Summary

  • We are in a stable Sellers Market
  • Rental supply is continuing to rise; highest number since 2018
  • FHA contracts are up!  In July, they represented 22% of all sales (this is up from 10% this time last year)
  • Investors and iBuyers are pulling out of the market.  Investor purchases were 12% of all purchases in July (down from 21% in Q2 2022)
  • Cash purchases have declined.  In July, they represented 19% of all sales (down from 33% in June 2022)

What’s reasonable to expect in the coming months?

  • Leading metrics in Greater Phoenix do not support continued downward pressure on price for most cities
  • YOY appreciation to hit positive in August or September
  • Supply and demand gap is still pretty big – because of this gap we should still see prices continue to rise
