Colorado Foothills Real Estate Market Update – November 2025
Evergreen • Conifer • Morrison • Clear Creek • Park County
The Colorado Foothills eased into winter with a slower but steadier November than we usually see. Activity tapered after October’s peak, but the overall September–November trend shows a market that’s moving at a more deliberate pace—still functional, still healthy, and more balanced than earlier in the year.
In Evergreen and Conifer, the region’s most active submarkets, closings rose from 48 in September to 58 in October before settling at 56 in November. This late-fall pattern has repeated for several years as buyers aim to complete moves before the holidays. Other foothills areas followed similar trends, posting stable year-over-year pricing but noticeably longer days on market.
Year-to-date pricing remains the clearest indicator of market stability. In Evergreen–Conifer, the median single-family price is up 3.7 percent and the average up 1.7 percent. Clear Creek and Park Counties also sit slightly ahead of last year, despite some monthly volatility due to small sample sizes. Days on market, however, continue to rise across the region. In Evergreen–Conifer, DOM increased from 48 days last November to 80 days this year, with Clear Creek and Park County showing similar shifts. Homes are selling—but they’re taking longer, and pricing accuracy matters more than ever.
Interest rates remain a key driver. With 30-year fixed mortgage rates settling into the low-6 percent range after peaking above seven percent, some buyers have stepped back in, though affordability continues to shape the pace of demand. Well-prepared, well-priced homes still draw steady activity, while those priced above market tend to linger.
A subtle but important theme this season is market fatigue. After a long stretch of fluctuating rates and shifting expectations, many buyers and sellers appear ready to move forward—even if conditions aren’t perfect. That readiness has helped keep the market active and contracts more stable than earlier in the year.
As 2025 wraps up, the Foothills enter winter on solid footing: inventory is higher, pricing is steady, and buyer activity remains more resilient than in many metro-area submarkets. With interest rates stabilizing, early 2026 is poised to bring a more balanced market for both buyers and sellers.
Here's to closing out 2025 and looking ahead to what is in store for the Foothills in 2026!
