Apache Junction reality check: Apache Junction has the strongest demand reading of any market I track. Its Demand Index is 140.8 , and the next highest market I cover sits at 85.7. Homes here also sell fastest — 60 days — and the listing success rate is 81.6% . Supply loosened this month from both directions: active listings excluding UCB rose from 185 to 206 while sales per month fell from 73 to 65 , pushing months of supply from 2.5 to 3.2 . That 2.5 was an unusually tight reading; 3.2 is closer to where this market sat a quarter ago (3.1) and a year ago (2.9). The median jumped to $464,990 from $427,990, but the average sold home grew from 1,730 to 1,844 SF while sold $/SF fell to $257.39 from $263.08. Bigger houses, not higher prices.
What this means Negotiation Homes are selling for about 98.24% of list price, roughly 1.76% under asking on average, or about $8,187 on a median-priced Apache Junction home. That is softer than last month’s 99.05% and softer than last September’s 98.71%.
How much is for sale Inventory is 3.2 months (excluding UCB/CCBS), looser than last month’s 2.5 and looser than last September’s 2.9. Active listings excluding UCB are up 16.4% year over year.
How long it takes Recently-sold homes averaged 60 days on market, essentially unchanged from 61 last month; active listings average 77 days . This is the fastest sold time of any Valley market I track.
Pricing reality ($/SF) Monthly sold $/SF is $257.39 while active list $/SF is $271.97 . That is a $14.59 spread, a little over 5% of the sold figure. Asking prices here sit close to what buyers actually pay.
Market call: seller-leaning, inventory grew Moderately seller-leaning because the Cromford® Market Index is 137.0 , well above 100. The 1.0-point slip from 138.0 is small and it came from both sides moving together: the Supply Index rose from 100.1 to 102.7 and the Demand Index rose from 138.1 to 140.8 . Supply grew a fraction faster than demand did, which is the entire move. Demand did not weaken here.
The mixed signal is the pipeline against the year. Pending fell to 85 from 90 and listings under contract to 106 from 111, and the contract ratio dropped to 51.5 from 60.0. Compared with a year ago, though, listings under contract are up 47.2% and sales per month are up 10.2% . A softer month sitting inside a much stronger year.
Quick pulse vs last month (8/6 → 9/10): active listings 206 → 227 , pending 90 → 85 , under contract 111 → 106 , sales/month 73 → 65 .
Pricing per sq ft: active list $/SF $273.89 → $271.97 ; monthly sold $/SF $263.08 → $257.39 ; under contract $/SF $264.69 → $266.11 .
Buyer standings — September 2026 You have more to look at than you did a month ago. Active listings excluding UCB rose from 185 to 206 and supply went from 2.5 to 3.2 months .

The per-foot gap is $14.59 against a sold figure of $257.39/sf , so there is not much air between asking and closing here.Be ready to move.

It jumped to $464,990 from $427,990, but average sold size went from 1,730 to 1,844 SF and sold $/SF fell to $257.39 .
