Summary:

During May 2025 in Northern Colorado, home sales and inventory increased, without much impact on home prices. As we noted last month, the northern Colorado real estate market is functioning more or less normally for the season, with active buyers, willing sellers, and available inventory and financing.

But beneath that normality lies a great amount of uncertainty regarding the future of the economy. The potential impacts of tariffs and other emerging economic policies on prices, employment and interest rates aren’t measurable at this time - those policies are still fluidly defined and still exist mostly within the realm of possibility. The good news is that, in spite of that uncertainty, the housing market isn’t yet showing any signs of fragility or disruption.

But what is happening now isn’t giving us much of a read on what to expect from the coming months, and while we’d much rather provide you with some good forecasts of what’s in store for the market, we really don’t have any solid basis for doing so yet.

But we are keeping a close watch on what’s happening, and as soon as we get some idea of how things will be playing out, we’ll let you know what we think. And in the meantime, please give us a call if you have any questions or just want to chat - we’re always available to talk with you.
