Out-of-town house-hunters in Denver hold a budget nearly 15% bigger than locals looking for new homes, according to a recent Redfin analysis.
By the numbers: That gap between maximum allowances comes out to an average of $901,386 for newcomers compared to locals with $785,171, the data shows.
- Redfin found that people who were relocating in 42 of 49 cities had bigger budgets for homes than existing residents.
- Out of the 42, Denver ranked 12th, and no other cities in the state made the list.
