1. Boulder buyers and sellers are finally coming together.
For the past couple of years, buyers have acted like it’s 2008 and sellers like it’s 2022.
-
Buyers expected dramatic discounts and maximum leverage.
-
Sellers remembered the Covid frenzy and were emotionally invested in those peak conditions.
That mismatch kept a lot of people stuck. Now the middle is emerging.
Post-Covid pricing adjustments have largely worked their way through the system. Sellers are pricing more realistically. Buyers are feeling more confident — and more willing to engage.
For the first time in years, rates have dipped below 6% and, more importantly, have shown signs of steadiness.
It’s not just about the number — it’s about predictability.
Buyers can finally make plans without fearing a rate drop once they’re locked in (though refinancing options are always still available.)
If you’re considering buying or selling this spring, I’d love to discuss strategy that will help you find your next in this evolving landscape.
