Hey, it’s Chris Dunham — The Real Estate Guy™ — and I want to give you a quick, boots-on-the-ground update on what’s really happening in the market across Maricopa and Pinal counties as we roll through May 2025.Back in April, the median sale price in Maricopa County was sitting at $542,000, while Pinal County held steady around $380,000.

We also have 8,837 homes under contract, and inventory has dropped to 3.61 months, down from nearly five months in January. Translation: the mar...

Being in sales for many decades, I was taught by my father who was a professional salesman to not expend much time looking back to yesterday, but rather to invest time thinking forward to tomorrow.  Ruminating or pondering on what might have been is a waste of time as one cannot change the past.  However, thinking about what happened today and what I may change tomorrow is far more productive and important.Today, I focus on going forward, thinking about tomorrow and not to yesterday.A Little HistoryWhen I first considered entering the real estate industry, I expressed to my future broker, Judith Ritter,  I wanted to be part-time.  Well, most of us know real estate is not part time. Lesson learned within my first 30 days.Given my sales background, I believed I would be a better buyer’s a...

Even though I truly love selling dirt, vacant land, occasionally I do list and sell a home on dirt. This listing came from an encounter with a neighbor and a relationship that was established.Open houses here in Kingman, AZ often do not attract a lot of visitors. Often those visitors are other real estate agents who wish to tour the property or just nibble on the goodies.This past weekend  I held my second open house in eight (8) years. And I did have one visitor about 20 minutes before closing the  2 hour open house.My one and only visitor was identifying residential properties for this brother who lived out of town. We chatted extensively about our heritages, our recipes. our work experiences and our overview of the changing world. The visitor started the political discussion and than...
