Over the past 6 months, Colorado’s housing market has been shifting in your favor. With more listings, longer days on market, and price drops, we’re officially in a buyer’s market — and that gives you some real leverage. 💪
But here’s the key:
👉 Now more than ever, your home inspection matters.
📉 Quick Market Snapshot (Mid-2025):
Median home price: $525,000
Listings are up 📈
Homes are staying on the market longer 🕒
Sellers are more willing to negotiate 🤝
🧰 Why Your Inspection is a Power Move:
In this slower market, you don’t have to rush or waive protections like inspections just to compete. That means:
✅ You can take your time
✅ You can negotiate based on what you find
✅ You can walk away if the home has major issues
🛠️ Found Problems? You’ve Got Options:
If your inspection turns up issues (and many do), you can:
Ask the seller to fix them 🔧
Request a credit at closing 💵
Renegotiate the price 📉
Or even back out (if your contract allows) 🚪
💬 Bottom Line:
In today’s market, a thorough inspection isn’t just smart — it’s a major advantage. Use it to protect your investment and make sure your future home is solid.
