This month, McDowell Mountain Ranch hit its highest median sale price in 24 months, driven by tightening inventory and a surge in contract activity. Despite seasonal slowdowns, demand remains resilient compared to broader Scottsdale trends. Homes priced accurately are seeing strong early showings and shorter days on market. Overall, momentum favors well-prepared sellers heading into the next quarter.


Median Sale Price - 12 Month

Median sale price in MMR surged into the mid-$1.6M range this month, marking one of the strongest jumps of the year. Despite seasonal fluctuations, the community continues to show remarkable price stability compared to broader Phoenix volatility.

Active Inventory - 12 Month

Active inventory increased into November, but remains below the year’s earlier highs — a balance that’s supporting strong pricing and steady demand in MMR.

% of Inventory Under Contract - 12 Month

Only 12% of active listings moved into escrow last month — a weaker sign of buyer engagement

FOR HOMEOWNERS - What This Means

For Sellers:

  • Median Price in MMR is sitting at a 24-month high, a strong position for anyone considering a move.

  • Inventory remains moderate even with the seasonal rise, meaning well-presented listings still get strong visibility.

  • Homes Priced correctly continue to see faster showing activity and tighter negotiation windows.

For Buyers:

  • More inventory than midsummer, but still far from a “soft” market, desirable homes move quickly.

  • Stable pricing indicates confidence, not volatility, and helps frame long-term value.

  • Opportunities exist when a listing misprices or sits longer than the market average.

For Investors:

  • Rising median prices + balanced inventory = sustained upward pressure on long-term values.

  • MMR continues to outperform broader Scottsdale in price stability and demand consistency.

  • Strong rental fundamentals in the area make the neighborhood attractive for hold strategies.
