Northern Colorado Market Report
What is actually for sale across Larimer, Weld and Boulder County right now — read straight from the same multiple listing service used to price every listing in this market. No Zestimates, no national-aggregator guesses, and no waiting for a monthly write-up.
Live from IRES MLS, last refreshed today (October 8, 2026) across 43 Northern Colorado towns. These are asking prices on homes for sale right now — what sellers are asking, not what buyers finally paid.
Northern Colorado Right Now
A median is a middle, not a verdict. It moves when the mix of what is listed changes, not only when values change — a quiet month in Boulder and a busy one in Greeley will pull this number in opposite directions. Use it to see the shape of the market, then ask for the figures that actually describe your house.
Where The Inventory Is
The busiest markets first — these are also the towns whose medians rest on the most listings, which makes them the most reliable to read.
| Town | Homes For Sale | Median Asking Price | Per Sq Ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fort Collins | 1,183 | $505,000 | $295 |
| Boulder | 938 | $939,000 | $542 |
| Loveland | 775 | $500,000 | $287 |
| Greeley | 592 | $425,000 | $216 |
| Longmont | 567 | $564,950 | $308 |
| Windsor | 394 | $615,000 | $258 |
| Johnstown | 297 | $492,000 | $245 |
| Erie | 295 | $700,000 | $294 |
| Berthoud | 275 | $619,990 | $311 |
| Estes Park | 222 | $675,000 | $391 |
| Fort Lupton | 156 | $489,990 | $275 |
| Lafayette | 145 | $595,000 | $375 |
Towns with too few listings to aggregate honestly are left out rather than guessed at.
Where Asking Prices Run Highest
Among Northern Colorado towns with real inventory behind the number — at least fifty homes for sale, so a couple of ranches cannot tip the median.
The $1M+ Tier: The June 2026 Snapshot
Sold figures for the top of the market, from the June 2026 report — a dated snapshot, not the live asking-price figures above, and not updated since. At this level days on market run longer because buyers are deliberate rather than hesitant, and pricing precision decides whether a home trades inside two months or sits for six.
The highest close in that window was $2,695,000 in Berthoud (5 bd, 5,853 sq ft) — address held privately, in respect of the sellers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Northern Colorado real estate market doing right now?
Right now there are 7,710 homes for sale across 43 Northern Colorado towns in Larimer, Weld and Boulder County. The median asking price is $505,000, or about $295 per square foot. These are live IRES MLS figures, refreshed today.
Are these sold prices or asking prices?
Asking prices — what sellers are asking for homes that are on the market today. That is deliberate: it is the live picture, and it is the number that tells you what you are competing with as a buyer or against as a seller. What homes finally sold for is a different question, one that runs a month or two behind by definition. Ask me for the sold figures for your town and price band and you will get them the same day.
How many homes are for sale in Northern Colorado?
7,710 across the 43 towns tracked here. Fort Collins carries the most at 1,183. Inventory is the number most worth watching: when it climbs, buyers get room to negotiate; when it falls, well-priced homes start moving fast again.
Where do these numbers come from?
IRES MLS — the same multiple listing service used to price every listing in this market, read directly rather than through a national aggregator's model. Aggregate statistics only: medians and counts, never individual addresses. The page rebuilds itself from the live feed, so it does not go stale between monthly write-ups.
These Are Averages. Your House Isn't.
A regional median tells you almost nothing about a specific house on a specific street — and it cannot tell you what homes like yours actually sold for. If you want the figures for your town, your price band and your kind of property, including the sold comparables, ask. That read is free and takes about fifteen minutes.
Want the sold numbers?
This page tracks what is on the market. What homes actually closed for — in your neighbourhood, at your size, this quarter — is the other half of the picture, and I will pull it for you on request.
