Is Chandler’s Housing Market Crashing or Climbing? Here’s What You Really Need to Know

Tired of conflicting headlines? Let’s cut through the noise.

Some say Chandler real estate is crashing. Others say it’s booming. And then there’s that guy dancing in a kitchen 

on TikTok.

Here’s what’s actually happening in the Chandler, AZ housing market this May 2025—and how it affects you.

The Real Problem: Too Much Hype, Not Enough Truth

Most buyers and sellers feel stuck right now—not because of a lack of homes or buyers—but because they’re getting pulled in too many directions.

YouTube says one thing. Instagram says another. But what no one’s telling you? The market is no longer about timing—it’s about being strategic.

This isn’t a seller’s market. It’s not a buyer’s market.

It’s a smart person’s market.

Chandler Real Estate Market Snapshot – May 2025

Here’s what the numbers are saying—not the influencers:

• Inventory is up big – Nearly 90 days of inventory on the market
  

• Average Days on Market: 59 – Homes are taking longer to sell

• Sellers are getting 97.5% of list price, down from 98.5% a year ago
  → That’s about a $6,500 difference on a $650K home

• Price per square foot is holding steady at $294 – Flat, not falling

What This Means For You (And Why It Matters)

If you’re a buyer:

 You’ve got more choices than you did last year

 Motivated sellers = more negotiating power

 But if rates rise or competition picks up again, that window could close fast

If you’re a seller:

 Homes are still selling

 But they’re sitting longer, and buyers are more selective

 Overpricing will cost you—in time, stress, and final sale price

Here’s what most smart buyers and sellers are doing right now:

True Story: When Smart Strategy Beat Market Confusion

Just last month, I helped a seller in South Chandler who felt frozen by the conflicting advice online. We priced it right the first time, marketed it strategically, and sold within 10 days—while nearby homes sat for weeks.

They didn’t guess. They didn’t gamble. They got results.

Here’s the Risk of Waiting…

You don’t need to panic. You just need a plan.

And I’m here to help you build it.

You’re not just buying or selling a house. You’re making one of the biggest financial moves of your life.
