On the rebound Metro Phoenix home prices near 2006 record costs and may reach that figure in June, analysis reveals Could June be the month metro Phoenix home prices rebound to the record they hit in 2006? A new analysis of pending sales in the Valley shows prices are nearly there. In May 2006, metro Phoenix’s median home price hit $259,900. Then in June, it set a record at $264,800, according to Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Service data. Then the recession hit, and prices tumbled. We’ve been watching them
slowly work their way back up since 2011. The forecast is for the area’s median to reach $260,000 in May, according to housing analyst Tom Ruff ’s latest report for ARMLS. And then it’s only a few more thousand dollars to bust the record. That would be a heavy climb from $254,000 in April, just like in 2006. But May is often a peak month for home See REAGOR, Page 3R

sales and prices. Many Metro Phoenix home buyers who start seriously shopping in January and February like to close and move before summer. If more buyers are willing to brave the heat, June could be the month for a price rebound. The Valley’s housing boom, fueled by subprime mortgages and speculators, started in 2004 and peaked in the summer of 2006. Metro Phoenix’s housing market hit bottom in 2011, and investors snatched up a record number of bargain foreclosure homes that year. The Valleys’ median price then plummeted to $110,000. So home values had a long way to rebound in metro Phoenix. “In 2011, some government reports were forecasting it would take 50 years before prices returned to 2006 levels,” Ruff said. Thankfully, it has only taken 12 years. Home prices in some Valley neighborhoods, particularly affordable ones closer in, have already rebounded to 2006 record levels. In nearly 30 Phoenix-area ZIP codes neighborhoods, prices have climbed back to 2006 levels or even higher, according to The Arizona Republic/azcentral Street Scout Home Values report. Many of those areas still have median home prices below $300,000. Values in another 40 Valley neighborhoods are within 10 percent of recovering. 2017 was the Valley’s best healthy year for home sales so far, and sales through April are up 4 percent from last year’s pace. Home sales were higher in 2005 in the midst of the housing bubble, and in 2011 when investors snatched up bargain foreclosures at a record rate. But those weren’t normal or healthy years.
Stephanie Silva and Billy Horner stand in the driveway of their new house with real estate agents Tia and Matthew Coates in Mesa on April 6. PATRICK BREEN/THE REPUBLIC
Home sales do typically slow during the summer in metro Phoenix as fewer buyers want to check out houses when the temperatures climb above 100. A summer slowdown in sales could lead to the same for price jumps. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing. While we Valley homeowners are happily watching our values rebound from the crash, many buyers trying to purchase their first Valley house are having a hard time. Metro Phoenix is still a very affordable housing market compared to the East and West coasts. But the number of houses priced near the area’s median in popular neighborhoods closer in are
dwindling. The number of Valley homes for sale for $350,000 is down 20 percent from last year, according to the Cromford Report. Phoenix-area houses that aren’t on the fringes or complete wrecks in that price range are sparking bidding wars among buyers and can sell the day they’re listed. And first-time buyers must compete with investors paying cash who either want to flip houses or turn them in into rentals. If home prices climb too fast or high, demand will slump, and so will our values.

Lawyers do not have fair housing protection Christopher Combs Columnist
Question: My wife and I recently moved to the Phoenix area from New York. We are both lawyers, and we have credit scores in the 800s. We wanted to rent a nice home in Paradise Valley for a year, until we decided where we want to
live permanently. We signed a lease for this home and our real estate agent presented the lease to the landlord for his signature. The landlord was pleased with the terms of the lease, but when he did a credit check and learned that we were lawyers, he refused to sign the lease. We can’t believe that the landlord can refuse to rent to us just because we

are lawyers. Is that allowed in Arizona? Answer: Yes. Under federal and state fair housing laws, including Arizona, unless a buyer or a tenant is a member of a protected class, e.g., race or disability, a homeowner can refuse to sell or rent to that buyer or tenant. Although some people may think that the practice of law is evidence of a disability, lawyers
are not within a protected class. Therefore, the Paradise Valley homeowner can refuse to rent to you. Note: In a California Court of Appeals decision the developer of a new home project in the Bakersfield area was allowed to advertise and enforce a prohibition against selling a new home to a lawyer.

Grill safely at apartments for holiday Rent Smart Courtney Gilstrap LeVinus Guest Columnist
Memorial Day is fast approaching and you might be planning to hang out with family and friends or grilling up some delicious food in your apartment community. But before you do, make sure you know if your apartment allows you to have a personal grill on your patio or balcony. If you are allowed a personal grill, make sure you place it at least 10 feet away from the building. Most apartments do not allow residents to have these personal grills as they are a fire hazard. If you cannot have a personal grill in your apartment home, take advantage of the community grills. While your guests hang out by the pool, you may want use one of the community 3052

grills to make a delicious dinner. As a resident, it is important to take care of the community grills as if they were your own, to insure the safety of yourself and others. The first thing you should do is clean the grill. Taking a few minutes to clean the grill and wipe down the grates will help keep your work station clean and make your food taste better too. Once your grill is clean, read the instructions on the grill to light the fire safely. While the grills might be placed far enough away from the apartment buildings, be sure to watch your heat source. After your grill is lit, keep an eye on your food while it’s cooking. Never leave your grill unattended. Keep all of your cooking tools nearby so you don’t have to walk away from your food. Once all your food is cooked, make

WASHINGTON – Sales of new U.S. homes fell 1.5 percent in April, held down by a shortage of affordable houses in the most desirable areas and pullback in purchases in the Western United States. The Commerce Department said Wednesday that new homes sold last month at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 662,000. Despite the setback, new-home sales so far this year are 8.4 percent higher than in 2017. A solid job market and a shortage of existing homes for sale have led more people into the new-home market, even though they are generally more expensive than existing homes. Sales last month occurred disproportionately at the higher end, where profit margins are often greater for builders.

sure you extinguish the fire or turn off the gas depending on your grill. If we forget to turn off the gas, or we do not close the propane valve all the way it can be very dangerous. With a charcoal barbecue, be sure the flames are completely extinguished. Be thorough, and triple check and make sure you have safely turned off any gas and/or extinguished any burning coals. Lastly, clean up your work space for the next person. Clean the grill and grates with a grill brush or tin foil and tongs.

Question: My landlord does not fix anything in my apartment. A faucet is broken and the hot water heater doesn’t even work. I am not going to pay my rent until the landlord takes care of these problems. Is that okay?
Answer: No.
Pay the rent. Serve a written 5-Day Notice to the landlord explaining exactly what the problems are. The landlord will then have 5 days to actually fix the problems, if the problems are related to health or safety. If the landlord does not fix the problems within 5 days, then you may terminate the lease agreement, vacate the property and seek damages from the landlord or deliver (1) a 10-Day Notice outlining repairs needed, (2) provide a lien waiver for the landlord, and (3) hire a licensed contractor to do the work and then you can deduct from rent the actual reasonable cost of the work up to one-half months rent. You may also recover damages for the breech by the landlord. Remember, that this remedy is only available if the repairs that are needed are not the result of the tenants deliberate and negligent actions or omissions. Therefore, you have some hoops to jump through, but if you follow the steps properly pursuant to A.R.S. 33-1324, 1361, 1363 and 1364, you have statutory rights.
