5 Tips to Be the Winning Buyer for Your Denver Home

If you’re buying a Denver home, be forewarned: this is not last year’s housing market and the rules for buyers are shifting with the housing turnaround. Here are five new tenets that all serious buyers should heed. Skip the Lowball Offer – In this improving market, you’ll do better asking the seller for concessions such as help with closing costs or paying for needed repairs. Making an offer far below asking price can at best prevent price negotiation and at worst kill the deal altogether. Savvy Denver home sellers will just move to the next buyer in line. Pre-Approval is… Read More »

Higher Rental Rates Are Good News for Denver Investment Property Owners

The numbers bear it out. People really do want to live in Denver  over other places in the country. Nothing shows this more clearly than the increased demand for rental units, the large uptick in rental charges, and the plunging apartment vacancy rate in theDenver area. A report from the Apartment Association of Metro Denver and the Colorado Division of Housing says the average rent for a metro Denver apartment had a 4.5 percent year-over-year increase from Q1 2011 to Q1 2012, the largest jump for any quarter since 2002. In dollars, this equates to average rents growing from $911… Read More »

Stealth Tactics for Buying a Denver Home

If you’re hunting for real estate in Denver, you may need to consider a new tactic: stealth. In markets where available homes have dwindled or listings come and go quickly, some home buyers are skipping the MLS and working behind the scenes with agents and/or directly with sellers. This is particularly true in Denver, which is second in the country for the shortest time on the market for home listings. Homes in Denver are on the market for a mere 33 days, well below the 89-day national median. There are just too few homes in the area to meet the… Read More »

METRO DENVER REAL ESTATE MARKET UPDATE – APRIL 2012

The Market is Shifting Buyers are coming out of the woodwork looking for homes, but not finding much to choose from, especially in the under $300,000 price range.  We are counseling buyers in this price range to be ready to jump quickly on any house that comes on the market that meets their criteria.  That means being pre-approved for a loan, have earnest money ready, and being ready to make a quick decision.  This price range is no longer a buyers’ market; it is a sellers’ market, with many properties getting multiple offers within days of being placed on the… Read More »

Bidding Wars Mean Good Things for Denver Housing Market

Attention anyone who’s currently hunting for a Denver home. The buyer’s market is on its way out, home prices are starting to rise, and you might just find yourself in a bidding war for the house you’ve chosen. The last time bidding wars were common was back in 2006; then the buyer’s market took hold and most Denver home sellers had to settle for whatever they were offered, including lowball bids. But real estate markets in places like Denver, Seattle, Boston, and Washington DC are reporting that bidding wars have begun to happen again, especially in the lower price ranges…. Read More »

Hispanic Homebuyers Could Help Denver and the Nation

A new report by the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals suggests that the country’s Latino population may play a huge part in turning around the housing market. This is great news for potential homebuyers in Denver and other U.S. cities. This report, “The State of Hispanic Home Ownership 2011,” shows that Latinos are poised to become a growing force in the housing market. Their purchasing power reached $1.1 trillion in 2011and is expected to grow to $1.6 trillion by 2016. There are many factors in play, but probably the most significant is that from 1980 to 2010 the… Read More »
