Market Facts:
The April Denver home market saw more homes available for
sale and more new homes coming onto the market, homes going under contract
increased, and homes closed at increased prices. Buyer demand continues to outpace the homes
available for sale. Buyers are becoming
more creative in their offers and Sellers are looking at all options. Multiple offers, bidding wars, and appraisal
and inspection issues continue to impact the home market. As always, be prepared.
Advice to Sellers:
Now is the time to sell as the Denver home market is a
Seller’s market, is strong, is healthy, and Buyer demand is greater than the
number of homes for sale. As a Seller,
you must know your home’s value and then have it listed at the right
price. The Denver home market continues
to be creative. Be prepared for multiple
offers, bidding opportunities, and requests for incentives. Buyers look for a lasting impression such as
curb appeal, energy efficient lighting, de-cluttered space, staged, and valued
home improvements.
Manage your expectations, be flexible, be civil, and accept
the offer that works best for you the Seller.
Seller preparation includes a good pricing comparison
analysis, instructions on staging, what are the top improvements and a
conversation on how the market functions.
As such, the homeowner looking to sell a home needs a professional who
is a local expert, knowledgeable, and can assist in the Professional plan to
sell one’s home.
Advice to Buyers:
Now is the time to buy as the Denver home market is strong
and healthy. Buyer demand is greater
than the number of homes for sale. As a
Buyer, make the offer that works for you and is the offer that you can complete
to close the transaction. The Denver
home market is becoming very creative again with multiple offers, bidding
opportunities, and price appreciation.
Similar to the above comments, be prepared to act quickly. Be aware that Sellers are becoming concerned
with Buyers who make a competitive offer, get the home under contract, and
later terminate the contract.
Buyers should give consideration to be in a secondary
position on a home because the market is seeing an increase of contract terminations. Create your home buying plan and stick to it.
Know what you want in a home, where you want to live, and
what price range you can afford. Complete
the pre-qualification process so you know the price range that you qualify for when
you are purchasing a home. Be prepared, manage
your expectations, and be open to looking at the entire Denver market. Reach out to a Professional today about your best
options and opportunities to participate and succeed in the purchase of your
“Dream” home.
