There’s been a lot of recent news about the Denver housing market. But metro Denver is not one market. And more negotiating power for buyers does not automatically mean home prices are falling off a cliff.

What we’re actually seeing is a lot more nuance.

Homes are taking longer to sell. Inventory is building a little. And buyers have more room to negotiate things like closing costs, rate buydowns, repairs and, yes, price.

In August, 63% of closings included some kind of seller concession, and 44% of homes had already had a price reduction.

But prices themselves? They’ve been much more resilient than some of the headlines might make you think.

And here’s the part I really want sellers to pay attention to:

The homes that got under contract in their first week ended up selling for about 100% of their original asking price on average.

Homes that sat for 3+ months? About 90% of their original asking price.

That doesn’t mean “price your house low and hope for the best.” It means launching correctly matters. Price, condition, presentation, photography, and marketing all need to come together from day one.

And buyers? This is where things get interesting for you, too.

The best deal isn’t necessarily the house with the biggest price reduction. Sometimes it’s the house where you can negotiate $10K toward closing costs, get a rate buydown, have repairs addressed, and structure the deal in a way that actually makes your monthly payment or cash-to-close work better.

One more reason I don’t love broad “buyer’s market” or “seller’s market” labels:

A home priced at $375,000 and a $5 million home are having VERY different experiences right now. 😂

There’s a market within the market.

So if you’re thinking about buying or selling, don’t just ask me, “What’s the market doing?”

Let’s look at your price range, your neighborhood, and the homes you’re actually competing with.

That’s where the useful information is. If you’re thinking about buying or selling, I’m happy to help you look at the numbers that actually apply to your situation.

It’s very exciting to see a Colorado community for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities! Residents at The Grove at Cottonwood in Broomfield began moving in last month.

More than a decade ago, Marie-Ilene Whitehurst and Karin Jawitz gathered around a kitchen table with a shared concern: What would happen to their children with intellectual and developmental disabi | The communities provide support and connections needed for long-term independence

Sunday resets aren’t just for the house. They’re also for my mindset.

And a little gratitude for the small, special moments goes a very long way.

I’ve been trying to romanticize September by paying more attention to the little moments that might otherwise get lost in the shuffle of a busy week.

Here are the little things that mattered last week. 🤎

Your $50,000 upgrade doesn’t automatically add $50,000 to the value of your home. 😂

The market doesn’t reimburse you dollar-for-dollar for every improvement you make. What matters is what today’s buyers are actually willing to pay for.

Want to know if an upgrade is worth it BEFORE you make it? Reach out, and I’ll give you the numbers!

I’m romanticizing September. 🍂

Not in a “completely reinvent my life” kind of way.

I mean doing one little thing every day that makes an ordinary day feel a little more special.

Today that meant a pumpkin chai latte while I waited for Rhiannon, buying myself flowers just because, and putting on a fall playlist while I cleaned the house.

That’s it.

I think we underestimate how much those little things can change the feeling of a day. I’m already feeling a little more grateful and a lot more relaxed.

So…Day 1 of making September feel a little more special. ❤️

What’s one small thing you can do today just because it makes you happy?
