DENVER – A tight market and fierce competition continued to drive up Denver home prices in February.
The city’s housing inventory was at an all-time low last month and just 419 homes sold in Denver, according to real estate website Estately.
With so few homes on the market, those that are available attract buyers eager to beat out the competition, with many offering more than what the seller was originally asking for. Estately reports that 33.7 percent of all homes sold in February went for more than the listed price.
