As the Denver real estate market
continues to evolve and change with the weather, the question on
everyone’s mind is whether or not we are in a buyer’s market.
Traditionally, a market with less than three months of inventory is
considered a seller’s market. In direct relation to that, a market
with more than six months of inventory is considered a buyer’s
market, which means that three to six months of inventory is defined
as a balanced market. These benchmarks help define the Denver Metro
current market, which is notably changing.
Currently, the $100,000 to $199,999 and $1 million and over segments
for detached homes are pushing the three percent threshold, with
2.75 percent and 2.62 percent, respectively. The $1 million and over
segment for attached homes is at 2.83 months of inventory. Using
months of inventory as a metric indicates that Denver Metro is
moving toward a balanced market.
Buyers can now take time to find the right house and negotiate the
purchase price, inspection-related repairs and appraisal values.
While interest rates are higher than at the beginning of the year,
some buyers are getting accustomed to the increased rates and are
utilizing available marketplace tools. However, for many sellers, it
likely feels like the rug has been pulled out from underneath them.
Price reductions are rising, while active listings at month end rose
10.72 percent to 7,683. Pending sales declined 15.41 percent for
both detached and attached homes month-over-month, which directly
relates to a 6.38 percent decline in sales volume month-over-month.
With kids back in school, the Luxury Market sellers focused on
getting their homes on the market, and it showed. New luxury
listings were up 18.86 percent from August, with a total of 649
homes priced over $1 million hitting the market in September. The
attached Luxury Market saw a massive increase in new listings, up a
notable 66.67 percent from the prior month. With 5,962 new listings
hitting so far this year, the Luxury Market is enjoying the highest
amount of inventory in years.
Luxury buyers also have more time to decide which luxury home to
buy. Both detached and attached markets saw a significant increase
in the average days in the MLS from August, up 31.82 percent or 29
days for detached, and 40 percent or 35 days for attached. This
slowing market is echoed in the drop in pending sales in September,
which decreased by 16.35 percent for detached homes and 8.33 percent
for attached. The spring frenzied bidding wars also seem to have
subsided: the close-price-to-list-price ratio dropped below 100
percent again this month, to 98.21 percent for detached and 99.30
for attached.
Although the detached Luxury Market enjoyed an annual appreciation
from a price per square foot perspective of 9.41percent and a flat
month-over-month appreciation, the attached market suffered a
decline in annual appreciation of 0.18 percent and an even bigger
decline month-over-month, by 5.26 percent.
