Phoenix Valley and Mesa, Arizona ~ Sold Real Estate Data for January-July 2008

Since January, I have been noticing more transactions closing and wanted to come up with some numbers to share so we can see and compare what is happening in our Mesa, Arizona and the Phoenix Valley. 

I had bookmarked and today finally reviewed the video explaining just how to do a graph presented by none other than Jeff Turner. It's located in Google Docs, and after quite some time, I was able to turn out a finished product. I "tried" to figure out how to change colors for each month, but couldn't. I don't think I have enough columns since I was only focused on closed sales. I'm glad I spent the time figuring it out....it is a great tool.

Since the graph only shows in round numbers, I've given you the exact numbers of closings which are as follows:

  • January 2008 - 2869
  • February 2008 - 3416
  • March 2008 - 4255
  • April 2008 - 4812
  • May 2008 - 5603
  • June 2008 - 5724
  • July 2008 - 6005

Do you see a trend? I sure do. The graph is pretty cool even without the different colors. ;-)

Phoenix, Arizona MLS Stats as of April 2, 2008

It's time to share what is going on in our market. Just FYI, all of the nay-sayers and negative news doesn't necessarily reflect the "real" truth.

As my readers know, I keep a daily tally of active listings and of listings that are under contract. I have been seeing the numbers creep up. For instance - by way of example - we had 3,897 pending as of January 23! As of April 2, 2008, 6,850!!! I remember - January 2005 - just under 7,000 total active listings in our entire MLS. So, what do you think? Could this be a trend?

MLS Inventory April 8, 2008


I'll let you decide, but I think that buyers who are ready to purchase a home, or sellers wanting to sell, JUST MIGHT want to consider making their move while: interest rates are low, there is plenty of inventory, and sellers are willing to negotiate!
