Denver-metro and Boulder luxury markets show increase The luxury real estate market remains robust in Colorado, with inventory increasing across the board in March — a welcome change from the declining inventory levels of luxury homes entering the market over the past several months. A strong first quarter is occurring based on Colorado’s improved local economy, combined with climbing homeowner equity within the residential luxury market, which bodes well for the spring selling and buying season. “Both inventory and sales took a big jump in the month of March,” said LIV Sotheby’s International Realty president Scott Webber. “292 luxury listings came on the market and there were 119 sales. Although the average sales price dropped slightly, the average price per square foot continued its steady climb.” In Denver metro, the number of luxury homes sold (sales over $1 million) demonstrated a significant increase year-over-year and month-over-month, with 119 homes with a price tag of more than $1 million sold in March 2017, over 73 sold in March 2016, a 63-percent increase, according to data released by LIV Sotheby’s International Realty and based on information from REColorado. Month-over-month, 119 homes with a price tag of more than $1 million sold in March 2017, over 57 sold in February 2017, a 109-percent increase. Inventory increased, with 42 percent more new listings entering the market yearover-year; 292 in March 2017 over just 206 in March 2016, and the number of active listings increased by 10 percent in March 2017, to 760, up from 688 active listings in March 2016. The average price per square foot demonstrated a balance year-over-year at $420, and average selling price decreased
slightly, 4 percent, year-over-year from $1.5 million in March 2016 to $1.45 million in March 2017.
