About the Arvada, Westminster and Denver Real Estate Market
Although interest rates are down - buying
activity has slowed significantly. Showings are sluggish and buyers are finding
a large selection of homes for sale. Open house traffic is the lowest in years.
Home resale can be considered a Buyer's Market. Homes in move-in condition and
priced right are selling in about 30-60 days. Homes needing work, updating or
priced aggressively are taking a long time to sell, from 90-180 days. There is
definitely an oversupply of available resale homes. Sellers are lowering prices
to get them sold resulting in a drop in property values. Builders are
negotiating new construction prices with Buyer's, a trend we have not seen in
years.
The slowing may be more than seasonal.
Layoffs in the Telecommunications field have been significant. New home starts
have been curtailed. Larsen Homes, an area builder, recently declared
bankruptcy - the first new home builder to fall. The next few months will be a
great indicator as to the slow down being seasonal or economy
related.
There seems to be an upturn in relocation
from out of state with Arizona and Florida leading the pack.
