Here are two more items we use to better understand the Scottsdale real estate market:
On the top, we have a comparison between the current month and the month prior. So, for instance, pending sales were up 10.2% in April over the end of March. It is an easy way to check the momentum of the market.
On the bottom, we have sales price to list price, which compares average sales prices to the average listing price. In April, it was the same as March at 96.3%. So, on average, buyers saw a 3.7% discount off of asking prices.
*Figures for active homes for sale, UCB sales and pending sales are based on the numbers at the end of the month.
