Here is the most recent Scottsdale AZ Real Estate Housing Market Report for May 2021:
The average sales price of homes in Scottsdale increased over $56,000 between April and May, and is now at an all-time high of $1,247,173. At the same time, the average sold price per square foot increased from $362/sf to $380/sf in May.
After decreasing for three straight months, days on market remained the same in May as it was in April, at an all-time low of 36 DOM.
Scottsdale home sales slightly decreased in May from 647 to 631, the first decrease this year. Even though they decreased, Scottsdale home sales are still 97.8% higher than May of 2020. This is mainly due to the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down the economy last March, and continuing throughout last year. A decrease in home sales for May is unusual since we are in the high buying season, and more homes are typically sold in May than any other time of the year.
The number of new Scottsdale listings increased by 91 in May, up from 558 to 649, and they are now 28.3% higher than May of last year. The number of active listings decreased slightly this month from 1,319 to 1,285, and are still down -35.8% from May of last year.
The lack of listings continues to drive demand and home prices higher, so if the number of active Scottsdale homes for sale continues to be less than in previous years, expect home values to continue to increase.
With that said, median home values in Scottsdale have increased an average of 46.8% since May of 2020, which is amazing. With interest rates remaining around 3.0%, there will still be more buyers looking to purchase a Scottsdale home in 2021.
