December 2023 Denver Housing Market
As we ring in the new year, Denver’s real estate market is already making waves. According to Jenny Usaj, Managing Broker of Usaj Realty, there has been a surge in buyer activity due to low inventory, rising home prices, and historically low interest rates hovering around 6%. This combination has created a buzz in the market as buyers scramble to find their dream home in the mile-high city. While it may only be January, agents are already reporting multiple offers on homes in highly sought-after neighborhoods. If you’re looking to buy or sell a home in Denver this year, keep reading for some friendly and informative advice.
