Phoenix Home Values Continue To Rise As Other Major US Areas Slow Down!
The average U.S. home value rose eight percent in the last year, with median home value at $218,000, but that doesn't mean most major housing markets was at pace. Rather, Zillow's July 2018 report found that 20 of 35 largest US housing markets experienced slowed growth. Phoenix was one of the exceptions with a 7.7 percent increase, a median home value of $256,000 and a faster than average rate of home value growth at 4.8 percent.
What's slowing down for Phoenix, though? Try the median rent growth. The same report found the growth of median rent for Phoenix in the same period slowed down from to 2.6 percent to 1.7 percent, with median rent coming in at $1,362. The same can be said for median rent growth across the U.S. which rose only 0.5 percent in the last year.
