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 million, you can find it in Denver or in the surrounding suburbs.
Here is how the luxury market fared for the month of April 2022 -
Total sales - 365 homes ranging from $1,300,000 to $5,500,000 (last month was 280 homes, 2021 was 433)
Average Days on Market - 18 days (last month was 21 days last month and 2021 was 24 days)
Sellers saw - 105.26% to list price
Average price per SF (Total) - $380.90 (last month was $381.03)
These homes were built from 1890 to 2022
The highest-priced home sold was $7,010,000 in the Denver Metro and is in the neighborhood of Cherry Hills Village. This home was built in 2003, on .81 acres. It has 4 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and a 5-car garage. This home has 9,681 square feet and was on the market for only ONE day.

Mother Nature has been teasing us now with some beautiful days, and many are looking to spend time outdoors with family and friends. Need a better outdoor space? Maybe with a view?

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. With such low inventory even in the luxury sector, homes were not on the market long.
I have obtained my luxury marketing certification which has given me a multitude of new ideas. If you have seen a home in this post this intrigues you, give me a call - 720-231-6373.
