Ongoing Housing Deficit: Significant shortage remains despite recent construction efforts, indicating continued high demand. Stable Demand: Tens of thousands of new homes needed even without population growth, ensuring a strong market for developers. Affordability Issues: Only 5.1% of households in Denver can afford to buy, highlighting the need for more affordable housing options. Legislative Support: New Colorado law banning occupancy limits can increase demand for new homes as more individuals establish separate households. Rising Construction Needs: The housing deficit rose from 4.3 million units in 2021 to 4.5 million in 2022, underscoring the urgent need for new housing developments.
