Timescale: Long Term

Trustee Sales by City and ZIP Code

About this chart

This chart counts the Trustee’s Deeds recorded each month: the deed recorded after a foreclosure auction. Each bar is split by what happened at the auction: the home reverted to the lender (beneficiary), sold to a third party, or the outcome was not recorded.

It opens on Maricopa and Pinal Counties (records from 2002). Cochise, Coconino, Mohave, Santa Cruz, and Yavapai Counties can be added; each shows the year its records begin. Vacant land and commercial property are left out by default.

Use the County, City, and ZIP panels to focus on any area. Narrow it with the Outcome and Property Type boxes and the sale price, loan amount, home size, and year built sliders. Use the date slider, or Full range, to choose the stretch of history shown.

Notices of Trustee Sale by Region

About this chart

This chart counts the Notices of Trustee Sale recorded each month: the document a lender records when it starts to foreclose on a home. Many are later canceled, for example when the owner sells or catches up on payments, so this is an early sign of distress rather than a count of foreclosures.

Records run from 1996. Vacant land and commercial property are left out by default.

Use the Region panel to focus on one region or a combination of them. Narrow it with the Property Type box and the loan amount, home size, and year built sliders. Use the date slider, or Full range, to choose the stretch of history shown.

Contract Fall-Through Rate by City and ZIP Code

About this chart

This chart shows the contract fall-through rate, measured every week: the share of accepted contracts that ended without the home closing, for example because financing or an inspection failed. The lines show a 5-week average to smooth out week-to-week noise.

By default contracts are counted by the date they were accepted and include Pending and UCB / CCBS contracts. Rate Basis switches to the date each contract ended, and Listing Status can limit it to Pending contracts only.

Each year has its own line, laid out by week of the year, so you can compare this year with earlier years at the same point in the season. It opens on the last three years; tick any year back to 2011 in the Year panel.

It opens on Maricopa and Pinal Counties with every city and ZIP code included. Use the County, City, and ZIP panels to focus on any area, from a whole county down to a single ZIP code. Narrow it with the Dwelling Type, Transaction Type, and New / Resale boxes and the list price, home size, and days under contract sliders.

Cromford® Demand Index and Cromford® Supply Index

About this chart

This chart plots the Cromford® Supply Index and Demand Index together for the whole ARMLS market, all areas and all dwelling types, one reading on the 1st of each month since January 2001. Above 100 means more supply or demand than usual and below 100 less than usual; between 90 and 110 counts as within the normal range.

The options add the Market Index as a third line, switch to a logarithmic axis, mark each year at July or January, and label the minimum, maximum, and latest values. Use the date slider, or Full range, to choose the stretch of history shown.

The Cromford® Market Index as a Predictor of Future Annual Price Appreciation

About this chart

This chart sets the Cromford® Market Index beside annual appreciation for the whole ARMLS market, all areas and all dwelling types, one reading on the 1st of each month since January 2002, with the rate of inflation (Consumer Price Index) alongside. It shows how a shift in the balance between buyers and sellers has been followed by a change in prices.

A reading below 90 indicates a buyer’s market, above 110 a seller’s market, and between 90 and 110 a balanced market. Appreciation is the change in the average sales price per square foot over the last 12 months compared with a year earlier.

The options label the minimum, maximum, and latest values and switch the Market Index to a logarithmic axis. Use the date slider, or Full range, to choose the stretch of history shown. Hover over the chart to see the figures for that month.
