FEBRUARY 2022 DENVER MARKET STATS

FEBRUARY 2022 METRO DENVER STATISTICS

All comparisons made to February 2021

The impact of rising mortgage rates is coming, and the monthly payment increase associated with the change will be felt mainly with buyers, putting into question their ability to purchase this year. In addition, iThe market needs more inventory and we are starting to see a small increase in the number of homes available. The number of new listings in 2022 is the lowest we’ve seen since 2009, but we are hopeful we will see overall inventory continue to rise as interest rates increase.
