🧠 What the Data Means

The slight price decline and longer days on market indicate a cooling from the peak, giving buyers more room for negotiation.

However, inventory has not surged, which keeps the market from shifting to a full buyer’s market.

This means:

  • Sellers can still secure solid results with a smart pricing strategy

  • Buyers have more time and options than earlier this year

  • Queen Creek remains highly desirable (demand hasn’t disappeared)


🔍 New Construction Stays Strong

Queen Creek continues to be one of the largest new-build markets in the East Valley.

Benefits buyers are seeing right now include:

  • Aggressive builder incentives

  • Rate buydowns to ease affordability

  • Move-in-ready homes with upgraded finishes

Quick Move-In Listings are especially active this fall.
