Median days on market for Denver County listings, monthly, 2016 to September 2026: a saw-tooth of spring lows against winter highs, latest reading 57 days.

The median Denver County listing sat 57 days on the market in September 2026, against 64 days a year earlier. Days on market is the market’s pulse rather than its price: it says how long sellers wait, and it moves before asking prices do, because a seller cuts the price only after the waiting has already happened.

The seasonal pattern is severe and it is not a trend — listings move fastest in spring and slowest in December, every year, and the only honest comparison is to the same month a year ago. Over the whole series the fastest month was 7 days (April 2022) and the slowest 79 (December 2025).
