So How’s the Market? | Denver Metro Real Estate Update – December 2025/January 2026

  

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen! Andrew Malkoski with The Denver 100 here, bringing you your latest Denver Metro real estate market update.

So… how’s the market?  

The Denver housing market finished 2025 on a strong note. We saw 3,122 home sales in December, putting the month nearly even with December of 2024. In fact, when you look at the full year, 2025 wrapped up just slightly below 2024 overall. One of the biggest reasons? Improving interest rates kept buyers active throughout the fall and early winter, when we normally we expect things to slow down.

As we move into the new year, something important is happening. Buyers and sellers are getting more aligned. Sellers understand what buyers need to close, and buyers are stepping in with confidence when the numbers make sense. Right now, winter buyers are actually seeing more competition on certain homes, which means faster decisions and stronger offers are becoming more common.

Looking ahead to 2026, we expect to see more homes closing as interest rates continue to gradually soften. As long as sellers are willing to negotiate concessions and pricing their homes realistically, we should continue to see healthy growth in pending and sold homes across the Denver Metro area.

I’ll be releasing my full 2025 market analysis and 2026 predictions in just a couple of weeks and I’ll be sure to share that with you.

As always, if you have questions about buying or selling in today’s market, I’m here to help.
