While the stock market’s been a little shaky, real estate is still going strong! According to NAR’s chief economist, household wealth in housing keeps hitting new highs, and mortgage delinquencies are super low. On the new-build side, tariffs are driving up material costs—adding nearly $11K per home—but buyers are still showing up, thanks in part to builder incentives. For resale homeowners, most are sitting on sub-6% mortgage rates (aka golden handcuffs), making moves less tempting unless life demands it. And don’t forget the all-cash crowd—26% of March’s sales didn’t even involve a mortgage! The market’s shifting, but housing continues to hold its ground :) #goodthingsahead
Arizona Real Estate Market Update: A Window of Opportunity?
April 2025 // For the first time in over a decade, housing supply levels in the Arizona market have returned to what we would consider "normal" territory. This is significant—after years of inventory shortages, buyers are now seeing more options, and that’s a refreshing shift. Even better, April is showing encouraging signs of improved buyer demand, adding a bit of momentum to what has been a hesitant market.
According to market expert Tina Tamboer, this may actually be one of the best times to buy, suggesting we could be at or near the bottom of the market cycle. That said, much of this optimism hinges on one key factor: mortgage rates.
Following a recent tariff announcement that shook the stock market, mortgage rates have dipped to their lowest levels in over five months. If this downward trend continues—as many economists are predicting—we could see a healthy bump in contracts and buyer activity. Lower rates mean more buying power, and that’s exactly the kind of fuel today’s market needs.
The luxury segment has held strong, but it’s not immune to turbulence. With ongoing stock market volatility, there’s potential for a softening in high-end sales. If that happens and lower price point activity picks up, the data could misleadingly suggest a drop in home values. In reality, it may just reflect a shift in market share.
In this current buyer-friendly climate, the increase in available listings is starting to put downward pressure on pricing, especially in more saturated neighborhoods. For sellers, this means pricing strategically is more important than ever. For buyers, this could signal a unique opportunity to secure a home before rates or prices shift again.

Future of Real Estate // 4th Quarter of 2020
Since the pandemic broke out, people are making moves! People want space -more social distancing type of living environments. Men and Women are working from home more than ever! The housing market continues to STAY STRONG while America is figuring out ways to live within the continued COVID19 pandemic.
With elections coming up this fall, some Buyers and Sellers are treading lightly and waiting to see how things pan out. Most people don’t acknowledge or put together the timing of election and it being in 4th quarter. Those who know -they get it.
Fourth quarter seasonally declines every year. With sales then resuming in January - May of quarter 1. Also just in time for the PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION in 2021.
If you are one of those people who are waiting for a sign to #INVESTINREALESATE // look no further! There will always be time to respond to a CHANGE IN THE MARKET — and things will shift, thats how real estate goes! But for now, its #lowinterest rates, high BUYER DEMAND && not enough SUPPLY to meet that request.
*FRIENDLY REMINDER // The United States housing bubble was a real estate bubble affecting over half of the U.S. states. Housing prices peaked in early 2006, started to decline in 2006 and 2007, and reached new lows in 2012. On December 30, 2008, the Case–Shiller home price index reported its largest price drop in its history.
