What it means
Reading the numbers as a seller
- Boulder County is not one market. A Louisville seller and a Lafayette seller are facing opposite conditions in the same month.
- Prices per square foot are down countywide while median prices are up — meaning larger, well-prepared homes are carrying the average.
- Days on market in the 40–55 day range means presentation and pricing in the first two weeks decide the outcome.
- Your equity number depends on your street and your home's condition, not the county headline.
