Market Summary
October brought a noticeable shift in the Colorado Springs housing market, with several indicators showing signs of cooling.
- Active Listings: Up 20% year-over-year, continuing to build on the higher inventory trend.
- New Listings: Flat compared to last October, suggesting that the growth in available homes is more about slower sales than new supply.
- Sales: Down 10% to 689 units, marking one of the slower Octobers we’ve seen in recent years.
- Inventory: Now over 4 months of supply — the first time we’ve crossed that threshold since 2014.
- Average Sales Price: Down 6.46% from last year, a clear sign that buyers are gaining leverage.
The cracks we started to see last month appear to have widened, with both sales activity and pricing softening across much of the market. The ongoing government shutdown is also playing a role, creating uncertainty for many buyers and delaying transactions tied to government-backed loans and employment.
Inventory levels make it clear the momentum has shifted. Sellers are having to adjust expectations, and buyers are finding more opportunity — especially if mortgage rates continue their recent downward trend.
