The best time of year to sell a house in Maricopa County, AZ
In Maricopa County, AZ, homes have sold for the most in March and the least in July. Over the last three years the gap between those two months worked out to about 3% of a typical year's price.
The short version: list in March if you want the highest price, and expect July to be the softest month of the year.
Speed follows a slightly different calendar. Homes in Maricopa County, AZ have gone under contract fastest in March. That is not always the same month prices peak, because the busiest month usually brings the most competition from other sellers too.
The most homes come on the market in March. More listings means more buyers looking, but also more homes competing with yours.
This is based on three years of Redfin's published sales data for the Maricopa County, AZ area, through May 2026. It is a pattern, not a promise — one house in good condition priced correctly beats the calendar every time.
