However, 2024 finished with 9 consecutive weeks of declining mortgage rates to a national average of 6.61% average … (8 comments)

phoenix home prices: November 2023 & What's Ahead Phoenix Metro Home Prices - 11/06/23 06:08 PM
The Phoenix Arizona metro home prices seemed to have leveled out with little changes during the past few months but up over this same period last year.

Remember you can "marry the house" when buying but "date the rate" as mortgage rates can always be refinanced. October 2023 will be the slowest in home sales since 2007 so this couldmean a Buyer's offer may be accepted due to the slow down in sales. Read on for more details.

phoenix home prices: September Phoenix Metro Home Prices Decline - 09/29/23 02:40 PM
Phoenix metro home prices are on the decline from a median $435K in August to $430K in September. Why?

(Photo: Dobbins Point Lookout over Phoenix, from Parks and Recreation website)
Further, Freddie Mac reported that "the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has hit the highest level since the year 2000.

phoenix home prices: Phoenix Metro Home Prices Decline - 08/26/23 11:51 AM
Phoenix metro home prices are on the decline from a median $443K in June to $435K in July and expected to remain flat in August. Why?
