After increasing in May, Chandler home sales have decreased the last two months, going from 252 in May to 211 in July. The number of Chandler home sales is now higher than in July of last year by 6.0%. This is the first month home sales have been greater than the same month last year since May of 2021 (over 2 years).
The number of new listings in Chandler decreased for the 3rd straight month after increasing the previous two months, going from 234 in April to 199 in July. With this decrease, new listings are down -52.7% from July of last year. This is the lowest number of new listings in July since before 2018.
After increasing for eight straight months, more than doubling from 313 in January to 773 in September of 2022, active listings in Chandler have now decreased 10 months in a row and are down to 284 for July. With this decrease, active listings are now lower than the same month last year for the 4th month in a row. With this latest decrease, active listings in Chandler are less than last year's July listings by -59.9%.
The decline in the number of listings in Chandler over the last 10 months is another sign that the housing market is slowing. Fewer homeowners are putting their homes on the market partially because they are locked in at an interest rate lower than 3.5% and don't want to have to buy a home when interest rates are now around 7.0%.
Home prices have been slowly increasing throughout this year, and inflation and higher mortgage rates have slowed buyer demand. Median home values in Chandler have decreased an average of -7.4% since July of 2022. This is the 7th year-over-year decrease in a row after seeing nothing but increasing home prices from January 2019 through December 2022.
Mortgage interest rates have been holding steady the last few weeks right around 7.0%, and some experts say inflation is slowing. With declining inventory and greater demand, it looks like we are still in a sellers' housing market in Chandler. It should remain that way as we get through the summer and enter the fall.
