Front Range Real Estate Market Report, 2/7/2022

January numbers are out and it’s clear that competition among buyers is strong. Offers that get accepted tend to all have the highest price, inspection waivers, and appraisal gap coverage. Many sellers are also looking for free post-closing occupancy, where they rent back the home for up to two months. Homes are selling for 10 or even 20 percent over the asking price. Outside of Colorado, inventory is also low, so our sellers who are moving out of state are facing stiff competition where they’re moving. In this market, buyers must bring their “A-Game” to every offer.
