DENVER — Newcomers moving to Denver have bigger budgets to spend on purchasing homes, according to a recent study from Redfin.
Denver ranked No. 8 on a list compiled by Redfin that tracked the difference between home budgets for out-of-towners compared to locals.
The real estate company’s report shows that out of towners could spend 11.8% more for home purchases than locals. For individuals moving to Denver, their average maximum budgets were $983,761, while locals could only spend an average maximum of $879,964, according to the analysis. Median sale prices in Denver were $610,000 in June 2022, according to Redfin.
Homebuyers flooding the state from elsewhere may be edging out locals struggling to buy. Denver's housing market — which has been frenzied amid the influence of the coronavirus pandemic — recently saw an increase in inventory but homebuyers are still typically paying over market price as of June.
