A growing north-metro town
with high medians and moderate timelines.
Redfin has described the Erie housing market as somewhat competitive. Zillow data for June 2026 shows a citywide median sale price of about $756,000, up 5.0 percent year over year, and as of July 2026 homes were going pending in about 37 days on average.
Zillow's typical home value for Erie was about $724,000 in July 2026, down 1.8 percent in typical home value year over year, which suggests the rising sale median owes something to larger, newer homes making up more of the mix. ZIP-level data for 80516 (which covers much of Erie) shows a somewhat competitive market with a January 2026 median of about $719,000, essentially flat (down 0.14 percent) year over year, and median price per square foot around $237, up 8.2 percent year over year. In that period, homes in 80516 sold in about 80 days on average compared with 62 days a year earlier, with 151 homes sold over the prior 12 months vs. 169 the year before.
Within Erie, Old Town Erie has moved differently: in early-2026 snapshots, medians around the mid-$400Ks to mid-$400Ks+ were down roughly 10–24 percent year over year while price-per-foot rose to the mid-$300s, and days-on-market improved, showing how older cores can re-price even as newer master-planned areas remain expensive.
“Erie feels like a higher-priced, still-growing alternative to core Boulder, with more space and newer homes.”

Why Erie feels like
a premium Boulder-corridor alternative.
One of the Front Range's fastest-growing towns is investing in its streets and utilities while its historic core keeps drawing new businesses, and that growth keeps pricing firm.
Erie has grown to roughly 43,000 residents, up more than 40 percent in population since the 2020 census, at about 5 percent annual population growth, as master-planned neighborhoods keep adding homes.
Phase 2 of the town's street paving program runs through fall 2026 across Vista Ridge and Old Town, and Erie recently took ownership of more than 1,300 streetlights from Xcel Energy as part of modernizing its infrastructure.
Downtown Erie's historic business district continues drawing dining, retail, and professional services, while older-core homes re-price on a different track than the newer master-planned areas.

Erie mortgage FAQs
Are Erie home prices still rising?+
Yes, at the citywide level. Zillow's June 2026 data shows the median sale price up about 5.0 percent year over year, though the typical home value is down about 1.8 percent year over year, and ZIP 80516 was closer to flat in early 2026.
How long do homes take to sell?+
About 37 days on average to go pending as of July 2026. Earlier 2026 data for ZIP 80516 ran closer to 80 days, so timelines vary by location and property type.
Will I need a jumbo loan in Erie?+
Sometimes, yes. Many Erie homes push into or above conforming limits, especially newer master-planned product. We compare jumbo and conventional options side by side.
How do taxes and HOA dues affect my approval?+
We use Boulder or Weld County tax estimates plus any HOA or metro-district dues to calculate your full monthly payment, then base your approval on that number.
When should I refinance an Erie home?+
When the new rate and terms clearly improve your long-term cost or flexibility. We compare multiple scenarios before recommending a refinance.
