Pima County Arizona real estate snapshot: October 2026

This Pima County Arizona real estate report covers the single-family numbers that move a price across Pima County: the median sale price, closed sales and time on market, plus condos and townhomes. Whether you are browsing Pima County homes for sale or getting ready to sell, start here, then open the city page for the town you want.

Latest month, single‑familyLatestChange vs a year earlier
Median sale price$380,837+1.6%
Closed sales882-5.4%
Days on market686 days faster

Single-family figures only. The month before, the single-family median was $375,000. Rows without a single-family figure this month (pending sales, new listings, homes for sale, average price, share of list price and months of supply) are left out rather than filled with other home types.

The worry: Sellers often ask how much it costs to sell a house in Arizona, and the list price alone does not answer it. The fix: Your net depends on price, concessions and closing costs, so get a written price opinion and a net sheet from a full-time listing agent.

What it means for buyers

Homes took 68 days to sell in the latest month, so build your offer from closed sales on your street, not from list prices. Your full-time Pima County buyer’s agent pulls those comps before every offer.

What it means for sellers

Closed sales were down 5.4% from a year earlier and buyers still compare every listing, and pricing on day one decides your net. Start with a real price opinion for your Pima County home, then compare plans from a full-time listing agent in your zip.

Here is what the October 2026 Pima County Arizona real estate numbers mean for your next move.

October 2026 Buyer & Seller Takeaways

  • Buyers: Base every offer on recent closed comps rather than asking prices: homes took 68 days to sell in the latest month. Start with the homes that have been listed longest, and have a dedicated buyer’s agent check the comps before you offer.
  • Sellers: Homes are taking 68 days to sell and closed sales are down 5.4% from a year earlier, so use this Pima County AZ market report to set your list price from closed sales, then interview a full-time Pima County listing agent.
  • Sun exposure: Arizona sun is intense, so when you shop Pima County Arizona real estate, check the backyard, patio and driveway sun exposure for any date and time with the free ShadeMap tool before you buy. North- and east-facing backyards usually get less afternoon sun in summer, and your buyer’s agent can walk the lot with you.
  • Condo buyers: Pima County condos for sale closed at a $208,310 median on 44 closed sales in the latest month, after 89 days on market. Review the HOA budget and reserves before you offer.
  • Out-of-state buyers: Get a dedicated agent touring Pima County homes for sale on video before you fly in. We walk the street, the HOA and the commute for you on a live call, so your trip is for the final two or three homes.

The worry: Buyers and sellers both search who pays closing costs in Arizona. The fix: The purchase contract decides it, and seller concessions can shift costs, so ask for an estimated settlement statement before you sign; a full-time listing agent or buyer’s agent negotiates those terms.

The latest month closed at $380,837, up from $375,000 the month before and 1.6% above the same month a year earlier.

What a pricing mistake costs in Pima County

Sellers who priced right closed in about 68 days; sellers who guessed are still sitting, cutting and handing leverage to the buyer. Buyers face the mirror image: overpay by 5% on a $380,837 home and you start $19,042 behind before your first payment. That is why we put a dedicated full-time local agent on every Pima County Arizona real estate move.

DON’T make a $100,000 mistake and hire a part-time or out-of-area agent.

Here is how that mistake happens with Pima County Arizona real estate:

  • Pricing against the wrong comps. A blended-ZIP median or a different subdivision is not your home’s market. Pima County sellers closed at a $380,837 median in the latest month; misread the comps by 5% on a $380,837 home and that is $19,042.
  • Missing an HOA, floodplain or airport issue. HOA rules, a mapped floodplain or an airport noise or flight-path area can change a home’s value. Check any address on the Pima County Regional Flood Control District flood hazard parcel map before you are under contract, and have your agent pull the official airport disclosure maps.
  • Losing negotiation leverage. Seller concessions are negotiated, and a weak first offer or counter can leave thousands on the table.

Work with a dedicated full-time local agent: a full-time buyer’s agent if you are buying, or a full-time seller’s agent if you are selling.

Selling in one Arizona city and buying in another? Timing both sides is where movers lose money. One full-time agent can line up your sale and purchase so you are not carrying two mortgages or rushing into the wrong home.

Buying Pima County Arizona real estate this fall: a 5-step plan

  1. Set your number from closed sales, not list prices. Pima County homes closed at a $380,837 median in the latest month, so build your offer around recent closings on your street.
  2. Pick the zip before the house. Pima County Arizona real estate prices vary from city to city and from older neighborhoods to newer subdivisions. Narrow your search to the city that fits your plans and budget.
  3. Target homes that have sat. With 68 days on market and closed sales down 5.4%, Pima County homes for sale that have sat for several weeks are where sellers listen. Our team flags those listings the day they cross that line.
  4. Check city limits, HOA rules and school boundaries. Some Pima County addresses sit outside city limits in unincorporated county land, and some lots use wells or septic systems. Check city limits, utilities and HOA rules before you write an offer.
  5. Put a full-time agent on your side. Tell us your goal in 60 seconds with the form below, and a dedicated full-time Pima County buyer’s agent who works your part of the city gets back to you.

Before you buy in Arizona: what we’d tell a friend

Buying Pima County Arizona real estate? These are the nine things we would tell a friend before they make an offer in Pima County, and the same checks our dedicated full-time buyer’s agents walk through with every client.

  1. Choose your everyday life before the house. Write down your three lifestyle priorities before you browse Pima County Arizona real estate. A beautiful kitchen cannot change the location.
  2. Test the commute at the times you will actually drive. Drive it at rush hour, then time the trips to school, groceries, the gym and the people you visit most.
  3. Look at the full monthly cost. Add property taxes, homeowners insurance (have your agent request a CLUE claims history report on the home) and every HOA due, since some homes and condos pay one to three associations. Get 3 insurance quotes before you make an offer, because insurers check the property’s CLUE claims history and it can decide whether a policy is even bindable. On new construction, ask whether the tax estimate reflects the completed home, and plan for a backyard that usually comes as dirt only, with no landscaping, patio or turf. A new construction agent checks both before you sign.
  4. Verify the school district for the exact address. Boundaries follow the address, not the city name. Confirm the assigned schools for the street, then look them up on the Arizona Department of Education school report cards.
  5. Picture the home in every season. Check afternoon sun on the backyard with ShadeMap, and look at where water goes after a monsoon storm.
  6. Visit the street at different times. Go on a weekday morning, during the day, in the evening and on a weekend. Traffic, noise, parking and lighting all change.
  7. Plan for summer electric bills. Ask for twelve months of bills from APS, SRP or TEP, and find out whether any solar is owned or leased, because a lease transfers to you.
  8. Check the flood zone, washes and flight paths. Look up the address on the Pima County Regional Flood Control District flood hazard parcel map and note any wash near the lot, the first map check we run on Pima County Arizona real estate. Check for any flight path near the home, and have your agent pull the official airport disclosure maps.
  9. Inspect what the desert wears out. Ask about the age of the AC, the roof underlayment, termites and the pool equipment on any Pima County Arizona real estate listing. On rural lots, also check the well in the Arizona Department of Water Resources well registry and the septic system under the ADEQ transfer inspection rules. On homes with solar panels, pigeons nesting under panels that have no critter guard (a mesh cage) can cause tens of thousands of dollars in roof damage. Look for critter guards and droppings, and ask your inspector to look under the panels.

Think about an ordinary Tuesday, not just the day you fall in love with the house. When you are ready to shop Pima County Arizona real estate, talk with a dedicated full-time local agent who works only for you.

Selling Pima County Arizona real estate this fall: 4 pricing moves that work

  1. Price for today, not last spring. Over 12 months, the single-family median for Pima County Arizona real estate moved between $373,690 and $390,000. Pricing above what recent closings support invites price cuts. We price from recent closings near you, not from online estimates.
  2. Win the first two weeks. With 882 single-family homes closing in the latest month, buyers compare everything. Photos, repairs and price need to be right on day one.
  3. Know your real competition. Resale houses in Pima County compete with newer subdivisions on price and finish, so price Pima County Arizona real estate against recent sales of similar homes in the same city first.
  4. Negotiate the net, not the price. Concessions can matter as much as the sale price, and a full-time Pima County listing agent protects the number you actually walk away with.

Why Pima County Arizona real estate matters in 2026

Pima County market drivers

These are the forces behind Pima County Arizona real estate prices this year.

  • City growth. Each Pima County city has its own market, so county numbers blend very different prices (see cities and towns).
  • Newer subdivisions. Newer single-family subdivisions compete with resale homes, which buyers weigh on price and finish.
  • Larger lots. Outside city limits, many homes sit on larger lots with wells or septic, which changes upkeep and value.
  • County services. Unincorporated Pima County is served by the county sheriff and fire districts; see police coverage.
  • Population. Pima County had 1,074,685 residents in the U.S. Census Bureau Vintage 2025 county population estimate.

A dedicated full-time Pima County buyer’s agent tours Pima County Arizona real estate listings for you on live video and checks what listing photos leave out: whether a street sits in an airport noise or flight-path area, whether a lot backs onto a wash or sits in a mapped floodplain (look up any address on the Pima County Regional Flood Control District flood hazard parcel map), what the HOA rules allow, and which school district serves the address, since district lines and city lines differ in Pima County.

The worry: Buying a house in Arizona from out of state is a top search, and the risk is buying from photos alone. The fix: Have a local buyer’s agent tour homes for you on live video, then read our moving to Arizona guide.

How we build this Pima County Arizona real estate report

Every citywide number in this Pima County Arizona real estate report is our market data for Pima County, reported for single-family homes and for condos and townhomes separately. Zip-level figures return once the current month’s zip data is complete; we do not show older zip numbers next to newer citywide data. We never publish a number we cannot verify; when a figure is not available, such as a monthly new construction series or price per square foot, we leave it out instead of guessing. Builder prices come from each builder’s own site and change often, and event dates were checked on official sites. We refresh this report every month.
