Current Stats for Metro Phoenix, AZ

Well, depending on what side of the table you are sitting on, this information can be viewed either way.  For a short while, at least the previous 2 months, I have been telling my clients and customers that we were in what I believed to be a "balanced" market.  The stats that the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Services just released confirmed that my belief was right, but the speculation now, is that we are going to move into a "Buyers" market again - at least here in the metro Phoenix, area. 

Some experts believe, and are touting, that 2014 is going to be the year that the real estate market corrects itself.  I am not as optimistic.  Not because I am a negative Nellie.  It s because the employment stats, coupled with all of the new lending regulations are going to cause havoc in the market... at least initially.

The following stats are based on year-over-year "yoy" or month-over-month, "mom" stats for the years 2012 - 2013, and then January 2013-January 2014.  You can call me with any questions you may have if you need to.

The "yoy" number of sales are -17.1% and "mom" -19.6%

New inventory "yoy" is up (this is good news for Buyers) +10.7% and "mom" +79.5%.

Sales prices are up "yoy" 17.8% and "mom" 16.5%.

With an average of 79 days on the market.
