As someone who's called Arizona home for decades, I’ve seen the housing market shift through every season. Right now, buyers have a bit more breathing room, with median home prices settling around $443,611 and interest rates at 6.75%. It’s not uncommon to see price cuts or sellers offering concessions these days. While prices haven’t returned to the highs of the COVID boom, they’re still 46% above 2020 levels. Much of the current housing shortage comes from slow government approvals. I’m always here to help neighbors navigate these changes—your experience matters to me, and I believe in making it as smooth as possible.
