Real Estate Market Trends

If you're like a lot of other consumers, trite slogans and marketing come- ons aren't convincing. Especially when it comes to the most expensive investment you may ever make; numbers are far pithier.


Think about it -- which of these is of more value to you: “Now is the best time to buy or sell a house!” or “Real Estate Market Report for Yourtown, Yourstate?”


Not only is this section of ActiveRain chock full of up-to-date real estate market reports but market statistics and market trends as well. Best of all, they're written in plain English by the experts – those that actually work in these markets on a daily basis.

This week the median list price for Gilbert, AZ is $669,450 with the market action index hovering around 40. This is less than last month's market action index of 41. Inventory has increased to 626  Home sales continue to outstrip supply, and the Market Action Index has been moving higher for several weeks. This is a Seller’s market so watch for upward pricing pressure in the near future if the trend continues.  The market is hovering around this plateau. Look for a persistent change in the Market Action Index before we see prices deviate from these levels.   Each segment below represents approximately 25% of the market ordered by price.     YOUR   Latest activity in the VALLEY of the SUNFor ALL your Valley AZ Real Estate NeedsPHONE   Bill   at   602-999-0952Text          Bill   at    6...

From EDR to LSC: The New 2026 Metrics That Define Mountain Asset ValueIf you haven't looked at a property report in the last few months, the vocabulary of Big Bear real estate might look like a different language.
