 - Unlike REO properties, which have bounced around a bit, Short Sale prices have been slowly and steadily increasing over the past 6 months.

 - Even though they are a small percentage of total sales Short Sales Pending are the biggest bottle neck in that category, and Short Sale Days On Market are more than triple that of Traditional (Normal) Sales.

What does this mean for buyers and sellers in Anthem, AZ 85086 :

 - If you are thinking of buying an Anthem home in the next year or two, why would you wait? Prices will continue to rise and interest rates have no where to go but up.  Buy now and get a lot more home for your money.

 - If you are thinking of selling your Anthem home in the next 12 months why not list it now, competition (other active listings) is still very low but, as you can see, increasing each month and if mortgage rates begin to rise the number of eligible buyers for your home will decrease.

 - If you are considering moving from a smaller to a larger home there has never been a better time to do so. Smaller homes are selling quickly and in many cases above list price while there are still some great bargains available in homes larger than 3000 sq.ft.
