Hot and Not

Where are the hottest markets in Northern Colorado?

Hint – it starts with “W”

Turns out the communities with the largest increase in year over year sales are… (drum roll please)

Windsor and Wellington!

Windsor transactions are up 22% more than last year. Wellington has seen an 11% increase.

All other NoCo communities are flat or lower than last year.

For example, Boulder transactions are down 9% compared to 2015.

Certainly one of the reasons for the uptick in Wellington and Windsor is the amount of inventory available to choose from and specifically inventory in the lower price ranges.

So, while prices are up everywhere, only two places have seen more sales than last year.

Signs of Slowing

It’s not just temperatures cooling off as we transition from summer to fall, there are signs that the market is cooling as well.autumn-974882_1280

The numbers are in and both Loveland and Fort Collins had their slowest August in several years.

Loveland had 127 single family home sales last month. This is 16% lower than August 2015 and the slowest August for Loveland since 2012.

Fort Collins had their slowest August since 2011 with 206 single family sales. This is 13% lower than last year.

This is good news for buyers who may have been reluctant to enter the multiple-offer frenzy that occurred this past spring. It looks like we are moving toward a more “normal” market.
