IRES: Home prices slip a bit from May 2022

Housing prices continued to live in the stratosphere in Boulder Valley and Northern Colorado cities, but with one exception, median prices for the month of May were all down from a year prior.

The Information and Real Estate Services LLC report for the month of May showed only Estes Park median prices increasing — by 9.4% — from May 2022. With only 18 single-family homes sold, the median was $930,000, up from the $747,500 seen in April and up from the $850,000 seen in May 2022. 

Other communities recorded declines in median prices over the same month of 2022.
