Colorado Springs Housing Market at a Glance – Fall 2025

The latest Colorado Springs housing data shows a market balancing itself after a busy summer. New listings are up, sales have slowed, and prices remain stable heading into winter. For homeowners thinking about selling, that balance is good news—it means predictability, clear data, and less guesswork. With interest rates beginning to ease and fewer listings expected through December, sellers who prepare early could gain an advantage heading into 2026.

A Seller’s Market Check: October in Review

October brought the kind of shift that experienced sellers recognize a cooling of pace, not of potential. The latest Pikes Peak REALTOR® Services Corp (RSC) data shows that Colorado Springs is settling into a balanced rhythm, giving sellers a more predictable landscape heading into winter.

• New listings: 1,389 (up 4.6% from September)
• Closed sales: 876 (down 14.6%)
• Median sale price: $473,500 (down 1.2%)
• Average sale price: $543,590 (down 3.8%)
• Average days on market: 52 days
• Months of supply: 4.5, up from 3.9

Condos and townhomes followed the same pattern—more listings, fewer sales, and stable prices. Homes sold for about 98% of list price, which means buyers are negotiating within reason but not walking away from value.

What This Means for Colorado Springs Home Sellers

This market is no longer about speed; it’s about strategy. Sellers who understand today’s data can still sell confidently—and often at stronger prices than expected.

• Balanced, not buyer-heavy: The rise in inventory gives buyers more breathing room, but supply remains below pre-2020 levels. Sellers still hold leverage when priced correctly.
• Small dips, steady confidence: Median prices slipped slightly month-to-month, yet year-to-date values remain 2.4% higher than 2024. That’s a healthy indicator of stability.
• Adjusting wins: Roughly 40% of listings took small price reductions averaging 3%, showing that realistic pricing beats waiting out the market.
• Qualified buyers are steady: VA, relocation, and first-time buyers remain active, particularly in the $400,000–$600,000 range where inventory moves fastest.

If you’re planning to sell soon, the market is signaling: slow down, plan smart, and prepare well.

Why This Matters Now for Sellers

As we move into November and December, this is where opportunity hides in plain sight. The holiday season isn’t an obstacle—it’s a window. Strategic sellers who act now will be positioned ahead of the next market surge.

• Inventory is rising, but competition is thinning – October’s 4.5-month supply marks balance, not saturation. Many sellers wait until spring, leaving motivated buyers with fewer quality options. Well-staged listings this time of year often receive stronger engagement and less direct competition.
• Prices are holding firm through year-end – Median prices near $473,500 are expected to remain stable through December. Slight seasonal adjustments of 1–2% are normal, not concerning. Sellers who price realistically can still command solid offers.
• Interest rates are leveling out – After a year of volatility, rates have begun to ease. If they dip further toward the low-6% range, buyer activity could rise quickly in January. Sellers who prepare now—photos, marketing, pre-inspection—will be ready when that demand hits.
• Motivated buyers stay active through the holidays – Military relocations, year-end job transfers, and VA buyers searching before deployment cycles keep traffic moving in November and December. These buyers are qualified, focused, and decisive.
• Early preparation sets up spring success – Homes prepped or listed now are ideally timed for the January–March window, when inventory grows but buyers remain serious. Use this quieter season to update, stage, and position your home before the next wave of listings.
• New-build competition remains limited – Builder inventory in El Paso County hasn’t caught up with demand, which continues to boost resale opportunities—especially in neighborhoods like Banning Lewis Ranch, Meridian Ranch, Flying Horse, and Wolf Ranch.

November–December Forecast: A Season for Smart Sellers

As 2025 winds down, the Colorado Springs housing market is entering a steady, predictable phase — one that favors sellers who understand timing and preparation. The next eight weeks aren’t about chasing momentum; they’re about setting the stage for it.

Here’s what to expect as we move through November and December:

• Active listings will taper slightly – Many homeowners traditionally wait until January or February to list, which means available inventory is likely to decline modestly through year’s end. That seasonal drop gives motivated sellers a strategic advantage — less competition and more visibility among serious buyers who are still actively searching.
• Days on market will edge up — but context matters – Expect the average time on market to stretch into the mid-50s, which is normal for late fall. Homes that show well, are priced with precision, and align with buyer expectations continue to sell quickly, often outperforming the average.
• Prices will hold steady into winter – Median prices are projected to remain within 1–2% of current levels through December. This stability reflects a balanced market, not a downturn. With supply hovering around four and a half months, sellers still maintain leverage when pricing and presentation align with demand.
• Buyer activity could rise if rates dip again – Mortgage rates have leveled, and even a small decline could unlock pent-up demand from buyers who’ve been watching from the sidelines. We’re already seeing more inquiries and showings from pre-approved clients preparing to move before spring.
• The opportunity window is open — but not for long – Historically, the market begins to reaccelerate in late January. Sellers who use November and December to prepare — whether that means staging, updating, or pricing strategically — will enter the new year ready to capture renewed buyer energy instead of competing with it.

The takeaway: This winter rewards focus and foresight. A well-prepared home in a market with limited inventory and steady pricing can still command strong offers. The sellers who act now — before the next surge of listings — will lead the pack when the 2026 market gears up.
