Policy Costs Driving Colorado Housing Prices | Colorado Springs News
Description
A new report reveals that Colorado’s skyrocketing housing costs aren’t just due to materials or land—they’re being driven by local policies. A study from the Common Sense Institute shows that fees, taxes, and approval delays can add over $40,000 to a standard home’s cost in Denver—more than double the average in other major cities. These policy-driven expenses, especially in Front Range suburbs, are making homes unaffordable and slowing construction, pushing residents and businesses out. When housing costs eclipse job benefits, the state risks losing its economic edge.
