Market Analysis
What's moving ZIP 85250 right now.
The housing market in ZIP 85250 is currently classified as Very Weak. Inventory levels have significantly increased over the past year, contributing to a softening in the median listing price and a decline in pending activity. While median days on market have decreased, the overall metrics indicate a market with reduced demand relative to supply.
Active listings have expanded substantially, showing a 27.3% year-over-year increase, complemented by a 25.0% rise in new listings over the same period. The median listing price has seen a 6.9% decrease year-over-year, despite a slight month-over-month gain of 0.5%. The pending ratio, currently at 0.20, has declined by 9.4% year-over-year, indicating a slower absorption of available homes. Median days on market have compressed by 25.3% over the past year to 70 days, while the share of price-reduced listings has also decreased year-over-year by 6.7% to 23.5%. The median price per square foot is down 5.7% year-over-year.
The notable increase in active and new listings points to growing inventory pressure, reducing competition for available properties. This expanding supply, coupled with a declining pending ratio, indicates that prospective purchasers have increased capacity for price discipline and negotiation. The significant year-over-year decline in the median listing price reflects an environment where price adjustments are more common due to reduced demand relative to supply.
The average listing price of $914,601 significantly exceeds the median listing price of $675,000, suggesting a distinct premium for properties at the higher end of the market. The average listing price has decreased by 12.5% year-over-year, outpacing the decline in the median price. The median price per square foot stands at $403.
