Recently there has been a lot of talk about home prices in Northern Colorado, and if you are a home owner, what to do with your home equity, and the Northern Colorado Real Estate Market. As we mentioned before, in Ft. Collins, Loveland, and Greeley, seller supply (homes for sale) are not keeping up with the number of buyers out looking for a home, which has caused prices to rise.
The great news about these rising prices, the average homeowner in the three cities gained over $11,000 in equity since 2015.
Here is a breakdown of 9 Northern Colorado areas and the average homes sale price increase % since 2015:
Ft. Collins/ Timnath- 13%
Berthoud- 11%
Loveland- 12%
Greeley/Evans- 13%
Windsor/Severance- 11%
Ault/Eaton- 11%
Johnstown/Milliken- 11%
Kersey/Lasalle- 11%
Wellington- 16%
