2019 ended with 5,037 active listings, down 9.68
percent from 2018; representing 41 percent of metro Denver’s 30-year
annual average of 12,262 active listings. For historical perspective,
active listings reached their highest point in July 2006 with 31,989
listings. During that period of record highs, months of inventory stood at
6.6 months which implied a robust homebuyer’s market. The record-low month
was in December 2017 with 3,854 listings. A year later, that number
increased 44.7 percent to 5,577. This growth in housing inventory was due
in part to sluggish sales and a higher number of new listings entering the
market. According to the numbers, this trend started to reverse itself
toward the midpoint of 2019 with November representing the first month in
the previous 13 that showed a decrease in listings compared to the
previous year.
2019 also established a new historical high and marked the eighth
consecutive year of price gains. In 2019 the average home price was
$486,695 and the median home price was $420,000, up 2.85 percent and 2.46
percent respectively compared to 2018. Over the last 30 years the average home price in metro Denver has
increased a staggering 417 percent!
The DMAR monthly report also includes statistics and analyses in its
supplemental “Luxury Market Report” (properties sold for $1 million or
greater), “Signature Market Report” (properties sold between $750,000 and
$999,999), “Premier Market Report” (properties sold between $500,000 and
$749,999), and “Classic Market” (properties sold between $300,000 and
$499,999). In 2019, 2,421 homes sold and closed for $1 million or greater,
up nearly 12 percent from 2018. The closed dollar volume in the luxury
segment was $3.74 billion, up 13.46 percent compared to 2018.
The highest-priced single-family home that sold in December was the
highest-priced home sale historically on record in metro Denver at
$11,625,000, representing six bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and 15,473 above
ground square feet in Englewood. The highest-priced condo sale in December
was $2,250,000 representing four bedrooms, four bathrooms and 3,152 above
ground square feet in Denver. Notably, the highest-priced condo sale in
2019 was in January at $10,750,000 representing three bedrooms, five
bathrooms and 6,295 above ground square feet in Denver.

The Luxury Market was the only housing segment to see a year-over-year
decrease in average and median days on market. Homes priced $1 million and
up saw a decrease in average days on market from 68 in 2018 to 60 in 2019,
down 11.76 percent, and has notably been decreasing since 2015 when it
stood at 87 days.
2019 had a staggering 56.52 percent increase in the sale of luxury condos
priced $1 million and over compared to the previous year, from 184 to 288.
Furthermore, in 2019, condos spent an average of 12 fewer days on the
market compared to that of single-family homes, though the average sales
prices were close.
