By The Numbers
The Trends
The Tucson Housing Market May 2019 report shows the average sales price INCREASED 6.39% to $277,228. This is a BIG move. Year over Year May 2019 is up 6.02% from 2018.
The May 2019 average sales price stands at 94.5% of the June 2007 peak average sales price of $293,443. Will we reach the old peak this year? Maybe. But we are getting closer.
Median Sales Prices
The Median Sales Price for a Tucson home also increased. Another BIG gain with an INCREASE of 6.39% to $232,000. Since December 2018, the Tucson Home Median Sales Price has INCREASED 13.2%. And Year over year, the May 2019 median sales price is UP 7.16%.
The Median Sales Price of a Tucson home now stands at 103.1% of the June 2007 peak median sales price of $225,000. A long 12 years, but “on average” the Median Sale Price has set a new high for Tucson Homes.
Listing Prices
The Tucson Housing Market May 2019 report shows Tucson’s Average List Price of a home INCREASED 6.23% to $282,609. Another BIG month over month gain. Buyers who didn’t pull the trigger in March or April.
But the more important question is “What is the average list price by area of Tucson?”
And the answer is!
Active Listings
Listings DECREASED 6.72% to 2,705. Active Listings continue below 4,000 for yet another month and have set another all time low. At this level the Tucson Real Estate market is now very “tight”.
Year over Year active listings ARE DOWN 5.75%.
Average Days On Market (DOM)
Days On Market FELL TO 37 DAYS in May. If it is priced right it sells – FAST!
The Drivers – Buyer Demand And Low Inventory
The continued flow of baby boomers appears to be created strong demand for Tucson homes. Low active listings and strong demand have pushed prices up. Hey, the economists are right. Demand with low supply makes prices rise.
Will June show more of the same? We will need to wait and see.
May 2019 Mortgage Update
Mortgage rates have moved up. And are now under 4.25% for a 30-year conventional loan. The low rates relative to recent year over year appreciation in home values make home buying an easy choice for investment.
Tucson has been identified as one of the Top 10 housing markets for 2017 and 2018. December’s data appears to be confirming Tucson is a top pick for cities to live in.

When submitting an offer
