When buyers ask me, “Is now a good time to buy?” what they really mean is:
“Am I going to overpay in my neighborhood if I buy right now?”
That’s the right question — and it can’t be answered with national headlines or Denver-wide averages.
I’m David Richins, Broker Associate with RE/MAX Professionals and founder of GoColoradoRealEstate.com, and what I track daily are micro-market signals across Castle Rock, Parker, Highlands Ranch, and the surrounding South Metro.
Days on market by subdivision
Active vs pending ratios
Price reductions vs accepted offers
Buyer competition by price band
For example:
In Castle Rock, some neighborhoods are quietly shifting toward buyer leverage this month
In Parker, homes priced precisely are still moving fast
In Highlands Ranch, sellers are more negotiable when homes miss the first 14 days
This is why timing is never universal.
