Columbine West 2018 Real Estate Recap

by John Basila

Columbine West 2018 Real Estate Recap

by John Basila, posted 2/12/2019

Columbine West continued to be a strong Real Estate market in 2018. Historically speaking, there are typically 6 or 7 homes sold every month in Columbine West. Although 2018 wasn't as strong as some previous years, the lack of available homes for sale probably played a role in the decline. At the moment, for instance, there is only one home that is "Active" in the REColorado MLS. That means that there is only a 5 Day Supply of homes!

We are still in a very strong "Seller's Market". A "Balanced Market" means that there are four to six months of Inventory. A "Buyer's Market" is when there are more than 6 months of Inventory, so Buyers have the ability to be a little pickier and Sellers have to make more concessions. This "Seller's Market" will continue through the next year or so, at least, according to many experts.

As evidence of our "Seller's Market" in Columbine West, homes are still selling very quickly. The average Days On Market (DOM) in the Denver Metro Area is around 30 Days. The historical average in the Denver Metro over the last 50 years has been 70 Days. In 2018, Columbine West saw the same 6 Days On Market as we've seen over the past few years. If your property is priced right, it will sell quickly, and probably with multiple offers.

Recently, Lon Welsh of First Alliance Title revealed to me that those Sellers that priced their home correctly in the Denver Metro over the past 24 months, were sold in 13 Days On Market. If the Sellers had overpriced their home, it took 58 Days On Market and a price reduction to get it sold. My Sellers "Net" almost 103% of their List Price because we price their property correctly.

Incidentally, homes that were priced right sold more quickly in February, March and April in 2018. Since there's limited inventory before Spring, properties were gobbled up in less than two weeks in early 2018!!

Since the "Seller's Market" continues to be strong in Columbine West, you will not be surprised that our Property Values continue to rise. Did you get your new Tax Bill from Jefferson County, yet?? :-)

With limited inventory and a ton of Buyers waiting to purchase, our prices in Columbine West have continued their growth. Although we're not seeing the Double-Digit price appreciation that we saw in 2014 & 2015, we still saw a healthy 6.3% Increase in the Average Sale Price for 2018. Experts expect the rate of appreciation to continue to hover in the 5% to 6% range over the next two years.

Littleton Real Estate Had A Strong 2016

by John Basila

Littleton Real Estate had a Strong 2016 performance!! 

Detached Home Sales continued to be strong in 2016, with 2,361 Sales.  We're averaging almost 200 homes sold every month over the past 5 years.  There are currently only 151 houses that are "Active", which means that the Littleton Real Estate Market is still in a strong "Seller's Market".

 

With the huge demand and limited inventory, prices have continued to increase at a strong rate.  In 2016, Median Home Prices for Littleton Real Estate improved by 8.8 percent, up to $403,500.

With the huge demand and limited inventory, homes tended to sell quickly in 2016.  The Littleton Real Estate average for Days On Market was 24 Days last year.  This is how long a house is "Active" until it goes "Under Contract".  Performance in 2016 was comparable to 2015.

Expectations are that the Littleton Real Estate Market will continue to be strong in 2017.  If you're considering Selling your house or if you just want to know what the current market value of your house is, contact Littleton Realtor John Basila for a complimentary Market Analysis.

Ken Caryl Real Estate Has Good 2015!

by John Basila

Ken Caryl Real Estate had a good performance in 2015.

There were fewer homes sold in the Ken Caryl neighborhoods in 2015, mostly a result of less available inventory.  Ken Caryl Real Estate had 121 homes sold in 2015.

Homes sold in virtually the same amount of time in Ken Caryl last year as in 2014.  The Median Days On Market for Ken Caryl Real Estate in 2015 was 20 Days.

Although Ken Caryl Real Estate saw an amazing 16% increase in Median Sales Price in 2014, the price appreciation in 2015 was just 5.6%.  The Median Sales Price for Ken Caryl was up to $524,000 in 2015.

There are currently 11 homes that are "Active" in Ken Caryl, with nine of them in the Ken Caryl Valley area.  Ken Caryl Real Estate is still somewhat of a "Seller's Market", with just one month of inventory available.

Grant Ranch Real Estate Has A Healthy 2015!

by John Basila

Grant Ranch Real Estate enjoyed another year of strong sales and price appreciation.

Overall, Grant Ranch had 52 homes sold in 2015.  This is slightly more than the average of the past five years.

Although 2015 was very much a "Seller's Market" for Grant Ranch Real Estate, there has been a significant increase in inventory in the past few months, with 12 homes now "Active" in the MLS.  This means that there are three months worth of inventory available.  Most surrounding neighborhoods only have about a month's worth of inventory.

With demand high in 2015, it took fewer days to sell a property than in prior years.  The Median Days On Market for Grant Ranch Real Estate in 2015 was down to 12 Days.

With the Holidays and slowing demand, the fewest days on market for the 12 "Active" properties is 29 Days.  This might provide an opportunity for Buyers that have an interest in Grant Ranch Real Estate.

Last year, Grant Ranch properties also had a healthy increase in Median Sales Value.  With a 10% increase in sales prices, Grant Ranch was close to the Littleton increase of 12.3%.

If you're thinking of selling your Grant Ranch property, it's important to consider the changing market and choose a professional to help you maximize your opportunities.  Please visit denverhomereport1.com for a complimentary price analysis for your house.  You can also call us at (303)589-9034 or email us at columbinerealtor@gmail.com.

Governor's Ranch Real Estate Sees Improvement in 2015!

by John Basila

Governor's Ranch Real Estate had an excellent year in 2015!!  Governor's Ranch had more sales and a healthy increase in prices after the so-so performance of 2014.

Overall, there were 46 homes sold in Governor's Ranch in 2015, which was well above the average of the past few years.

Like the rest of Littleton, the Governor's Ranch neighborhood faced high demand for properties in 2015.  This helped prices to increase and the amount of time spent on the market to remain low.  In 2015, the Median Days on Market remained flat at 12 Days.

Governor's Ranch Real Estate enjoyed a healthy 11.6% Increase in Median Sales Value, which was pretty close to the Littleton average of 12.3%.

Demand continues to be strong for properties in Governor's Ranch.  There are currently 3 properties that are "Active".  With 4 homes being sold every month, it's still very much a "Seller's Market" in Governor's Ranch.

Columbine Hills Real Estate Continues To Improve in 2015!

by John Basila

Columbine Hills Real Estate had another strong year in 2015.  Home sales remained steady while prices continued to increase and the length of time on the market declined.

It was a "Seller's Market" again in 2015 in Columbine Hills. Similar to the rest of Littleton, the neighborhood had a very limited inventory, which helped push the Median Days On Market down.

Overall, there were 63 homes sold in Columbine Hills in 2015, which is comparable to prior years.

With limited inventory and high demand, prices increased again in Columbine Hills in 2015.

Columbine Hills Real Estate enjoyed a nice increase in Median Sales Price in 2015.  This 10.3% increase was slightly behind the average for Littleton, which was 12.3%. 

Demand remains high for properties in the Columbine Hills neighborhood.  If you're considering selling your house, please feel free to go to denverhomereport1.com for a complimentary pricing analysis for your property.  You can also call us at (303)589-9034 or email us at columbinerealtor@gmail.com.

On average, there were 8 homes sold each month in 2015 in the Columbine West neighborhood. 

There was a huge demand for houses in Columbine West in 2015.  With limited inventory still being an issue, Columbine West was very much a "Seller's Market".  This helped the Median Sales Price increase by 14.3%, which was significantly higher than the growth of 12.3% seen throughout Littleton, CO.
