Current Mortgage Rate Context

Market-level mortgage rate comparison for this area:

Current 30-year fixed mortgage rates in Phoenix, AZ are 6.63% compared to the 5.99% average observed earlier in 2026, indicating a higher cost of borrowing for property owners in this market.

Note: Interest rate comparisons provide market context. The existing "Interest Rate Pressure" metric above shows the qualitative market impact.


Key Findings

  1. The neighborhood's primary market indicator, the 543,000 median sold price, points to a representative recent sale level while the prolonged median days on market 328 suggests slower sales velocity rather than rapid turnover.
  2. Listing expectations are closely aligned with transactions: the 540,750 median listing price sits near the 543,000 median sold price, which may indicate limited pricing friction between seller expectations and completed sales.
  3. Liquidity appears characterized by relatively constrained active supply in the analyzed sample, which, combined with the prolonged median days on market 328, suggests balanced but slower transaction volume rather than acute scarcity or overheating.
  4. Market pressure signals are mixed: the price year-over-year trend is down and rent year-over-year trend is down, while interest rate pressure is elevated—notably current 30-year fixed mortgage rates are 6.63% compared to 5.99% earlier in 2026—creating headwinds for affordability and buyer purchasing power.
