Active listings – The number of homes for sale in Metro Denver

The number of homes actively for sale tells you everything about market balance in Metro Denver. These charts track housing inventory over time—the fundamental supply metric that drives competition, pricing power, and negotiating leverage for both buyers and sellers.

When active listings are low, buyers face fierce competition, bidding wars become common, and sellers hold the cards. When inventory climbs, buyers gain choices and negotiating power while sellers must sharpen their pricing and presentation to stand out. This supply dynamic directly influences how quickly homes sell, how close to asking price they go for, and whether you’ll need to act fast or can take your time.

Understanding Denver’s inventory patterns reveals whether you’re entering a buyer’s market, seller’s market, or something in between—essential knowledge for crafting your real estate strategy.
