Median Monthly Cost

Mortgage + taxes + insurance at 6.1% on a 30-year fixed loan with no down payment. This is what a median-priced home actually costs per month.

↑ 81%

vs. January 2020

Monthly cost was $1,890 in Jan 2020 (median $325K at 3.62%). This measures how much more (or less) it costs to buy the same median home today.

52%

Payment-to-Income Ratio

Median monthly cost as a share of El Paso County median household income ($79,026/yr). Under 28% is considered affordable by most lenders.

What This Means

Affordability constraints and softening demand are giving buyers more leverage. Sellers need to price competitively from day one — the market punishes overpricing.
