The following chart is a snapshot of the current single family home market in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson, AZ.
Included is the number of homes currently for sale, in contract, and sold in the last 30 days - broken down into five price ranges - with the resulting months of inventory (MOI) for each group. (6 MOI is considered a normal, balanced market. Much less than that and it becomes a sellers market - with much more it becomes a buyers market). MOI is a basic measure of current supply and demand.
It’s a starting point to help you gauge the level of activity in the price range that interests you. I hope it helps and I look forward to your questions, comments and suggestions.
I (usually) update it weekly. (updated 2/17/2019))

And the big picture, a comparison of the number of homes sold in each year from 2004 to 2018.
First up are the number of homes that sold up to $999,999;
And the same chart, but this time for the number of homes that sold for $1,000,000 and UP
And finally, Median sold prices for each year from 2004 thru 2018
As you can see in the first chart, home sales this year up to $999,999 are down -10% from last year.
Meanwhile the $1million+ market continues to gain ground after losing its shirt in 2008, 2009 and struggling from 09 to 2015, it now appears to be on increasingly solid ground.
And the agonizingly slow rise in sold prices that began in 2013 perked up in 2018 (Up almost 10% over 2017) - and while it still has a ways to go before getting back to where prices were in 2005 - 2008 - sold prices are now finally within sight of their boom time peaks.
The bottom line is that overall the Catalina Foothills real estate market had a very good year in 2018.
