13 Denver Real Estate Strategies Ranked A to F for 2027
The 2027 Denver real estate report card is here. Chris Lopez just graded 13 investing strategies A through F for 2027. Three earn an A, one gets a flat F, and the classic long-term rental drops to a D for 2027. Here’s which strategies Chris is actually putting his own money into for the new year.

Is Denver real estate still worth buying in 2027? Or is it time to pull your money out and park it somewhere else entirely?

With 2027 right around the corner, Denver real estate strategies in 2027 are not going to look like 2022 or 2023. The math has changed. Rents, rates, and prices have moved. Legislation keeps shifting. And a lot of the plays investors used to run on autopilot just do not pencil anymore.

So Chris Lopez is sitting down to do something simple. He is grading 13 Denver real estate investing strategies A to F for 2027, like a report card. Which ones still work. Which ones to walk away from. And where he is actually putting his own capital heading into the new year.

Chris gets into why he sold rentals and shut down Envision Advisors, why private lending and non-performing loans are getting his new capital for 2027, and which strategies he thinks busy professionals should avoid completely.

A quick preview. Three strategies earn an A for 2027. One gets a flat F. The classic long-term rental drops to a D. And flipping splits into two very different grades depending on price point.

In This Episode We Cover:

  • The 3 Denver strategies still earning an A in 2027
  • Why long-term rentals dropped to a D for 2027 and the math behind it
  • The one asset class that actually cheers for higher rates in 2027
  • Why out-of-state turnkey rentals earn a flat F for 2027
  • How house hacking and co-living still hit double-digit cash flow in 2027
  • The K-shaped 2027 flipping market, high-end vs mid-price
