A Look at Northern Colorado’s Housing Market

Northern Colorado began 2025 with a mix of steady performance and evolving market conditions, creating opportunities on both sides of the transaction. While some areas experienced stronger sales activity and price gains, others saw longer market times and shifting demand. Despite these variations, the region continues to attract buyers drawn to its lifestyle, economy, and quality of life.

In Fort Collins, the market opened the year with continued activity alongside moderate adjustments. Detached home sales increased year over year, reflecting sustained buyer interest. Average sales prices came in lower compared to January 2024, largely influenced by the price segments driving sales rather than a broad decline in values. Homes sold closer to list price than last year, signaling stable pricing, and days on market shortened, indicating improved efficiency.
The attached market showed mixed results, with fewer closed sales but a slight increase in total sales volume, pointing to continued engagement at varying price points.

Loveland saw a more uneven start to the year. Detached home sales and overall volume declined compared to last year, while average prices moved higher, reinforcing ongoing value growth. Homes took longer to sell and closed at a slightly lower percentage of list price. Month-over-month activity softened, though pricing remained resilient.
Conversely, the attached market posted year-over-year gains in both sales and volume, even as longer market times suggested a more balanced and accessible environment for buyers.

In Timnath, continued growth defined the start of 2025. Detached home sales and total volume increased significantly from last year, accompanied by a notable rise in average prices. Homes spent more time on the market, reflecting a shift toward a more measured pace. Compared to December, sales activity moderated slightly, though price growth continued.

Windsor also opened the year with strong year-over-year gains, particularly among detached homes. Sales volume increased substantially, supported by steady price appreciation. Homes sold close to their original list price, and average days on market improved, pointing to healthy buyer demand and efficient market conditions.

Overall, Northern Colorado’s housing market continues to show adaptability as 2025 gets underway. While conditions vary by community and property type, the region remains active, with both buyers and sellers finding opportunities in a more balanced and thoughtful market.
