Black Coloradoans Still Have Harder Path to Homeownership
According to the recent NAR report on the homeownership gap, only 43% of Black Americans can afford to buy a typical home, compared with 63% of white Americans and 54% of Hispanics. In Colorado, about 48% of white residents can afford to buy a typical home while 30% of Black and 32% of Latino people could afford homes here. CAR Market Trends from April showed that the median single-family home sale was $600,000 in Colorado and $660,000 in metro Denver. Both medians increased by about $100,000 from April 2021.
