A Luxury Home can be identified differently in cities across the country, but in Denver, my Luxury blog posts will report on detached single-family homes listed in the Denver metro area for over $1.3 million. (Over the years I have used $1 million as luxury, but with our rising home values, had the need to increase this amount.) Some have mountain and/or city views, and some properties back to a golf course, or have water views all to compliment one's lifestyle. (however, we don't have much water) Some are updated with products from around the world, and some have expansive square footage or acreage. Whatever a Buyer is looking for, most likely if you have over $1.3 million, you can find it in Denver or in the surrounding suburbs.
Here is how the luxury market fared for the month of October 2022 -
Total sales - 166 homes ranging from $1,300,000 to $8,675,000 (last month was 221 homes, 2021 was 357)
Average Days on Market - 29 days (last month was 33 days last month and 2021 was 26 days)
Sellers saw - 98.3% to list price
Average price per SF (Total) - $575.84 (last month was $561.68)
These homes were built from 1885 to 2022
There was a significant drop in sales for October. 33% of the sales were paid with cash, same as the month of September. There are 595 actives today with 80 days on market, and 206 in pending status with 73 days on market.
The highest-priced home sold was $8,675,000 in the Denver Metro and is in The Polo Club. This home was built in 1961, on 1.1 acres. It has 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and a 4-car garage. This home has 9,755 square feet and was sold off-market in zero days.
Looking for a home on acreage and private? With mountain views? Or would you like to see what homes are for sale over $1,000,000? How about a home in a gated community?

Football season is upon us, but a media room would be equally as nice to watch a movie with the family and/or friends.

With home values on the rise, we are seeing more sales over $1 million. I did bump the price point to $1.3 million for 2022. It isn't unusual to see a million-dollar home. We are seeing some homes linger a bit longer on the market now.
