This tells a lot and according to the Denver Post our average new mortgage rate is the highest in months!!!

Not sure I like to see Denver in the news for this but remember every market is a great market for someone!!!

Five housing markets led the nation in price cuts in April 2025, with some seeing reductions on nearly one-third of listings amid weak buyer demand.

JUST WHAT WE THOUGHT!

Why housing construction can’t grow
at current demand levels
What's happening: The U.S. Census Bureau reported that housing starts fell to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.465 million in April, with single-family starts down to 930,000. Builders are managing 121,000 completed homes for sale as demand stays flat, limiting incentives to expand construction in 2026.

Why this matters: While new home sales are still at elevated levels compared to pre-pandemic days, they’re not growing. The number of completed units for sale has stayed relatively high, meaning there is too much unsold supply for builders to commit to many more projects.

📊 Just in - Housing Market Report

Mortgage rates just dropped again.

✔ Buyers are reappearing
✔ Inventory is rising
✔ Prices are softening
✔ Foreclosure activity is climbing

This is not chaos.
This is a reset.

And resets reward people who move early.

If you wait for the headlines to say “now is the time”…
The opportunity may already be gone.

Cliffnotes – Living in Colorado Live

Metro Denver apartment rents flattened in Q1 2026 after declining for three years.
Average rent: $1,758/month, slightly up from last quarter but down $61 from a year ago.
Landlord concessions remain strong: 4–5 weeks free rent common.
Effective rents (after incentives) are down 8.6% year-over-year.
Vacancy remains elevated: 7.5% stabilized / 10.9% including new lease-ups.
New supply is still coming, helping keep renters in a stronger position.

Bottom Line:
Denver renters still have leverage as supply stays high and landlords compete for tenants.
