Berthoud
Berthoud runs 6.2 months of single-family supply — the only corridor town above the six-month buyer's-market line, and the only one that loosened this year. Its median then fell $132,500 in one release on 26 sales, the construction-mix artifact this report warns you not to price off.
Loveland
Loveland's single-family supply fell from 4.0 months to 2.8 in a year — and its median went nowhere, flat at $527,750 year to date. Tightness and price are different variables, and Loveland is the corridor's clearest proof. Why the move-up band above the median behaves differently again.
Longmont
Longmont tightened to 2.7 months of supply while Boulder held flat at 4.5, so the gap widened rather than closed. Homes go under contract in 43 days against Boulder's 87. The year-to-date median is down 2.4%. All three are true at once, and together they price a move-up trade.
Boulder
Boulder's single-family median rose to $1,355,000 in July while days on market jumped to 87 — both moved the same way, which is the tell. Supply held flat at 4.5 months. That median isn't your price: the move-up band straddles it, and the luxury tail above behaves nothing like the middle.
