Anthem is moving more homes with less supply

Nationally, active listings grew 5.5% year over year in September 2026, according to Realtor.com. But the Real Estate Data Aggregator tells a different story for part of this market. In ZIP 89044, which covers Anthem and Green Valley, inventory dropped 14.3% while homes sold jumped 30.4%. That gap matters if you own or are shopping there.

More sales and less supply usually means sellers hold more cards. Buyers in 89044 may need tighter search criteria and faster decisions. The data covers the three months ending August 31, 2026.

ZIP 89044: Anthem and Green Valley

The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 240 homes sold in 89044 in those three months. Pending sales rose 30.9% too, so the pipeline looks strong. Homes are taking 74 days at the median, which is 18 days longer than a year ago. Not every home is flying off the shelf. But with only 3.3 months of supply, the market is tighter than it was.

The sale-to-list ratio in 89044 sat at 98.3%, per the Real Estate Data Aggregator. That means most sellers got close to what they asked. Only 5.4% of homes sold above list, down 3.3 points from a year before. Pricing still matters a lot here.

ZIP 89052: Seven Hills

ZIP 89052, which covers much of Seven Hills, tells a softer story. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 220 homes sold there, down 9.1% from a year before. Inventory rose 7.7%, and months of supply climbed to 5. That gives buyers a little more room to breathe. The median sale price still rose 8.3% to $649,950, so prices held up even as sales slipped.

ZIP 89074: Green Valley

ZIP 89074 sits in the middle of the three. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 171 homes sold, up 8.9%. The median sale price dipped 9.6% to $445,000. That is a real drop and worth noting if you own here. On the other hand, the sale-to-list ratio ticked up to 98.3%, and pending sales rose 12.2%. So buyers are still engaging, even at lower prices.

How the three ZIP codes compare

The wider picture

Rates are adding pressure everywhere. Realtor.com reported mortgage rates topped 7% in September 2026, the first time since January 2025. CNBC reported the average contract rate for 30-year fixed mortgages reached 7.37% in late October. That raises the monthly cost for any buyer.

Nationally, the Federal Housing Finance Agency said U.S. home prices rose 2.4% from August 2025 to August 2026. Locally, two of the three ZIP codes beat that pace. ZIP 89052 rose 8.3% and ZIP 89044 rose 6.8%, per the Real Estate Data Aggregator. ZIP 89074 fell 9.6%, which is the exception in this market.

The combined market

Across all three ZIP codes together, the Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 631 homes sold in the three months ending August 31, 2026. That is up 8.2% from the same period in 2025. Pending sales across the area rose 12%, which points to continued activity heading into fall. Total inventory edged down just 0.6% combined, but the story inside each ZIP varies sharply.
