Over the recent reporting period, active resale supply moved up 1.6% month-over-month. Closed transaction volume shifted by -1.8%, resulting in an absorption reading of 3.0 months.
Historically in the Phoenix metro area, 4.0 to 5.0 months of supply denotes a completely neutral market. At 3.0 months, Glendale reflects a Balanced Market.
With 3.0 months of supply and a median contract time of 37 days, buyers enjoy reasonable breathing room. In subdivisions where listings exceed 45 days on market, buyers should structure requests for 2-1 temporary interest rate buydowns or seller-paid closing concessions.
Action: Secure complete lender underwriting prior to contract submission.
Sellers can no longer rely on arbitrary price testing. With inventory up 18.5% YoY, listings that miss initial pricing brackets experience rapid visibility erosion. Properties priced precisely to closed deed comparables achieve contracts within 25 days.
Action: Service major mechanical systems and obtain pre-listing inspection clarity.
