2022
The Gilbert median sales price slightly increased to start off 2022, after decreasing in December to end 2021. This is the first January increase in the last four years. Home prices have increased each month in 2022 until June, which may be signaling a slight shift in the housing market. July saw a slight increase, while August saw another dip in median sales prices of Gilbert homes. Even with the recent decrease, the median sales price of Gilbert homes is 11.2% higher than in August of 2021.
2021
The median sales price of homes in Gilbert dropped to start off 2021, which also happened the previous two years, so this is no indication of any sort of change. I would predict that median sales prices in Gilbert will continue to grow as demand outpaces supply. February saw a large jump in the median sales price in Gilbert, just as predicted, as did March. April saw a decrease in the median sales price, but I would predict it continuing an upward trend throughout the year. Both May and June have seen Gilbert median sales prices of homes continue their upward trend after the slight dip in April. July saw another drop in median sales prices of Gilbert homes, but I would imagine the overall trend is still upward at this point and expect to see median sales prices increase in August. The median sales price of Gilbert homes did increase up to a new all-time high of $535,000 in August. The median sales price in Gilbert did decrease quite a bit in September, down to $500,000, but increased back up to $530,000 in October. The median sales price of Gilbert homes reached a new all-time high of $550,000 in November but dropped back down to $540,000 in December. The median sales price of Gilbert homes has increased 29.5% since December of 2020.
2020
Once again, the new year saw Gilbert home prices increasing, but the Coronavirus hit the US Housing market and shut down our economy in March. Over 40 million people lost their jobs, and many businesses were shut down by the government due to the pandemic. As you can see, home prices took a slight dip in March, and dropped a little more in April, probably due to the pandemic. However, things seem to be turning around, as there has been an increase in the median sales price in each of the following months (8 straight months), up to the highest median sales price ever at $430,000 in December. Overall, the median sales price increased by $71,750, which was a 20.0% increase in 2020. In comparison, for 2019 we saw a 9.1% increase, in 2018 we saw an 8.9% increase, and in 2017 we saw a 6.2% increase.

Gilbert, AZ Home Inventory:
2022
Gilbert home inventory dropped in January of 2022, but the inventory is higher than it was in January of 2021. This is the third straight January that the inventory of Gilbert homes has decreased to start off a new year. Gilbert home inventory has decreased for five consecutive months, since November of 2021. April through August has seen significant increases in the inventory of Gilbert homes. Inventory has gone from 353 in March to 1,035 in August, almost tripling. This may be due to rising interest rates and a changing housing market.
2021
The home inventory in Gilbert started at an all-time low of 329 to start off 2021. It dropped a little from December and is 40.2% lower than January of last year. Inventory, or lack thereof, remains a large issue, as there just aren't enough Gilbert homes being listed for sale to keep up with demand from home buyers. The inventory of Gilbert homes for sale did increase in February through July but remains lower than the previous three years. August inventory remained the same as July, and then decreased in September for the first time all year. Gilbert home inventory increased again in October but saw a decline in November and December to end 2021.

The overall inventory of Gilbert homes remained above 700 for all of 2018 and almost all of 2019, but in December the inventory dropped below 700 to 578. Coronavirus hit early in 2020, and that saw the inventory of Gilbert homes increase in April and May, as home sales temporary halted. Starting in June, when the housing market began to open up again, the inventory of Gilbert homes began to decline almost every month, until reaching an all-time low of 365 in December of 2020.
While the average number of Gilbert homes sold in the last 6 months decreasing to 338, and home inventory increasing to 1,035, this leaves an increasing absorption rate of 3.06 months, which is reflecting a much more balanced market, as anything below 3.0 is considered a seller's market.

How inventory affects home prices:
When the inventory of homes in Gilbert increases, the economics of supply and demand will take effect. When there is a large inventory of homes available for sale in Gilbert, home prices will decrease in value for a couple of reasons. One reason is because there are more homes for Gilbert 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 Gilbert 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 Gilbert decreases, you will start to see an increase in home prices. With a low inventory of homes, Gilbert 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 Gilbert home buyers, and sometimes you will have to offer a higher than list price to get the home you want.

Gilbert Days On Market:

The Gilbert days on market remained the same in January as it was in December of 2021, at 29 DOM. The DOM has gradually climbed up over the last 10 months, from the all-time low of 16 DOM that was recorded in April of 2021, to 30 DOM in February. March, April, and May have seen a decrease in DOM down to 20. June finally saw another increase up to 25 DOM, and July and August followed with additional increases up to 38 DOM.
2021
The days on market in Gilbert remained at 28 for the last 3 months of 2020, as well as for January as we headed into the new year. As long as the inventory of homes for sale remains low, and buyer demand is high, homes in Gilbert will continue to sell very fast. The DOM dropped for the third consecutive month and reached a new record-low at 16 in April of this year. After reaching a record low, May and June have seen a slight increase back up to 19 DOM. July through December has seen small increases for six consecutive months, bringing Gilbert DOM up to 30 (which is still extremely low).
2017-20
As you can see by the graph, Days on Market for Gilbert has had a very U-shaped curve each year, which shows the DOM has been higher at the beginning of each year, decreasing through the spring and summer months, and then increasing again at the end of each year. However, Gilbert DOM decreased from an average of 55 to 47 DOM between 2017 and 2018. In 2019, the numbers were almost exactly the same as in 2018. In 2020, the Gilbert DOM started off lower than it ever has in January, at 43. It ticked slightly up to 45 in February, but then dropped to low of 30 DOM in April. With Coronavirus hitting the US Housing market in mid-March and shutting down our economy, it doesn't look as though it has affected the DOM for Gilbert. We will have to see if DOM will increase in the coming months, or if it can withstand the economic shutdown long-term, as over 40 million people have lost their jobs, and many businesses have been closed by the government due to the pandemic. May did see a slight uptick to 34 DOM, back to the average it was in March this year, and June increased up to 39 DOM. July through September has seen a steady decline to 31 DOM. October through December remained steady at an all-time low of 28 DOM. Gilbert homes are selling faster in 2020 than they ever have, or at least since the housing bubble back in 2006-2007.

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 a Gilbert 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 Gilbert should have average days on the market somewhere between 60 and 90 days.
