I think it’s important to watch our market and to pay attention to how many active listings and how many homes are under contract or pending. As of today, April 3, 2009, there were 45,694 Active and 11,896 Pending Listings in our MLS.
On March 19 - 15 days ago - our inventory of active listings across the board (including Single Family, townhomes, condos, mobile homes, etc.) was 48,837 – down 3,143 - active listings! AND we had 10,869 – up just over 1,000 - pending or under contract.
I have listed below the numbers representing ONLY the Single Family Residents - Active and the Pending as of today in the city and/or the zip code designated: Maybe next time I'll figure out how to break it down into other columns of info such as dates, etc.

Teri, That's wonderful news that you have that many pending sales added in a 3 week period.
Hi Teri...Sounds like your market is changing, Wow looks like 26% of your Listings are Selling. I think folks will look back and say "we should have bought last Winter".
Cheers, Thanks for sharing your market stats for Phoenix and Mesa Arizona.
Teri
Looks like your market is coming alive; is there really a better time to call you for any buyer considering buying a home in your area? I think the time is now to call Teri Ellis for anyone even contemplating buying a home in phoenix and all surrounding areas.
Sincerely
Tom
That's encouraging! Wonder if we'll lag your market as much coming back as we did going down?
Marchel, it was just over two weeks...tracking each day or so helps me notice what the trends are..;-)
Fred, I think many people will look back and think that. ;-)
Tom, LOL...you're funny. BUT right. ;-)
Ann, how is your market? I would think we would all be the same, and I would think that your area would have stayed pretty level....
Great News Teri, I am going to check out our MLS for the statistics. I think we are way up for pendings also. And there are even more pendings than stated because the banks are taking their time in accepting offers!
Good to hear there has been an improvement in your market. We are experiencing the same thing here. It feels great!
Great news to hear things are shaking and baking with you as well!!!
Teri: I agree, consumers want to know what is happening in their areas. You've done a good job giving them the info they need.
Are market appears to be getting stronger also. Nice to see the pending increase.
Jane, great idea...they've even increased since this post. ;-)
Bill, it does, doesn't it? Our brains can start to remember how it was. ;-)
Jeannette, I think it's happening everyone pretty much...
Kat, thanks so much. I like knowing as well. ;-)
Terry, great!!!
Teri, great news! Wow, that makes your MLS seem HUGE compared to our MLS.
