The market continues to favor sellers, especially under $275,000.

Over 51% of newly constructed condominiums, townhomes and single family residences sold were between $275,000 and $500,000 as of November 2017. The lack of new construction in the lower price ranges has created an opportunity for flip investors looking to capitalize on demand from first-time homebuyers for move-in ready homes. There were 7,472 flip sales, categorized as those homes bought and sold within a 6-month period, year-to-date through November 2017. That is 21% over 2016 and 49% over 2014 within the same time frame, but still well below 2012’s volume of 12,771.

Taking all of this into account, we believe 2018 will be a better year for the economy overall. We expect employment to increase by an estimated 2.3% across Arizona and 2.8% in Greater Phoenix. We are expecting population to grow 1.6% this year and 1.7% growth next year for the state and slightly higher growth in Greater Phoenix. Housing should continue at a strong upward pace of roughly 10% growth per year for the next two years. And retail sales should grow by 3-4% in the short term.

For the overall market across Greater Phoenix, price trends capping off 2017 are as follows according to Arizona Regional MLS sales:

Overall, the market remains healthy going into 2018. Sales prices are expected to continue rising faster than the rate of inflation below $400,000, which means buyers will be purchasing smaller homes for their money this year. Buyers between $400,000 and $1.5M will find a more balanced market with extra wiggle room for price negotiations. Higher inventory in the market over $1.5M is causing prices to decline despite a 17% increase in sales volume, good news for luxury buyers in this price point.

This stimulus comes late in the business cycle. This is the third longest recovery/expansion in U.S. history. If the expansion lasts until mid-2019, it will be the longest recovery in U.S. history. To this point, the level of economic activity this cycle has been much slower than any of its predecessors. Going forward that might change. It remains to be seen how this late cycle stimulus plays out. But, the near term outlook has become more positive.

In relative terms, the economy is running on all cylinders. And, the imbalances that usually result from this strength in economic activity are not in sight. Due to the slower than usual recovery, the normal pressures felt at this stage of the cycle are not here at the moment. Given the stimulus that will be created by the tax cuts, reductions in regulation, and infrastructure spending that is likely to take place, growth is expected to accelerate in 2018.

Also noteworthy, the House and Senate tax bills were reconciled and finally passed tax cuts along party lines which will go into effect this year. This should stimulate the economy sufficiently to make 2018 a better year than 2017. The longer run effects should also be positive.

rizona and the U.S. economy enjoyed one of the best years in recent memory. For most of 2017, every week seemed to be yet another good week for the economy. The stock market continued to set new highs, home prices climbed, unemployment dropped, and incomes increased above inflation. We did so well that the Fed Funds interest rate increased for the third time in the year, indicating confidence that the economy is growing at an acceptable pace. In their discussion of current economic events, the Fed expects the rate of growth to modestly accelerate, inflation to stay under control, and unemployment to reach sub4% sometime in 2018.

Supply remains extremely short for homes under $200,000, which constitutes nearly 34% of all sales in Greater Phoenix. This large market share throws some influence on overall measures for the Valley, especially when it comes to appreciation. While the overall appreciation rate for Greater Phoenix is 6.4%, it’s not uncommon to see appreciation rates soar over 8% on properties under $200,000 and drop to 3-4% annually for the nearly 51% that sell between $200,000 and $400,000. Prospects for more supply on the low end are slim these days. Existing landlords with homes in this price range have little incentive to sell profitable rentals and the reported tax incentives planned for 2018 are expected to be in their favor. Existing owner occupants with homes under $200,000, many with favorable fixed interest rates, are choosing to stay and possibly renovate instead of braving the increasingly competitive homebuying market.
