Tucson, AZ 85730 Real Estate Market Report

ZIP Code: 85730
Report Date: February 2026
Market Temperature: NEUTRAL
Scope: Single-Family Residential (SFR) listings and comps only


Executive Overview

As of February 2026, the Tucson housing market, particularly in the 85730 ZIP code, reflects a median sold price of $309,450, indicating a stable yet slightly softening market. The neighborhood has decreased 8% since 2022, suggesting a trend of price adjustments that may continue as the market normalizes. With 186 days as the median days on market, properties are experiencing slower sales velocity, which may indicate a shift in buyer sentiment amid elevated interest rate pressure.

Inventory levels are currently elevated, with a notable gap between the median listing price of $299,947.50 and the median sold price. This discrepancy suggests that sellers may need to adjust their expectations to align with current buyer demand, which remains robust despite affordability challenges. The overall market temperature is neutral, indicating balanced conditions, yet the increasing days on market and slight price declines may provide buyers with favorable negotiating opportunities.
