Get the scoop on the Phoenix area real estate market including the impact of mortgage rates and seller concessions.

For Buyers:

Not a lot of changes are happening in the housing market right now. It's as if both buyers and sellers are in a holding pattern awaiting a sign before making a move. Conventional mortgage rates have held steady in the high 6% and low 7% range for nearly 3 months now with little signs of a decline yet, keeping contract activity restricted since the 4th of July and overall demand 22% below normal for this time of year.

The continuous drop in supply we've been experiencing since October has slowed and flattened out over the past 6 weeks as well, but still 52% below normal for the past month and 39% below last year's supply count.

After 200% Increase, Supply Still Nearly 40% Below Normal

Sale Prices Up 3.5% Since December

For Buyers:

Rates defied industry predictions once again and rose over a point from 5.99% to 7.1% between February 2nd and March 2nd. For the past 4 weeks, rates have hovered in the upper 6% range, figuratively "pinching the hose" on demand during the popular Spring season for buyers. At 9,001, contracts are at their 4th lowest count since 2005, the lowest counts were in 2006-2008 and normal range is 11,000-13,000.
