A Record Setting Year For Denver Real Estate and Home Sales
2020 was a record-setting year. Brokers wrote more contracts on listings, sending them to the pending status, and more homes closed than any year on record. The number of new listings that hit the market did not keep pace with demand, which made inventory a challenge throughout the year. Highlights for January – December 2020 Strong demand kept prices high with median and average closed prices reaching-time highs. Half of all homes closed sold $450,000 or more. Contracts were written on homes quickly in 2020. The median number of days a home was available for sale in the MLS was 7, which means half of homes for sale were off the market in a week or less.
