On average, homes are selling for less than their appraised value. There appears to be a disconnect between the amount a home is appraised for and the actual sales price of the home. According to financial services company Progress in Lending Association, home appraisal values were higher than sales prices 51% of the time during the first half of 2024. This is the largest gap between appraisals and sales prices recorded since 2020, when 42% of homes were appraised above their sales price. As of June 2024, the average over-appraisal was 9% across all housing markets studied.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said.
