Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
In Desert Hills, a rolling three-month view shows inventory tightening while contract activity cools. Active listings are down about 17% year over year to 45, yet pending sales have inched up roughly 15% from a year ago, indicating that fewer homes are attracting more focused buyer attention.
Pricing has softened slightly in response to these dynamics. The typical home value is down about 3% year over year and the median list price has risen just under 2%, while the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 98%, signaling modest negotiation room for buyers.
Time on market has stretched considerably over the past year, with the median days on market rising to 117, up about 78% year over year, even as months of supply is near 5.8, aligning with a more balanced feel than the seller’s market label suggests. With no recent sales closing above list price and homes taking longer to go under contract, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate this shifting Desert Hills landscape.

“Blaine was amazing at helping us find our house! We were in a bit of a rush because we have a baby coming, and Blaine was extremely diligent in getting us into our first home. With being first time homeowners, we had a lot of questions. Blaine was quick and precise on explaining the process, and we would 100% work with him again!”
“I just closed on a home a couple of months ago with Kellie and I feel very lucky to have had her as my agent. There were many issues that came up during the process and some of them were way out of the ordinary and Kellie handled everything with ease and professionalism, sacrificing much of her and her team’s time trying to get me to the finish line. Kellie knows all of the neighborhoods well, can help you from start to finish, to include setting you up with the right people for financing, was always on time, and very pleasant to be around and work with. She will always have my referral.”
“I highly recommend hiring Bryant whether you're buying or selling your home or property. Bryant was always punctual and showed up with a smile on his face. He was very pleasant and professional to work with. He went above and beyond to assist me throughout the process, from the listing to the showings and ultimately to the sale. He's truly a great person and great at his job. 5 STARS”

“As a first-time homebuyer, I had no idea what to expect — just a lot of nerves and questions. Working with Christina Sicairos turned all that anxiety into confidence. From our very first meeting, she was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right home — not just any home. Christina took the time to explain every step of the process in clear, simple terms. She never rushed me, never pressured me, and always made sure I understood what was happening. Whether it was helping me get pre-approved, scheduling viewings, or navigating the offer and closing process, Christina was consistently on top of everything and incredibly responsive. What stood out most was how she advocated for me. She paid attention to the details I cared about and was honest about things that might be potential red flags. That kind of honesty is rare and so appreciated, especially when you’re making such a big life decision. Now that I’m in my new home, I can confidently say that I wouldn’t have gotten here without Christina’s guidance and support. I’d recommend her to anyone — especially fellow first-time buyers who want someone they can trust 100%. Thank you, Christina, for helping turn a dream into reality!”

“Heather and Jody of Penko Realty were the BEST! My recomendation for her and her team is without reservation - simple great!

“Therese was fantastic, a true expert! She had a lot of knowledge on the area and her communication was top notch. The entire process was very smooth and easy. Was blue to get the deal done in less than 2 weeks!”
“We hired Julie over 2 years to sell my moms house. Unfortunately, mom has dementia and made the process difficult, to say the least. I can’t even remember how many offers Julie brought to us. Mom eventually went to assisted living. She agreed to sell the house. Julie continued to bring us offers, and had to deal with a possible probate, a lien on the house, a house that needed a lot of work. Julie worked tirelessly to deal with house issues - arranging cleaners, mold removal, termites, etc. Fortunately, the stars aligned, and we found a buyer who loved the home. Can’t say enough good things about this realtor who dealt with many personal issues. Julie will do everything she can to sell your house.”

He went above and beyond for us in finding us exactly what wee were looking for! He worked with our schedules and he was always available to answer any questions we had along the way! I highly recommend Chris if you are in the market for a home!”
“I was introduced to Julie through the realtor selling my house on the East Coast. I connected with Julie before I moved to AZ and she was a resource to me during my move. She not only found my Scottsdale rental but then she found the home I purchased and currently live in. Julie stops at nothing to ensure her clients are happy and she easily produces high quality results that satisfy her clients. Julie took the stress out of what is normally a stressful time. She is la great listener, incredibly helpful, kind, smart and very much a people person! You definitely want Julie by your side if you are buying or selling in the Greater Phoenix area! I recommend Julie to anyone looking for a realtor and I will absolutely use her again when/if I buy and sell in the area. Julie will be the only realtor I work with!”
