Mile High Home Group – Welcome to Denver

Right now, Denver sits in that tricky middle ground where it’s not a pure buyer’s market or a pure seller’s market—it’s a more balanced market with pockets that lean one way or the other depending on price point and neighborhood. In practical terms, that means both buyers and sellers can do very well, but only if they’re strategic and realistic.

Where The Leverage Is Today

In my 15+ years working in Denver real estate and helping clients through thousands of transactions, I’ve learned that labels like “buyer’s market” and “seller’s market” can be misleading. What I’m seeing today across Denver, Littleton, and Highlands Ranch is this:

• Well-prepped, well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods still give sellers a slight edge.
• Overpriced, dated, or poorly presented homes give buyers more leverage.

So the question isn’t just, “Is it a buyer’s or seller’s market?” It’s, “Which side has the advantage for this specific home in this specific micro‑market?”

How It Feels on the Ground

In many Denver neighborhoods, serious buyers are still out there, but they’re more selective and less willing to chase unrealistic prices. They study schools, HOAs, and long‑term value closely, and they won’t hesitate to walk away if something feels off. In Littleton, homes in strong school districts with reasonable HOA fees and good curb appeal can still attract multiple offers if they’re priced correctly. In Highlands Ranch, homes near popular rec centers, trails, and well‑run HOAs often move faster than the stats might suggest.

From the seller side, you can’t just throw a number at the wall anymore. You need thoughtful pricing strategy, strong presentation, and a plan for inspections and negotiations. From the buyer side, you finally have room to breathe—time to think, negotiate repairs, and sometimes secure credits or concessions that were unheard of a few years ago.

How I Help You Win in a Balanced Market

In a balanced Colorado housing market, strategy matters more than labels. Here’s how I guide clients on both sides:

• If you’re selling, I walk your home with you, prioritize smart improvements, and build a pricing plan based on real local data—recent sales, days on market, schools, and HOAs.
• If you’re buying, I help you read the micro‑market so you know when to push, when to hold firm, and when to walk away.
• In every case, I stay hands‑on through showings, feedback, and negotiation so you’re never guessing about your position.

My clients are long‑term relationships and friends, not transactions, so my advice is always grounded in integrity, honesty, and transparency—not hype.
