Price per Square FootThe market appears to be placing an increasing premium on homes. When list prices and price per square foot consistentlyincrease in tandem, as they're doing now, you can often find short-term investment opportunities. Watch the Market ActionIndex for persistent changes as a leading indicator for these trends to flatten or drop.

Market Action IndexThe FOUNTAIN HILLS market is currently quite strongly in the Buyer's Advantage zone (below 30). The 90-day Market ActionIndex stands at 19.40. With several months of inventory available at the current sales rate, buyers should find ample choice.
Buyers/Sellers Cutoff90-day Average
Market Action Index per QuartileNot surprisingly given the overall Market Action Index, all quartiles are in the Buyer's Market zone with several months ofinventory given the current rate of demand for homes in the quartile. Watch the quartile for changes before the overall marketshifts. Often one end of the market (e.g. the low end) will improve and signal a strengthening market before the whole groupchanges.

Buyers/Sellers Cutoff
Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterizedby analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyer’sAdvantage zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.
