Lakewood Colorado Residential Home Sales - Market Overview by Price

Detached Single Family Homes - As of July 15, 2009 (Including All Sold Data from Previous 6 Months)

The media reports different statistics for real estate trends and most are national or statewide data.  But remember that all real estate is local to your area.  For properties in the City of Lakewood, you can see by the data below, for the most part, it is a seller’s market for homes below $275,000.  And it is a buyer’s market above $375,000.  In fact, it is an extreme buyers market above the $1,000,000 price point with 3 homes selling every 6 months! (The National Association of Realtors® describe a buyer’s market as less than 6 months of inventory and a seller’s market as greater than 6 months of inventory).

 

How is the First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit Affecting the Housing Market?

The First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit is definitely working below $300,000!  Many of our buyers are getting out bid on several homes in and around the Denver Metro Area.  There are many buyers trying to take advantage of the First Time Home Buyer Credit of $8,000 and if you are one of them, you should consider moving up your plans as soon as possible.  The IRS guidelines for the tax credit require that you close on your new home by November 30, 2009.  It is hard to find homes now and there will be a rush to buy before the deadline and the competition will push up prices.  Also, there is a lack of move in ready single family homes available for purchase in Lakewood below $175,000 today.  I am certain that it will get worse when everyone rushes to buy before the deadline.  Start your search now!!
