Tracks month-end active residential inventory by county against matched historical months.
Latest published edition
Denver Housing Inventory Is 88% Above 2023, but Flat Year Over Year
Six-county active inventory was 88.2% above August 2023 and nearly unchanged from August 2025.
Data period: August 2026. Geography: Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties; Boulder is separate where stated in the edition..
How to use this measure
For buyers: Use active inventory to understand available choices in the county, then inspect the relevant neighborhood and price tier.
For sellers: Use inventory changes to assess buyer alternatives before pricing; county totals do not value an individual home.
Method and limits
The August 2026 edition uses REcolorado / InfoSparks monthly county exports and documents its calculations and source vintage.
Descriptive aggregate research only: not an appraisal, forecast, causal conclusion, statistical-significance test or substitute for property-level due diligence. Later source revisions can change history.
