The 5,301 active listings at
September’s month-end represented the lowest amount of active housing
inventory available on record for any month of September by 2,215
properties. This translates into the toughest market to buy a home in
metro-Denver’s history!
In September 2020, there were 3,041 single-family homes available for
sale, a decrease from the previous low of 5,693 in September 2017. The
median days on market in the entire residential market was six, which
was three days lower than the previous record set in September 2015 and
2016. For both single-family and condo homes, there were more closed and
pending transactions than ever before reaching 5,850 homes that sold and
6,376 homes in pending status.
Housing inventory can’t keep up with the high level of homebuyer demand.
This is further evidenced in that the months of inventory hit an
all-time low at 0.91 months, signifying a very strong seller’s market.
The previous record low was this past August 2020 at 0.92 months.
Furthermore, the median home price for both single-family and condo
homes hit a record-breaking high at $510,000 and $334,752 respectively.
The total sales volume of $3.15 billion represents the highest amount
for any September on record and the third-highest month of all time.
These records, along with various other contributing factors, set the
tone for why metro Denver is increasingly such a competitive market.
The DMAR 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 Report” (properties sold between
$300,000 and $499,999). In September 2020, 336 homes sold and closed for
$1 million or greater, down 10.64 percent month over month and up 80.65
percent year over year. The closed dollar volume in the luxury segment
in September was nearly $514.1 million, down 12.66 percent month over
month and up 72.43 percent year over year. Year to date, the Luxury
Market has 15.1 percent more sales volume than 2019.
Year over year, 80.65 percent more luxury homes sold in September. Year
over year, 87.2 percent more single-family homes closed. The luxury
condo market is also still showing signs of strength with 31.82 percent
more sold compared to 2019.
Compared to last year, new listings were up 25.84 percent in the Luxury
Market while pending listings were up a whopping 116.15 percent in
September. Single-family luxury homes were also hot in September with a
125.3 percent increase in pending sales compared to this time last year.
The luxury condo market was just as hot with a 57.69 percent increase in
pending sales going under contract from one year ago.
The highest-priced single-family home sold in September was $5.5
million, representing five bedrooms, seven bathrooms and 9,324 above
ground square feet in Cherry Hills Village. The highest-priced condo
sold was $2.65 million, representing four bedrooms, six bathrooms and
4,870 above ground square feet in Denver.
