In this March 2026 video, the speaker provides a concise, data‑driven overview of the Colorado Front Range housing market, breaking down recent activity by region. In greater metro Denver, inventory surged to over 4,800 new listings—the highest in four years—while pending sales jumped 25% month‑over‑month, indicating strong demand. Boulder County saw an 11% rise in demand this month; new listings are steady, but total inventory is down 5% year‑over‑year, keeping high‑end properties highly competitive. In North Weld and Larimer Counties, pending sales exceeded 500 in February, a 13% increase from January, with homes staying on market about 66 days, showing buyer momentum despite slightly higher supply. El Paso County (The Springs) experienced record supply with more than 1,200 new listings in February and over 2,500 active listings, giving buyers greater pricing leverage even as demand remains robust, highlighted by the strongest contract month in four years.

Chapters

Starting in greater metro Denver, the spring market arrived early. Inventory exploded with over 4,800 new listings, the highest we've seen in 4 years. Demand followed suit with pending sales jumping 25% in just one month. In Boulder County, demand is the headline, ticking up 11% this month. While new listings are holding steady with last year's pace, total inventory is actually down 5% year over year. Meaning the Boulder market remains incredibly competitive for those high-end properties. Up in North Weld and Larimer Counties, momentum is building. We saw over 500 pending sales in February, a 13% jump from January. New listings are slightly outpacing last year, and while homes are staying on the market a bit longer at 66 days, the monthly surge in contracts proves that buyers are out in force. Heading south to El Paso County, we're seeing record-breaking supply. February hit a milestone with over 1,200 new listings. While demand is strong, with January seeing the most contracts in 4 years, the high inventory of over 2,500 active listings is finally starting to give buyers more leverage on pricing. The bottom line, whether you're in Denver, The Springs, or the Northern Corridor, The supply versus demand scale is moving. We have more options for buyers than we've seen in years, but demand is rising with it along most of the Colorado Front Range.
