Key Findings

  1. $322,000 median sold price is the primary indicator of current market value in 80012 and, when compared to the $339,950 median listing price, suggests a gap between seller expectations and recent transaction levels that may indicate downward price pressure.
  2. 227 median days on market signals notably slower sales velocity and suggests pricing friction and extended time-to-contract for both SFR and condominium listings in this ZIP code.
  3. median price per square foot $256 remains an important benchmarking metric for valuing comparable listings, but given the neutral market temperature and the downward price year-over-year trend, sellers should be cautious when setting offers above recent sold comparables.
  4. median market rent $1,540 and the rent year-over-year trend down indicate softer rental rates; coupled with elevated interest rate pressure and the fact that Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Aurora, CO, are averaging 6.53%, which is 0.55% higher than the 5.98% rate observed at the start of 2026, investors should re-evaluate short-term cashflow assumptions and underwriting stress tests.
