A factual market snapshot around 912 S Dearborn Way.
Aurora’s condo market in 2026 favors properly priced, move‑in ready units under $150K. Inventory for small condos remains tight compared to the pool of first‑time buyers and investors seeking single‑bedroom rentals. Median single-family prices in the broader Aurora area sit well above this price point, which keeps demand strong among buyers priced out of single-family homes. Expect faster turn times for competitively priced sub-500 sqft condos; buyers should verify financing options, and investors should confirm rental comparables that currently place 1BR rents in the $1,100–$1,350/month range. Given recent appreciation in the Denver-Aurora corridor, this listing is positioned as an attractive entry or hold asset for modest appreciation and rental income.
