Lynne's Arizona Market Stats

Greetings,

 I thought you might find the below housing market stats of interest:

Maricopa County active listings	13,318
Maricopa County active SINGLE FAMILY listings	10,399
Maricopa County active SINGLE FAMILY listings (3+ bedrooms)	8,451
Scottsdale active SINGLE FAMILY listings (3+ bedrooms)	1,636
Scottsdale active SINGLE FAMILY listings (3+ bedrooms)	Under $300,000 Under $500,000 Under $750,000 Under $1,000,000	118 445 785 1,044

What does all of this mean?

• The market is BACK.  If you are interested in putting your home on the market NOW is the time to do it. 

• If you are interested in purchasing a home in Scottsdale NOW is the time to do so as prices will be increasing as the market inventory decreases.

• Financing is at an all time low.

If you have any questions related to real estate or are contemplating putting your home on the market/purchasing a home, please call me at 602-885-5143 or e-mail me at lynne@lynnenash.com.

Create a great day for yourself,

Lynne
