Whats Happening In The Fort Collins Market

Fort Collins Real Estate: What’s Actually Happening Right Now

If you’ve been wondering whether it’s a good time to buy or sell in Fort Collins, here’s the real picture, straight from the latest data.

The median list price for single-family homes right now is $665,000, with new listings coming in around $642,000—about $299 per square foot. Inventory sits at 397 homes, up slightly from last month, so buyers have a little more to choose from than they’ve had recently.

We’re in what’s called a slight seller’s advantage, with a Market Action Index of 42 (just above neutral, which favors sellers). That’s down a touch from last month’s 43, but the overall trend has been climbing for several weeks, and demand is still outpacing supply. If that continues, expect some upward pricing pressure to creep back in.

Days on market tells its own story. The average is 77 days, but the median is just 42—meaning most homes move in a reasonable window, while a few outliers drag the average up. Worth noting: 44% of listings have had a price decrease, and 0% have increased. A lot of sellers are coming in too high and adjusting after the fact, which is a good reminder that pricing it right from day one matters more than ever.

By price segment, homes around $1.27M are moving fastest at just 38 days on market, while the $750K range is the slowest at 49 days. The $495K–$599K segments are landing somewhere in between.

Bottom line: it’s a market that rewards good pricing and preparation, whether you’re buying or selling.
