Phoenix Real Estate Market Update 2026 | Investor Expectations vs Reality

Описание: In this week’s Phoenix real estate market update, Ed breaks down what investors are seeing as we head into February 2026 — and why expectations matter more than ever right now.

Leasing activity across the Phoenix metro is picking up, Capstone is making real progress on long-standing maintenance challenges, and the year is shaping up strong. But the bigger conversation is about real estate investing expectations, especially for investors who entered the market between 2020 and 2024.

Ed dives into long-term appreciation trends, normalized market growth, rising interest rates, and what current inventory levels mean for buyers, sellers, and landlords. Using historical context and current market data, he explains why today’s market feels very different — and why that doesn’t mean real estate is broken.

This is a must-watch for Phoenix investors trying to decide whether to hold, sell, or reset expectations in a stabilizing market.
