Colorado Real Estate Shifts from Seller's to Buyer's Market
What happened
The residential real estate market in Colorado has transitioned over the last three years from a seller’s market to a buyer’s market. Experts note that the days of homes selling well above asking price are over, and buyers now set the pace for sales. In Boulder County, there is significant inventory in the luxury niche, with over 200 listings having a median asking price of $3.2 million.

Why it matters
The market shift means that sellers who price ambitiously may struggle to find buyers, as the current market does not support previous high demand. For example, during the week of September 8-13, there were no sales in the $3 million range in Boulder County, and sellers are reporting that big chunks are coming off listing prices.
Real estate trends are reshaping in Colorado.
