Denver Market Update
Real Estate Update – September 2026
2025 Summary:
- Average price is ~$675,000, down 2% from 2024
- Days on Market were 45, up 5 days from 2024
- Homes Sold in December were 3,531, down 1%
- We are in one of the bigger price dips in the last 52 years (even at -2%). See the chart below to see what happens next!
- Showings per listing are at the lowest level in over 8 years (chart below)
2026 Expectations:
- Home prices will remain +5%.
- Interest rates are currently in the 5.75% – 6.25% range. Historically, this is EXCELLENT! I would be stunned if we ever see 3% again in my lifetime. Don’t wait for it.
- I anticipate a busy spring (February – May) and then a quiet summer, similar to the last few years.
- Buyers: It’s a good time to buy. Lots of inventory and price reductions. Seller concessions, Free 1+ year rate buy-downs. Free refinances, etc.
- Sellers: With the amount of inventory and lack of demand, Sellers need to be aggressively priced and realistic about what price will get their home sold. Remember, above everything else, it’s the right PRICE that sells a home.

“Working with Drew and his team was a very positive experience. In fact, they were so good, I will always turn to them as my real estate professionals! I was a bit nervous about their knowledge of my area when we started the process as they aren’t located directly in Castle Rock, however, Drew said they knew the area and I trust Drew. As it turned out, they really knew the area! The neighborhood research provided was accurate and the sale price they suggested was exactly on target. Our house so…
“We are so grateful that Drew was referred to us. We found him to be responsive, knowledgeable, and patient. He kept in constant contact with us during our search. Most importantly, once we made an offer he and his staff were so very helpful in each of the steps leading up to and including the closing. We would highly recommend Drew Schneider.”
