGLE COUNTY REAL ESTATE UPDATE | September 17, 2026

Thinking about buying your first home—or making your next move? Here’s a look at mortgage rates, homebuyer assistance, and our local market.

🔑 WHERE ARE MORTGAGE RATES?
Freddie Mac’s national averages released today are:
• 30-year fixed: 6.95%
• 15-year fixed: 6.26%

These are weekly averages, not a personalized rate quote or APR. Your rate will depend on your credit, loan type, down payment, and lender. Source: Freddie Mac⁠

💰 HELP WITH YOUR HOME PURCHASE
Eligible buyers may have options to help with upfront costs:

• Eagle County: The county’s FHA down payment assistance loan offers up to 5% of the purchase price, capped at $42,500. Other county assistance programs serve eligible buyers using different mortgage types. These are repayable loans, with borrower contributions and program requirements. Explore Eagle County assistance⁠

• Colorado Housing and Finance Authority: CHFA offers eligible buyers using a qualifying CHFA mortgage a grant of up to 3% of the first mortgage amount, capped at $25,000, with no repayment required. Higher mortgage interest rates apply when using this assistance, so compare the total cost with your lender. Explore CHFA assistance⁠

Eligibility, funding, and lender approval must be confirmed.

📍 WHAT’S HAPPENING LOCALLY?
Realtor.com’s August 2026 Eagle County data shows active listings up approximately 9% from a year earlier, with homes selling about 2.65% below asking price on average. That suggests potential negotiating opportunities for buyers—and reinforces the importance of thoughtful pricing for sellers. Conditions vary by neighborhood and price range. View the market report⁠

Whether you’re buying or selling, let’s talk about your goals. I can help you explore local options and connect with a lender to understand which programs may fit your situation.

Want to know the #1 thing homeowners regret when they sell without an agent? It’s that they didn’t price their house correctly for their current market.

Exciting News for Eagle County Homebuyers!

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Phase II of Eagle County Good Deeds, an expansion of the program introduced in 2021 to tackle rising housing costs and expand for-sale deed-restricted home availability. With median home prices hovering around $1.6M, Phase II is designed to help locals achieve homeownership while preserving long-term affordability for current and future generations.

What’s New in Good Deeds Phase II?
✨ Increased Maximum Purchase Price: Now up to $1.25M (previously $850K).
🤝 Community Partner Program: A collaborative effort with local communities and organizations to provide a 30% buy-down on eligible properties (15% from Housing Eagle County + 15% from partners, capped at $375K).

Key Program Details:
📍 Open to Eligible Households in Eagle County.
🏠 Buyers must use the property as their primary residence.
💵 Buyers must contribute at least 3% of the purchase price.
✅ Compatible with our Down Payment Assistance program.

A huge thank you to our first community partner, the Town of Avon, for their dedication and collaboration! Together with Housing Eagle County, Avon played a key role in developing the framework for the Community Partner Program. This collaboration was instrumental in creating the new initiative, demonstrating the power of regional partnerships and setting a strong precedent for other municipalities in Eagle County to address housing challenges collectively.

Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected future for Eagle County!
