Metro Phoenix’s median home price is still hovering at a record $280,000, but finding a house for that price can be tough.
Forget trying to buy a detached home in Gilbert, Tempe, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Carefree or Cave Creek around that price. Condominiums can be found for less than $280,000 in some of the areas, however.
It’s no surprise there aren’t affordable homes in the Valley’s poshest enclaves, but the East Valley suburbs were affordable not too long ago.
