And although we\u2019re not betting on major rate drops, a slight decline is likely.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shane Cook, who assumed the role of first vice president of Arizona REALTORS\u00ae and works at eXp Realty in Chandler, noted the pent-up demand generated in 2024 as buyers adjusted to higher interest rates. He also anticipates more transactions in 2025 but says the exact number may depend on how rates evolve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 2025 president-elect of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Grand View North in Flagstaff, Ms. Lisa Paffrath, also pointed out that housing prices will likely continue to rise, especially in northern Arizona.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to Paul Baker, 2025 treasurer of RE\/MAX Fine Properties in Scottsdale, in Maricopa County, homeownership remains the goal for most residents. Baker also foresees continued population growth in the region, with a majority of young buyers, accompanied by new construction and increased market activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ready also mentioned a trend she is seeing more often: families moving in together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Drucker, CEO of Arizona REALTORS\u00ae, also commented that new housing and commercial developments remain critical for easing the housing shortage in Arizona. They will not only increase inventory but also generate jobs in fields like architecture and construction, which boost the economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another key point in the housing market predictions for Scottsdale and Arizona overall is the shift in the workplace, which may also affect buyers and sellers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On this topic, Lisa Paffrath also stated: \u201cAs more companies call their employees back to the office full-time, we could see more homes on the market in 2025 from workers looking to move closer to their jobs.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For all these reasons, the recommendation is to consult a professional real estate agent to help you understand all the changing factors, from local trends to the latest updates on mortgage rates, inventory, and even foreclosure options.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Available foreclosures:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Phoenix: 321 homes available<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tucson: 176 homes available<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Flagstaff: 64 homes available<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mesa: 199 homes available<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chandler: 88 homes available<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><br style=\"font-weight: 400\" \/>By El\u00edas DaSilva | May 27, \u00a02025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2024, Arizona\u2019s real estate sector experienced steady momentum as population growth continued to drive demand while housing inventory remained tight.
