Boulder Homes Days on Market in 4Q
by Osman Parvez
This morning, we’re digging further into the numbers on Boulder’s market. The chart below depicts the number of homes sold (still preliminary for 4Q05) relative to the days on market (DOM) for the same period. This analysis is for single family home sales, no condos or townhomes relative to average and median DOM. Why both average and median? To illustrate the consistent skew caused by outlying sales.
In plain English, there are a certain number of homes that sit on the market for very long periods of time. If you only look at average numbers, these slow moving properties skew the results significantly.
I’ll break down the quarter to monthly results in the next few days as well as revisit the data to see if there have been many updates by realtors. Naturally, monthly data will be more prone to volatility and thus less useful for teasing out longer term trends.

Testimonials
Osman was a refreshingly honest realtor. He stressed through the entire process that his goal was to make me happy with my home purchase. I greatly appreciated the fact that he never shied away from pointing out the negatives as well as the pluses of different places while leaving the final decision up to me.
We can highly recommend Sophie. Her attention to detail and communication skills are great. Our home was in area that most realtors are not familiar with, but Sophie took extra time to get to know the neighborhood in order to give us quality service. She also brought in a professional photographer to make our home look its best. Even though the listing was in winter, the house sold quickly. With Sophie’s business and people skills, we have no doubt she will be a top realtor in the area.
