]]> Market Fun Facts (01/03/24): Happy New Year!  As we kick-off 2024 what will the real estate market look like?  To answer this question NeXstep continues to monitor inventory levels across the 6 County Denver Metro. For the third month in a row we see a decrease in inventory levels; active listings are fell by 1,351 listing to a total of 5,241 active homes for sale.  A similar trend is found in sold homes as we dropped 242 sold homes this past month to a total of 2,656 sold units.  However, absorption rates dropped slightly to 2.09 months.  Interestingly, we are starting off the year with very similar number to 2023 when we had 5,210 Active Homes, 2,725 Sold Homes, & and absorption rate just under 2 months.  Jefferson county remains the lowest absorption rate at 1.40 months and Broomfield county has the highest rate at 2.75 months. Denver County leads with the most active listings at 1,201 and Broomfield County continues to have the fewest listings at 140.  Current publications indicate a balanced real estate market would need a minimum of 18,000 listings.  Thinking about selling…let’s talk!

What do these numbers mean? To help understand what these numbers mean to our local markets we are now including the number of sold comps during the past 30 days or 1 month.  Looking at our sold numbers over the past month allows us to calculate a monthly absorption rate.  An absorption rate tells us how many months it would take to sell off our entire inventory should we have no new listings.  A balanced market is considered 6 months.

County Sold Active Absorption Rate
Adams 515 1196 2.32
Arapahoe 604 1060 1.75
Broomfield 51 140 2.75
Denver 546 1201 2.20
Douglas 443 949 2.14
Jefferson 497 695 1.40
Total 2,656 5,241 2.09

Buyer Activity Picked Up in October
November 8, 2023

High mortgage rates and elevated home prices continue to impact the Denver metro housing market. The national average 30-year mortgage rate spiked to a 23-year high at the end of October, according to Freddie Mac and the median price for a Denver area home inched up 2% to $580,000. As a result, home sales lagged for the second consecutive month. The number of home closings was down 6% from last year. Year to date, home sales in the 11-county metro area are down 19% from last year.

In October, Denver Metro sellers added 3,803 new listings to the market, 1% fewer than last year. The number of new listings was down 17% from last month.

On a positive note, buyer activity picked up in October. The number of listings that moved into Pending status in the MLS was 1% higher than last year and 5% higher than last month. Those listings moved off the market in a median of 17 days. Listings are staying on the market a bit longer, which is helping inventory levels inch up. At the close of the month, there were 7538 listings actively available for sale.

The rental market took a breather in October. Throughout the month, 294 properties were leased using REcolorado MLS, 4% less than last month and 1% less than this time last year. The median leased price for those properties remained relatively flat.

Special thanks to Denver Metro Association of Realtors for the market stats/narrative.

]]> Dear Friends,
Often during my day-to-day conversations, I’m asked, “How’s the real estate market?” My response is “It’s never been a better time to buy! Even though the interest rates are higher, you’re not competing with 5 to 10 other offers and our ability to negotiate better terms has significantly increased.” These are just a few reasons to consider buying or selling in 2024 but if you need additional facts please continue reading.
The graphs and charts below, provided by Cole Thimsen, Certified Mortgage Advisor at Fairway Independent Mortgage Corp., supports numerous aspects of why you, your friends and family shouldn’t sit on the sidelines to make your real estate dreams come true!

Why NOW is the BEST Time to Buy

Housing appreciation remains strong with home prices continuing to rise. Even amidst the recent 8%+ interest rates, home values have continued appreciating. Q3 2023 showed all-time high readings in home values, with the annual appreciation rate on track for a 6% increase.

 

 

It’s likely mortgage rates will decrease in 2024. If inflation continues to dissipate and the economy cools or goes into a recession, mortgage rates will likely continue their recent decrease. Historically, mortgage rates decrease during periods of recession.

 

Decreased mortgage rates will drive more buyer demand. There is a tsunami of potential homebuyers sitting on the sidelines waiting for interest rates to drop. For every 1% interest rates decrease, 5 million more homebuyers will qualify to buy. As interest rates drop, more buyers will flood back into the market, driving home prices even higher.
Home values tend to pull back and are at their lowest during the holiday season and winter months. When there are less homebuyers present and would-be sellers are more motivated, homebuyers have a distinct advantage and more opportunity to negotiate favorable home prices and/or seller-paid closing costs.
Seller-paid closing costs offer a significant benefit to homebuyers. Seller-paid closing costs or “seller concessions” can be used to cover a buyer’s closing costs and/or reduce their interest rate and monthly payments. In addition to lowering a buyer’s interest rate for the life of the loan, they can also be used to fund a Temporary Buydown which offers even lower rates and payments during the first few years of homeownership.
There is a true cost to waiting, especially if currently renting. The example below illustrates the “cost of waiting” based on a $400k purchase, 20% down payment, and a conservative 4% annual appreciation rate. The lost amortization (the principal reduction of the loan) and the home’s annual appreciation equate to roughly $20,000/yr. or $1,666/mo.
With the high likelihood of home prices continuing to climb due to low inventory and even more demand, the next few months present a unique opportunity for buyers to have the upper hand when it comes to negotiating home prices and seller concessions, while facing significantly less competition.
Please feel free to call me, Cole or let’s join a three-way call to answer any questions you have! We’re here to help guide you along the way!
All the best,
