Low sales matched by a low number of houses hitting the market. Market kinda balanced!

Monthly Median Sold Price

The median price has been more or less flat since December after falling fast from May to December. We’re in the high season for Phoenix real estate now so, if prices are going to increase, it will be now through June.

Despite low numbers of houses being sold, prices aren’t falling because people are putting an unusually low number of houses up for sale, too. So, the number of houses for sale is less than in 2019, pre-Covid.
