I decided again this month to look to Trulia to help me give you a more a detailed analysis of what's going on in the Phoenix and Scottsdale real estate markets. A couple of notes:
- Median sales price, recently sold, and foreclosures numbers are based on public records
- Average listing price, homes for sale and open homes numbers are based on Trulia listings
Phoenix
The median sales price of homes in Phoenix during the June-August period was $97,448 (based on 10,200 home sales). That's up 4.8% from the May-July period, but still 39.9% lower than the same period one year ago. But while the median price is much lower than last year, the number of sales is much higher - up 40.2% over 2008. There are currently 19,293 homes in the pre-foreclosure, auction, or bank-owned stages of the foreclosure process.
