Million dollar home sales jumped 15% in July while sales under $250K kept falling.
The Phoenix Valley market is splitting right down the middle. Existing home sales dipped 1.7% to 4.06 million nationwide, but luxury buyers with stock gains and rising home equity are driving the top end. Meanwhile, mortgage rates above 6.5% are keeping first time buyers on the sidelines. They made up just 29% of July transactions, down from 33% in June. According to NAR's chief economist Lawrence Yun, that number needs to hit 40% for a healthy market.
