GO WEST to Arizona! Hey the sun sets in the west and amazing sunsets await. Settle down, buy a home. Many people are still taking the advice "Go West Young Man!" and move west for a new life and new adventures. Folks are buying homes and moving to the Sun Belt states and will continue to HEAT UP during 2026 in real estate. Arizona is one of the HOTSPOTS again this year. Folks seem to be tired of the cold winters and constant talk of global warming. How do we know this? They are moving from colder states to the warmer states and not the other way around.

The National Association of Realtors called for metro Phoenix to be one of the top 10 housing markets in the U.S. in 2025, based on economic and demographic data.
Per Snejan Farberov in Realtor.com in 2025, "The Sun Belt continues to heat up while economists anticipate a modest improvement in the housing inventory on the national level amid gradually decreasing mortgage rates and an easing of the lock-in effect, two U.S. regions continue to outperform the rest of the country."

The top 10 markets for 2026 are exclusively in the Sunbelt including Texas, Florida, and Arizona

The Valley’s strong population, job and income growth are driving its economy and making economists and market watchers optimistic about its housing market.
What should I do in 2026?
What does this all mean. Don't wait to buy a home, prices will only go up in 2026. Even if mortgage rates are not what you want them to be (currently about 6%) one can always refinance the rate later on. Mortgage rates are much closer to all-time lows than they are to all-time highs. Renting only leads to future rent increases and no building of equity through pay down on mortgage and future appreciation on the home. Buy your home and start building wealth now.
