Denver Real Estate News – October 2024
Why Trying to Time the Denver Real Estate Market is a Fool’s Errand
If you’ve been holding off on buying or selling a home in the Denver metro area because you’re waiting for the “perfect time,” it’s time to rethink your strategy. Trying to time the market is a gamble that even the pros can’t win consistently. The reality is that no one can predict when prices will hit rock bottom or peak. Instead, the smartest real estate moves are made when they align with your goals and personal situation—not by chasing market trends. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or just looking for a change, now may be the right time to make your move.
In the Denver metro, we’ve seen a slight dip in home prices, with the average close price dropping 2.47% from $689,616 in September of last year, to $672,600 in September of this year. Meanwhile, the average days a home stays on the market increased by 5.41% from 37 days to 39 days. New listings have remained stable at 5,053, while pending sales have increased by 3.64%, reaching 3,761. Active listings have grown slightly by 3.65% to 11,115 month-over-month— but a notable 45.69% year-over-year rise.
