April 2025 Market Recap: Confidence Builds in the Denver Metro Real Estate Market
April 2025 brought a noticeable uptick in market activity across the Denver metro area, hinting at growing confidence among both buyers and sellers. As we step further into the busy spring season, the numbers show a dynamic shift that presents opportunities—especially for those who are well-prepared.
At Corken + Company, we keep a close eye on the data so our clients—whether buying, selling, or investing—can move forward with confidence. Here’s what we’re seeing this month:
📈 Median Close Price Climbs
The median close price for residential properties (detached and attached) reached $607,000, a 1.51% increase from the previous month. This steady growth suggests continued buyer demand, particularly for well-priced, well-presented homes.
🔑 Sales and Volume Surge
April saw 3,883 closed sales, a 4.63% increase month-over-month. This resulted in a total sales volume of $2.81 billion, rising 8.36%. This bump reflects an energized market with buyers returning after a slow winter season.
🏘️ Inventory Grows—But So Do Listings
Active listings surged to 11,964—a significant 22.53% increase, offering more choices for buyers. Simultaneously, new listings rose to 7,062 (+10.78%), a sign that sellers are also recognizing market momentum and re-entering confidently.
📊 Months of Inventory and Days on Market
We’re seeing 3.08 months of inventory, which is a 10.79% increase. While still technically a seller’s market, the increased supply gives buyers a bit more breathing room. However, homes are still moving quickly—median days in the MLS dropped to just 13, down 23.53% from the previous month.
📝 A Slight Dip in Pending Sales
One noteworthy point: pending sales dipped slightly to 4,349, a 2.27% decrease. This could be a temporary pause as buyers adjust to higher inventory levels or reassess financial strategies.
What This Means for You
-
Sellers: Now is a strong time to list. Buyer activity is healthy, and homes that are well-prepared and competitively priced are still selling quickly.
-
Buyers: You have more options than we’ve seen in months. With inventory up and competition slightly lower, it’s a great window to find the right home before prices climb further.
-
Investors: The increase in both volume and price indicates continued appreciation potential. Strategic acquisitions now could yield solid long-term value.
