And if you’ve been holding your Denver property since April 2010, the median home price has increased by $164,800 ( 77.57% ).

2. Historically Low Supply of Denver Homes
When something is scarce, people want it more. And they will pay more for it. The historically low supply of Denver homes is causing many people to sell their homes.
Compared to December 2015, December 2016 had even fewer homes on the market. There were 212 fewer single families on the market (down 27.71% ) from the previous year.
The long term pressure of fewer and fewer single family Denver homes is pushing homeowners to sell their home before supplies start to rise again.
