Denver home prices, August 2026
The monthly home-price refresh, from the two measures that disagree usefully. Case-Shiller put the Denver index at 315.0 in August 2026, down 0.8% on the year. Zillow’s index valued the typical metro home at $555,487 in September 2026, down 1.8% on the year. They measure different things — Case-Shiller tracks repeat sales of the same homes and reports a three-month average two months late; Zillow values the entire housing stock monthly — so treat Case-Shiller as the shape and Zillow as the level.
The second chart shows the tier split, and it is the reason this post carries Case-Shiller at all: S&P divides the metro’s repeat sales into thirds by price.
