Historically, our neighborhoods will outperform in bull markets and will provide some insulation in bear markets because of the location premium. In January of 2023, Goldman Sachs called for a 25% drop in Phoenix home prices. We can tell you as local experts that the national headlines are not in step with what we are seeing here in the Arcadia and Biltmore neighborhoods. Our markets have been extremely resilient and are still lacking an ample amount of inventory. There are currently only 18 homes for sale in Arcadia Proper and 8 homes for sale in the Biltmore. Additionally, the higher end homes are still attracting cash heavy buyers who are not as reliant on loans and interest rates. Although some homes are taking longer to sell, it is still very much a seller’s market and we haven’t seen any significant devaluations. If you are noticing price reductions it is because the home is probably not up to today’s buyer standards or may lie in a peculiar location such as backing Camelback Rd. While pricing has remained strong, it is important that sellers stay patient when listing their home. On average over the past quarter, homes in the Camelback Corridor are taking around 65 days to sell compared with just 40 days in the 2021-2022 frenzy. We remain bullish on the market and will continue to keep you posted throughout 2024 with monthly updates. If you have any questions about the price or marketability of your home, do yourself a favor and reach out to us. Your home value is probably stronger than you think! There is an old saying in real estate that goes like this... Location, Location, Location.
