The average CMI is down 1.3% from last month. This represents a small deterioration in the situation for sellers. Supply is coming down slowly, but demand is falling slightly faster. Both changes are barely detectable unless you peer into the numbers for a long time.

The number of cities moving in a direction favorable to buyers is ten, the same as last week. We have eight moving in a direction that is favorable to sellers. Scottsdale and Paradise Valley have improved the most for sellers (+8%), with Peoria just behind at +7%. In the other direction, Tempe is still showing a big move in favor of buyers at -11%, but has been overtaken by San Tan Valley (-12%). The Southeast Valley is looking weak relative to the rest of Greater Phoenix, with the Northeast and West holding up better.

We once again have 8 cities in a seller’s market, 4 balanced, and 6 in a buyer’s market.
