Is it a Buyer’s Market in Ahwatukee Now? The Number of Homes Being Sold is Less than The Number
of Homes coming up for Sale !Just a few months ago, the Phoenix Area including
Ahwatukee experienced a shortage of homes available for sale. There were more home buyers out there looking to buy a home than the number of homes available to buy, creating a seller’s market.Lots of people looking to buy a home were faced with
so much competition and could not get their offers to buy a home they loved, accepted by the home owner selling their home.Not only did the shortage of inventory work against
most of the aspiring home owners but also the type of payment being used to buy the homes. The market was flooded with people looking to buy homes for sale with cash and those using mortgages were left behind.Most of these potential buyers became so disappointed
that they gave up on their dreams of ever owning a home
and just stopped looking for homes to buy.With lots of people dropping out of the home buying
process, the real estate market in the whole Phoenix area including Ahwatukee, has now taken a turn and the tables seem to be turning in favor of buyers, who now have more choices and less competition.The rate of selling is less than the rate at which homes
are coming up for sale. As a result, homes are taking a much longer time to sell than in the previous months.
