How many homes sold in Maricopa AZ from July 1 to 21?

87 homes closed escrow in the City of Maricopa between July 1 and July 21, 2026, across zip codes 85138 and 85139, per ARMLS data pulled July 22, 2026. The same 21-day window last year produced 88 closings, so sales volume is running even with July 2025. What has changed is speed: the median closing this window took 65 days on market, roughly 10 days faster than the 75.5-day median in the same window last year.

Counts include resales, new construction closings reported to the MLS, and a small number of distressed and acreage sales. Builder closings that never hit the MLS are not included, and figures will continue to shift slightly as late closings post.

What changed since the July 14 update?

Two things, and both are worth being transparent about. First, the July 1 to 14 window itself grew after we published the July 2026 mid-month sold report: late closings pushed that window from 51 recorded sales to 56, and its median from $355,000 to $360,000. MLS data is a living record, which is exactly why we publish these as dated snapshots.

Second, the added week ran hotter than the first two. The 31 closings from July 15 to 21 posted a median of $372,000, pulling the full 21-day median up to $365,000. Zero of those 31 closings were distressed sales. One week is not a trend, but the direction favors sellers who are priced correctly.

What did homes sell for?

The median sold price for the 21-day window was $365,000. The average was roughly $370,100. The lowest closing was $203,218, a HUD-owned sale in Rancho El Dorado, and the highest was $667,000 in Province. The median closed home was 2,079 square feet, 69 of the 87 sales were 3 or 4 bedroom homes, and single-level homes outnumbered two-story homes 63 to 24.

Median price per square foot came in at $175. The same window in July 2025 ran about $188 per square foot, so buyers are paying roughly 7 percent less per foot than a year ago even as the median price holds. Homes are selling, and selling faster, but the price has to match what closed comps support, not what last year’s market paid.

Closed sales, City of Maricopa, July 1 to 21, 2026, per ARMLS.

The $300,000 to $400,000 band still carried the market with 47 of 87 closings, but the $400,000 to $450,000 band strengthened noticeably in week three, and five homes closed above $500,000, including sales at $525,000 in Senita, $562,900 in Rancho El Dorado, $565,000 in Homestead, and $667,000 in Province. The longer trend behind this snapshot lives in Maricopa housing trends.

How do 85138 and 85139 compare?

Medians reflect each zip’s mix of homes this window, not a like-for-like premium.

The two zips converged this window. Price per square foot is now nearly identical, $175 in 85138 versus $174 in 85139, and the medians sit within $2,000 of each other. The real difference remains time: 85139 closings took a median of 87 days on market against 62 in 85138. West-side sellers should either budget the longer runway or price sharper out of the gate. Neighborhood context for each zip is in the best neighborhoods in 85138 and the best neighborhoods in 85139.

Which subdivisions had closed sales?

Closings posted in 26 communities and acreage areas. Where a community had only a few closings, the figures below are individual data points, not a market value for the community.

Rancho El Dorado’s low end reflects one HUD-owned sale at $203,218. Tortosa’s median reflects a pre-foreclosure sale at $210,000 in a four-sale sample.

Single closings also posted in Smith Farms ($410,000), Maricopa Meadows ($370,000), Alterra ($355,000), The Trails ($325,000), and Desert Passage ($275,000). The Rancho El Dorado community was the volume leader for the second straight report, with 16 closings spanning a $203,218 HUD sale to a $562,900 top-end resale, a spread that shows why community-level comps need adjustment before they mean anything for an individual home. Sales in the Homestead community, our Glennwilde guide’s coverage area, the Senita community, the Cobblestone Farms neighborhood, and our Tortosa guide’s coverage area each get deeper context on their community pages.

New builds vs resale: who closed higher?

New build closings reported to ARMLS only. Builder-direct closings that skip the MLS are not counted here.

New builds held a premium of about $14 per square foot over resale this window. Amarillo Creek accounted for 8 of the 18 new-build closings, with the rest spread across Rancho Mirage, Sorrento, Elena Trails, El Rancho Santa Rosa, Hidden Valley Estates, and two Rancho El Dorado Phase III parcels. Builders on those closings included Starlight Homes, Ashton Woods, D.R. Horton, Meritage Homes, Pulte, Richmond American, Century Communities, and Clayton. Resale sellers near active builder communities are competing with that inventory and its incentives, which is why pricing to the comps and the new builds matters more here than in a resale-only market.

What about pools, golf course lots, basements, and acreage?

Private pools. 22 of the 87 closings had a private pool, and they sold at a median of $402,500 versus $346,000 for homes without one. As always, part of that gap is the pool and part is that pool homes skew larger and more upgraded. If you own one, selling a Maricopa home with a pool covers how the value actually gets counted.

Golf course lots. Three golf course lot homes closed, all in Rancho El Dorado, at $372,000, $435,000, and $448,900. Two of the three landed in the top quarter of the window’s price range.

Basements. Still zero. No basement home has closed in Maricopa in the first three weeks of July. The niche stays thin, which cuts both ways on pricing when one finally lists.

Acreage and county-area properties. This window included a visible acreage segment carrying Maricopa addresses: $407,000 in Thunderbird Farms North, $280,000 in Hidden Valley Estates, a $265,000 manufactured home in Saddleback Farms, and two unsubdivided parcels at $495,000 and $530,000. Acreage properties trade on land, wells, outbuildings, and access, so city-lot comps do not transfer to them.

Were there short sales or foreclosures?

Four of the 87 closings carried a distressed designation, all of them closing in the first two weeks: one short sale in Amarillo Creek at $275,000, one HUD-owned sale in Rancho El Dorado at $203,218, one lender-owned sale in Homestead North at $395,000, and one pre-foreclosure sale in Tortosa at $210,000. Zero distressed sales closed between July 15 and 21, which brought the distressed share of the window down to under 5 percent. Distress remains a small slice of this market, but if you are behind on payments, waiting shrinks your choices: see options if you owe more than your home is worth.

How fast are homes selling, and are sellers getting asking price?

The median closing took 65 days on market, and resales alone moved in 63 days, faster than the new-build median of 73. Homes closed at a median of 100 percent of their final list price but 96.7 percent of their original list price, with resales at 95.7 percent of original. The pattern from the mid-month report held: the typical path to a closing still runs through a price reduction, then a sale at the corrected number. The sellers who skipped that detour were the ones whose original price already matched the closed comps. Note the year-over-year pairing here, because it defines this market: homes are selling about 10 days faster than last July, at about 7 percent less per square foot. Speed is available. It is bought with accurate pricing.

What this means if you are thinking about selling

Three weeks of closed data now point the same direction. Volume is even with last year, homes are moving faster, the $300,000 to $450,000 range is doing the heavy lifting, and the gap between original list price and sold price is still where sellers win or lose. The most recent week was the strongest of the month so far. If your home is priced to the closed comps, adjusted for pool, lot, condition, and the new-build competition nearby, this market will meet you.
