Market Overview

Phoenix has been one of the fastest-growing US metros for years, attracting domestic migrants from California, Illinois, and the Northeast. The combination of warm weather, lower cost of living than coastal markets, and growing employment has driven sustained demand for housing. The market saw significant appreciation through 2022 and has cooled somewhat since.
