May Market Minute

Housing Market MinuteMay, 2017

Pending home sales were down slightly in March, a by product of continuing low inventory and high demand.
The average sales price for April single family detached homes came to $471,145 and $312,320 for Condos and Town-homes.  This is a study increase month over month since the beginning of the year.

In my last issue I talked about the top 5 factors driving our hot housing market.  Two of the reasons mentioned were people moving here and job growth.  I happen to have a home for rent here in Englewood, CO and after renting this home since 2004 I have never had so many out of state applicants.  Many of them flying in for the week to buy or rent in the short week they are here.  Although not a representative sample, my everyday life seems to be evidence coinciding with the report I posted last month entitled “Is the Denver Real-estate Market in a Bubble?”.
Last but maybe least on my list is a Spring Cleaning checklist.  Items I will realistically never get to, but maybe you are more on top of spring cleaning then me!  🙂  Happy Winter (I mean Spring!)
