#DenverMarketWatch 3/19/2018 The Mood of the Market

IMG_0050Good Morning All You Wonderful People!

We continue to observe a very strong and active market.  Last week, all price points seem to be hitting on all cylinders!  We even saw a property over $8M go under contract setting a new high for the year.

As we do every week, the last seven days of MLS activity is briefly presented for your review.  Now very close to the end of 2018’s Q1, in the coming weeks, we will try to put some perspective on this.

New Listing (1443)  Steady improvement in this category is good!
Back On Market (202)
Price Increase (123)
Price Decrease (501) Let’s keep an eye on this one.  Are interest rates impactful?
Under Contract (1675) WOW, we are killing it!
Withdrawn (92)
Leased (40)
Sold (1176) This is a solid number we would take every week!
Expired (129)

As the story of 2018 unfolds for Denver’s Residential Real Estate Market, let’s not forget, we still have a serious shortage of home for sale.  We would love to come see you.  Sit down at the kitchen table and discuss your future plans.  Failure to plan is a plan for failure, as they say…tc

#DenverMarketWatch 3/12/2018 #GoldenAge

IMG_3698As we approach the end of 2018’s first quarter, there are some notables you should know about.

First, the trend of more Under Contract Listings each week continues to far exceed the number of New Listing each week.

Second, our Sold and Closed Listings remains strong and continues to grow as one would expect.

Finally, with all the hoopla about interest rates increasing, so far, this has been a non-event.  We are keeping a close eye on this one, but in the meantime, let’s hope they will level out and show some status quo.

Below, you will find this week’s numbers.  You can see from my comments, they continue to offer more of the same.

New Listing (1356)  (Too Few; where are the sellers?)
Back On Market (210)
Price Increase (176)
Price Decrease (523)
Under Contract (1736)  (This is a huge number!)
Withdrawn (101)
Leased (39)
Sold (1115)  (This is a sold/strong number.)
Expired (168)

In the coming weeks, I will be addressing some of the reasons we don’t have enough inventory, and why this will continue into the foreseeable future.  In the meantime, let’s take full advantage of what’s in front of us right now and enjoy!  This is truly a Golden Age of Denver Residential Real Estate.

#DenverMarketWatch 3/5/2018 #ShortSupply #It’sAHorseRace

IMG_3698Well, here we are.  It’s once again time for a Monday Market Update!  As you can see below, we have more Under Contracts than New Listings once again this week.  Also, the number of closings was up significantly.  All of these indicators are signs of a very strong market.

Anecdotally, we had 6 written offers on one of our listings over the weekend.  Sellers still look at “cash offers” with smiles on their faces.  Potential buyers gave up their rights to appraisals, inspections and increased earnest money to extravagant levels.  The right house in the right location commands significant market attention.

New Listing (1329)
Back On Market (193)
Price Increase (188)
Price Decrease (534)
Under Contract (1653)
Withdrawn (119)
Leased (41)
Sold (1635)
Expired (326)

As the year unfolds into the weeks ahead, please don’t underestimate how important it will be to get on the market earlier in the year than later in the year.  Please give us a ring.  Thank you!

IMG_3655WOW!  I just can’t shout loud enough to be heard.  Over the last week, once again, we continue to put more under contract than we add new listings; by a HUGE margin.  This is clearly being demonstrated in our “core neighborhoods” with multiple offers still ruling the day.  Buyers are finding out about new listings simply on whispers.

Does that garage sale mean they are selling?  It’s not quite that easy, but we have stopped at a lot of garage sales over the last couple of months.  Maybe it’s true.  Maybe we do need a bigger town…

Look at these numbers below:

New Listing (1015) We put 500 more under contract than we listed.
Back On Market (174)
Price Increase (157)
Price Decrease (480)
Under Contract (1502) We are not bringing enough new listings to the the market!
Withdrawn (106)
Leased (28)
Sold (993) Another great week of closings.
Expired (141)

Long story short, if you scroll back over the last 8 weeks and catch up on these posts, you will find this trend is the “normal” in our market so far in 2018.  We’ll keep you posted, but you need to follow us!

7148 S. Niagara Court Centennial, CO 80112

We couldn’t be more proud to present a new listing to the market.  Showings start soon, so stay tuned.  Updates will be posted here.

NiagaraRarely does one find an active listing in the quaint enclave of Homestead on the Parkway.  Surrounded by 120 acres of dedicated SSPRD Open Space, included in the Homestead in the Willows HOA with access to 3 pools, 8 tennis courts and miles of scenic greenbelt pathways, this truly is a gem.

So, without further adieu, may we present 7148 S. Niagara Court Centennial, CO 80112

Good Morning Everyone!

Once again, New Listings are up for the week, BUT can you see it?  Under Contracts are killing it!

Never fear, Dee and I have 4 new listings #ComingSoon.  #GreewoodHills, #HomesteadontheParkway, #RidgeviewHills and #HarvardGulch.

As you can see, we are doing our best to keep up with demand, but we need more active listings!

New Listing (1144)  Nice add to supply…
Back On Market (176)
Price Increase (121)
Price Decrease (474)
Under Contract (1447)  WOW, another HUGE week of activity!
Withdrawn (114)
Leased (34)
Sold (941)  Closings are down from last week, but still strong.
Expired (151)

When all is said and done, the big picture still looks extremely bright for the Denver Residential Market.  That being said, there are still going to be pockets where market conditions are stronger and weaker than the averages.  Please keep this in mind, and don’t be hesitant to give us a call and hear our take on the Denver Market.

Denver Market Watch 2/13/2018 #Denver

22334 E Idyllwilde Dr Parker-print-034-39-Koi Pond-2700x1800-300dpiCan you believe it?  923 New Listings this week with 1,500 Under Contract…  This is living proof, listing earlier in the year brings faster sales and higher prices.  As my mother would always say, “Make hay…”.  So, what does this mean?

If you are a potential seller, call us!  Call us sooner rather than later.  Low supply makes your home stand out.

We wrote an offer this weekend in Castle Rock.  The list price was $700,000.  We offered $715,000 and lost out to a buyer offering well over $730,000.  No question this was a great house.  Buyers are ravenous for the right house in the right location at the right price.  Timing, Timing Timing!

New Listing (923)  This is a shortage!
Back On Market (188)
Price Increase (134)
Price Decrease (502)
Under Contract (1500)  This is a super week.  String 4 of these together, and you have a record month.
Withdrawn (87)
Leased (28)
Sold (863)
Expired (134)

2018 Should be your year to “Make it happen”.  If you are contemplating moving up, making a first time buyer purchase or moving to more accomodating surrounds, let’s talk.  Call sooner rather than later.  Timing, Timing, Timing…

By the way, We just listed one this morning where we sat down with the sellers almost a year ago to develop a plan.

LISTINGS COMING SOON:

Harvard Gulch Golf Course:  Around $500,000

Homestead on the Parkway:  Around $1,250,000

Orchard Hills:  Around: $1,600,000

Ridgeview Hills North:  Around $420,000
