(24:10) Find out the latest about the AZ Real Estate Market thanks to our friends at the Cromford Report.
The sellers market continues. We have low supply in the Valley and it's getting worse. We have had the lowest number of active listings at the end of 2021 that has ever been recorded.
Looking at this month, January, compared to a year ago. We are down 4.5% in active listings from 2021. Down over 15% in supply from last month.
The monthly average sales price per square foot is $267.31. That's up 28% from last January and just over 1% from last month.
Our monthly median sales price sits at $425,000.
Last year, at this time, it was $332,000. That's up 28%.
To those that continue to think the market is cooling off, the real world data does not agree.
The housing market heated up in the last 10 weeks of 2021 and starts 2022 with a huge excess of demand over supply. This is not because of colossal demand.
It is because of the unusually low supply.
We normally see a strong flow of new listings in January while buyers tend to stay quiet until February. It's too early to tell if that will occur in 2022.
It did NOT occur in 2021 and this was a striking reminder that the market was abnormal.
In the next 4 weeks we will find out if the market remains in an abnormal state.
Prices continued to advance during December, more than 1% higher over the month. It would be surprising if we don't see at least a 3% increase over the next 3 months.
The Cromford report says its money woul be on a move in excess of this, but nobody knows for sure what the future will bring, and the market continues to spring surprises on everyone.
