Chandler Housing Market August 2026 Chandler, AZ – city-level snapshot for single-family detached homes.
Q: What’s happening in the Chandler housing market right now?
A: As of August 6, 2026 moderately seller-leaning : 2.1 months of supply (excluding UCB/CCBS), median monthly sold price $552,000 , days on market (sold) 63 days, and an average sale-to-list of 98.12% . The Cromford® Market Index is 138.4 – eased from 140.5 last month, and the move came off the demand side.
What this means Negotiation: Homes are selling for about 98.12% of list price — roughly 1.88% under asking on average. That is unchanged from last month’s 98.17%.How much is for sale: Inventory is 2.1 months (excluding UCB/CCBS) — tighter than last month’s 2.5 and tighter than last August’s 2.4. Sellers hold the edge.How long it takes: Recently-sold homes averaged 63 days on market, up from 57 last month; active listings average 76 days .Pricing reality ($/SF): Monthly sold $/SF is $305.41 while active list $/SF is $306.22 . That is an $0.81 spread — asking and closing prices have converged, so there is little room hiding in the list price this month.This is a rolling snapshot (today vs the same date last month ) so buyers and sellers can track leverage shifts without waiting for month-end reporting.

Chandler reality check: Supply tightened and volume rose at the same time. Closings climbed (199 → 219 ) while active listings fell (602 → 562 ), pulling months of supply down (2.5 → 2.1 , excluding UCB/CCBS). The pipeline behind those closings thinned though: pending fell (120 → 108 ) and listings under contract dropped (234 → 205 ). The median monthly sold price fell ($570,650 → $552,000 ) while monthly sold $/SF rose ($293.20 → $305.41 ). Average sold size dropped this month (2,248 → 2,158 SF ), so smaller homes at a higher price per foot account for much of that median move. Sale-to-list held at 98.12% and the listing success rate held at 76.0% . Tighter inventory and more closings, against a thinner pipeline. Both are true.

Market call Market: SELLER-LEANING – SUPPLY IS TIGHTENING
Moderately seller-leaning because Cromford® Market Index is 138.4 (well above 100). The 2.1-point slip from 140.5 came off the demand side: the Demand Index fell from 84.1 to 79.2 while the Supply Index also tightened (59.8 → 57.3). Supply tightening pushes the index up, so the small net decline is a demand story, not a supply story. Sale-to-list held at 98.12% , so buyers are giving up about as little as they did last month. Supply tightened to 2.1 months (excluding UCB/CCBS) and closings rose to 219/month , yet the median fell to $552,000 and under-contract $/SF dropped to $301.10 . The contract ratio slid from 48.0 to 44.1. Watch whether the thinner pipeline shows up in closings next month.
