Colorado Springs Housing Market Update: What February 2026 Means for Buyers and Sellers

February 05, 20261 min read

Overview of Colorado Springs Market Trends
The Colorado Springs housing market continues to show signs of resilience as we enter February 2026. Home prices are stabilizing after last year’s surge, providing both opportunities and challenges for buyers and sellers. With demand steady and inventory slowly increasing, the market is becoming more balanced, offering a healthier environment for both sides of the transaction.

Current Buyer Dynamics
Buyers are taking advantage of low mortgage rates, though affordability remains a concern in sought-after neighborhoods. Homes with mountain views, proximity to Pikes Peak, and easy access to amenities like parks and schools are attracting significant attention. Buyers are advised to act decisively while negotiating smartly to maximize value.

Seller Insights for February 2026
For sellers, February presents an early advantage ahead of the spring market rush. Homes staged well, priced strategically, and marketed effectively are generating strong interest. Working with a local real estate broker ensures sellers understand the nuances of pricing trends and buyer preferences in areas like Briargate, Black Forest, and Broadmoor.

Neighborhood Highlights

  • Briargate: Popular for families, excellent schools, and community parks.

  • Black Forest: Offers larger lots, private homes, and outdoor lifestyle opportunities.

  • Monument & Broadmoor: Known for upscale properties and scenic surroundings.

Market Predictions
Experts anticipate modest appreciation in home values over the coming months, with a potential increase in listings as sellers aim to capitalize on pre-spring activity. Understanding local micro-trends, such as neighborhood-specific demand, is critical for both buyers and sellers planning their next move.

Key Takeaways

  • Buyers should focus on neighborhoods aligning with lifestyle and budget.

  • Sellers must ensure homes are priced competitively and marketed effectively.

  • Working with a knowledgeable broker provides access to off-market listings and market insights.

My Mission Real estate is more than just a career for me—it’s a calling. Since the very beginning, my goal has always been simple: put people first and provide service that goes far beyond a transaction. I believe buying or selling a home is one of life’s biggest decisions, and my mission is to make sure you feel supported, confident, and cared for every step of the way. My Journey My story in Colorado Springs began in the Air Force, serving four years at NORAD. That experience taught me discipline, dedication, and the importance of integrity—values I’ve carried with me throughout my life and career. When I transitioned into real estate in 1979, I brought those same values to the work I do for my clients. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping families find their first homes, guiding investors toward smart opportunities, and assisting homeowners in selling properties for the best possible return. Every client has a story, and being part of that journey is what continues to inspire me after decades in this business. How I Work To me, real estate is a team effort. I take the time to truly listen and understand your needs, set clear goals with you, and stay in close communication so you always feel informed. My website serves as a 24/7 resource, with tools to search for homes, track your home’s value, and access helpful information whenever you need it. But while technology makes the process easier, it’s the personal connection that makes the difference—and that’s where I focus most. Behind the scenes, I’m supported by a trusted team: Janet S. – Executive Assistant & Office Manager Suze T. – Receptionist Together, we make sure every detail is handled with care so you can focus on what matters most—your move. Clients First, Always The heart of my business is the relationships I’ve built over the years. Many of my clients have become lifelong friends, and I’m honored that so much of my business comes from repeat clients and referrals. That trust means everything to me, and I never take it for granted. Service Areas I proudly serve: Colorado Springs Woodland Park Monument Fountain Falcon No matter where you are in your real estate journey, I would be honored to guide you home.
