Buyer Leverage Returns to the Desert
After two years of scarcity, Arizona buyers are catching a break. Inventory climbed to ~26k active listings in November (from ~24k in Sept). The Cromford Market Index sits around 78 — a buyer’s market (< 90).
Median price ~$450k, flat m/m, with half of listings showing price cuts or long DOM. Builders are back to rate buydowns as low as 3.9–4.0% and closing credits up to $55k.
Policy notes: Arizona REALTORS® released revised Solar and Clause Addenda, and ADRE’s 2025 Law Book highlights deed-fraud and fire-wise education.
Quick Takeaway: Rates are steady, inventory is high, and builders are motivated — the perfect trifecta for Arizona buyers this fall.
