Percentage of Flash Sales

About this chart

This chart shows flash sales as a percentage of all closings each month. A flash sale is a closing that spent 1 day or less in the MLS (0 or 1 days on market, cumulative), usually a home that sold as soon as it was listed or was listed only to record a sale already agreed.

It opens on 2016 to date; tick other years in the Year box to go back as far as 2001, and use the Month box to count only some months of the year. The chart is updated every day.

It opens on Maricopa and Pinal counties and single-family detached homes, as the original chart did. Use the County, City, and ZIP Code boxes to change the area, and narrow it further with the Dwelling Type and New / Resale boxes and the list price, home size, and year built sliders.

About this chart

Listing Success Rate by Price Range

About this chart

This chart shows the listing success rate each month for each list price range, a line per range. The listing success rate is the share of listings that closed, out of all the listings that ended: closed, expired, or cancelled. Each listing counts once, in the month (or window) its listing ended: the closing date for a closing, the expiration for an expired listing, the cancellation for a cancelled one. The highest price ranges have few listings, so their lines swing widely.

It opens on January 2016 to date; drag the handles of the date slider under the chart to choose the months shown, as far back as January 2004. The newest month is the month so far, shown as a hollow point. The chart is updated every day. Click a price range in the legend to hide or show its line.
