What’s happening in the Cheyenne real estate market?
The Laramie County Housing Study was published by the Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce during the month of October 2019. In the study, predictive statistics were utilized to see what the housing demand will be from 2019 to 2026. With a maintained population increase and with the existing inventory, along with the statistics of new homes being built annually, there is a deficit of 3,500 homes. Market value where the shortage resides the most is home values from $150,000 to $285,000. The Cheyenne Board of Realtors, Southeast Home Builders Association, City of Cheyenne, Laramie County and the Greater Cheyenne Chamber of Commerce are working toward solutions to supply the necessary housing to meet the needs of residents.
