2021
The Ahwatukee median sales price has remained pretty steady over the last five months, and could be a sign that prices are slowing as we enter 2021. However, January median sales prices dropped off significantly in January of the previous two years, but did not decrease at all to begin 2021. That may mean that median sales prices in Ahwatukee are still climbing. February and March saw large increases in the median sales price. April and May have seen a decrease in the median sales prices of Ahwatukee homes, which is different than most other East Valley cities. June and July have both seen decent increases in the median sales price of Ahwatukee homes, up to a new all-time high of $525,000. August saw a decrease in median sales price, and September saw an even larger decrease down to $478,000. Overall, the median home price in Ahwatukee has increased 13.8% since September of last year.
2017-2020
The Ahwatukee median home sales prices have had a pretty steady increase over the last 4 years, from a low of $287,500 in January of 2017, to a high of $420,000 in September of 2020, and now January of 2021. Home prices seem to increase each year after the first few months of the year. They tend to drop off each year in November, but surge upward in December before falling to yearly lows in January.
As the Coronavirus hit the US Housing market and shut down our economy in mid March, home prices have started to decrease. Home prices have dropped in April and May after rising sharply in March, but are still much higher than any previous year back to 2012. We will have to see if home prices can withstand the economic shutdown long-term, as over 40 million people have lost their jobs, and many business have been closed by the government due to the pandemic. June and July have seen increases to the median sales price of homes up to $410,000, as the economy tries to get going again. August saw a slight decrease as the housing market begins it's annual fall slowdown, but September saw a fairly large increase to an all-time high of $420,000, which is not typical this late into the year. October saw a dip, but November and December bounced back up to almost what it was in September.

2021
The inventory of Ahwatukee homes for sale decreased in January, the same as it has the last four years. February remained the same as January.

2018-20
As you look at the graph above, you can see that the inventory of homes in Ahwatukee, AZ has decreased from a high of 380 in April of 2018 to an all-time low of 159 in December of 2020.

Since then we have seen the inventory of homes in Ahwatukee increase from 183 in January to 275 in May, a 50% increase in 4 months. We will have to see if this trend continues, as the Coronavirus hit the US Housing market and shut down the economy.

Ahwatukee inventory of homes increased in September, but the rest of the year saw a steady decline, eventually reaching an all-time low of 159 homes for sale in December.
With the average number of Ahwatukee homes sold in the last 6 months decreasing to 136, and home inventory decreasing to 156, this leaves a decrease in the absorption rate to 1.15 months, which is still very low, and signals a seller's market.

How inventory affects home prices:
When the inventory of homes in Ahwatukee increases, the economics of supply and demand will take effect. When there is a large inventory of homes available for sale in Ahwatukee, home prices will decrease in value for a couple of reasons. One reason is because there are more homes for Ahwatukee home buyers to choose from. Buyers will take their time in selecting a home, causing homes to stay on the market longer and increasing inventory. Because there are more Ahwatukee homes for sale, home sellers will begin to lower their sales price in order to get their home sold.
When the inventory of homes in Ahwatukee decreases, you will start to see an increase in home prices. With a low inventory of homes, Ahwatukee home sellers know that they can ask a higher price because there are more buyers in the market than homes for sale. Homes tend to sell faster, and for more money when inventory is low. There are fewer choices for Ahwatukee home buyers, and sometimes you will have to offer a higher than list price to get the home you want.

Days on market (DOM) is a measure of the age of a real estate listing. It is the total number of days a listing is on the active market before an offer is accepted on the property, or an agreement between the real estate broker and home seller ends. The higher the days on market, the longer it is taking for homeowners to sell their Tempe home. The lower the days on market, the faster an Ahwatukee home is receiving a purchase contract, and getting off the market.
Generally, properties with a longer DOM will command lower prices than properties with a shorter DOM because a perception exists that the property may be overpriced or less desirable the longer it remains on the market. DOM often factors into developing a pricing strategy. DOM can also be used to gauge the condition, or trend of the housing market. Previous history has shown that a fairly stable real estate market in Ahwatukee should have average days on the market somewhere between 60 and 90 days.
