Chandler AZ Real Estate Housing Market Report - July 2021
The average sales price of homes in Chandler continues to break records each month, climbing to a new all-time high of $569,467 in July, increasing over $10,000 since last month. The average sales price per square foot has increased for 13 straight months, and is now up to $263/sf from $257/sf last month (and $194/sf in July of 2020).
Days on market increased to 23 DOM in July after reaching an all-time low of 20 last month. It was inevitable that the DOM would increase, as it could not continue to go much lower than 20. This still means that homes in Chandler are selling faster than they ever have, and most home sellers are receiving multiple offers, driving prices up.

Chandler home sales decreased to 343 from 390 last month, and are actually down -23.1% from July of last year. This is a huge turnaround from May, where home sales were up 23.4% from May of 2020. I believe the large increase in Chandler home sales you saw earlier this year compared to last year had a lot to due with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, by June of 2020 the real estate business was starting to get back to normal. That is obviously being reflected by the fact that fewer homes were sold in July of 2021 (343) than in July of last year (445).
The number of new listings are up 2.4% from July of last year, even though many people continue to stay put, and there have not been enough new homes built to keep up with demand. At 620, the number of active listings is only down -6.7% from July of last year. This is much closer to 2020 numbers than having been down close to -20.0% throughout the first part of this year.
The lack of listings continues to drive demand, and home prices higher. Median home values in Chandler have increased an average of 26.3% since July of 2020, which is almost unbelievable. I wonder how much longer home values can continue to increase like this. With mortgage interest rates remaining around 3.0%, there are still more buyers looking to purchase in 2021 than there are homes for sale.
