Metro Phoenix is making headlines as one of the more buyer-friendly housing markets right now. In fact, 70% of the top 100 U.S. metros are either favoring buyers or trending that direction—the highest we've seen since 2019. Seller’s markets have slipped to just 25%. Listing prices have dropped in 60 metros, with the South tilting toward buyers and the Midwest still holding steady for sellers.
What does this mean here in the Valley? It’s a clear sign that pricing strategically and understanding local trends matter more than ever. Gone are the days of listing high and waiting. I rely on ARMLS data to price right and market smart, and when the standard sale isn’t a fit, creative solutions—like seller financing or loan assumptions—can open new doors. If you’re weighing your next move in Metro Phoenix, know that you have options, and a path forward that fits your goals. No sugar-coating—just the real market, and real answers.
