Arizona Real Estate Market Data

Median prices, days on market, foreclosure trends, and wholesale-specific data for Maricopa and Pinal County, Arizona.

Last updated: July 1, 2026 (figures below are sourced from public Redfin/Zillow market data as of the dates cited per city — Benny should re-verify quarterly and cross-check against ARMLS, the local MLS, before relying on these for actual pricing decisions)

Real public data, but cross-check before relying on it The figures below are pulled from public Redfin and Zillow market data (see per-city "as of" dates and the Data Sources section) — not fabricated placeholders. That said, Redfin (median of actual closed sales) and Zillow (a modeled home-value index, "ZHVI"/Zestimate) use different methodologies and won't match each other exactly, and neither is the local MLS. Benny should cross-check against ARMLS before using any of these numbers in an actual seller conversation or offer calculation, and refresh this page quarterly since these figures move.

Days on Market by Area

Maricopa County-wide: homes sell after a median of about 56 days on market per Redfin (vs. 55 days the prior year), while Zillow's "days to pending" metric — a different, typically shorter measure — runs closer to 20–25 days in Phoenix and Mesa specifically. Tucson runs longer by most measures (Redfin cites ~64 days; another source cites ~82 days), and the City of Maricopa (Pinal County) is notably slower at around 103 days per Redfin — consistent with the general pattern that outer Pinal County submarkets move slower than the Maricopa County core. These numbers shift by season and price tier, so treat them as a general read on relative speed between areas rather than a precise current figure for any single listing.

Foreclosure Filing Trends

Rather than citing specific foreclosure filing counts (which we do not have a live feed for and will not fabricate), the general trend worth watching is directional: foreclosure and pre-foreclosure activity in Arizona tends to move with broader economic conditions such as employment levels, interest rates, and mortgage forbearance policy. Investors and sellers should treat any specific filing-count claim with caution unless it is sourced directly from RealtyTrac, Maricopa County Recorder trustee sale notices, or a similarly reliable public record source. Benny: pull current trustee sale notice counts from the Maricopa County Recorder and/or RealtyTrac before publishing any specific figure here.

Price Per Square Foot by City

Verified for Phoenix and Mesa via Redfin (3 mo. ending May 2026); other cities not yet confirmed with a per-sqft figure from a public source, so they're left as a general illustrative range pending verification rather than guessed precisely.

CityPrice/Sq Ft
Phoenix$279 (Redfin, verified)
Mesa$265 (Redfin, verified)
ChandlerNot yet verified — illustrative: $250–$290
GilbertNot yet verified — illustrative: $255–$295
ScottsdaleNot yet verified — illustrative: $400–$500 (median sale price here is roughly double Phoenix's, so per-sqft likely runs well above the core-metro range)
TempeNot yet verified — illustrative: $250–$290
Casa GrandeNot yet verified — illustrative: $175–$210
TucsonNot yet verified — illustrative: $190–$220

Year-Over-Year Appreciation Rates

Verified YoY changes as of this writing (see the tables above for the same figures per city): Phoenix +0.9%, Mesa −0.9%, Peoria +2.7%, Glendale ≈0%, Casa Grande +4.1%, Maricopa (city) −4.3%, Tucson −1.6% to −1.8% depending on source. Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale, and Tempe didn't have a clean YoY figure in the sources checked — don't assume they follow the same trend as their neighbors; check Redfin's city page for each before quoting a number. Overall, Arizona's Phoenix metro was running roughly flat to slightly down across most of these cities as of mid-2026, not the steady appreciation the market saw in earlier years — a real shift worth knowing when setting seller expectations.

Wholesale-Specific Data

Average Assignment Fees in the Arizona Market

Assignment fees vary widely by deal size, property condition, and market, but as a general illustrative range, many Arizona wholesalers target somewhere in the neighborhood of $5,000–$15,000+ per deal, with larger or higher-ARV properties sometimes commanding more. This is a general industry range, not a quote for any specific property, and actual fees depend on the deal's numbers. See our MAO formula article for how these numbers get calculated.

Repair Cost Index by City (Qualitative)

Rather than fabricate a precise cost-per-square-foot repair index, here is the general qualitative pattern worth knowing: labor and material costs tend to run somewhat higher in the core Phoenix metro (Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe) than in outlying Pinal County areas like Casa Grande, Maricopa, and Coolidge, largely due to contractor demand and cost of living differences. Older housing stock in central Phoenix neighborhoods can also carry higher repair costs due to outdated electrical, plumbing, and roofing systems compared to newer construction in the East Valley or Pinal County.

Hard Money Rates in Arizona

As a general, illustrative industry range (not this platform's own lending rate — we are not a lender), Arizona hard money loans for fix-and-flip or wholesale-adjacent purchases commonly run roughly 9%–14% interest plus 1–3 points, though actual terms vary significantly by lender, borrower experience, loan-to-value, and deal type. Always get quotes from multiple lenders and read the term sheet carefully. See our hard money lenders guide for more detail.

Title Company Cost Estimates

Title and escrow costs in Arizona typically include title insurance premiums, escrow/closing fees, and recording fees, which combined often fall in an illustrative range of roughly $1,500–$3,500 for a typical residential wholesale or cash transaction, though this varies by purchase price, county, and title company. Always request a written estimate from your title company before closing.
