Peoria, AZ Real Estate Snapshot for 2025: Why Now Could Be a Strategic Time to Buy

If you’re watching the market in Peoria, Arizona, now’s a smart time to check in. The data show home-values are down slightly, days on market are lengthening, and buyer power is increasing. For first-time buyers or those looking to step-up, that mix could open up some very interesting opportunities.

According to Redfin, the median sale price in Peoria in September 2025 was around $525,000, which is about 2.5% lower year-over-year. Zillow lists the average home value at around $484,686, down 3.5% over the past year. These numbers point to a market that’s cooling — not collapsing — but giving buyers a little more breathing room.

At the same time, supply and buyer dynamics are shifting: the broader Arizona market is seeing greater inventory and fewer ultra-competitive bidding wars. That means if you’re prepared and working with someone who knows the Peoria market inside out (like you do), you may have more negotiating leverage than in the peak frenzy years.

However, it’s not just about price. Because Peoria remains a highly desirable suburb of the Phoenix metro, condition, location, school quality, and future resale matter. The “window” might be open, but you still need to choose wisely. And for a first-time buyer especially, looking at total monthly cost (mortgage, taxes, HOA, maintenance) remains key.
