Market Report

Real Estate Report — August 2026

By Wayne Corcoran & Yara Jimenez · Rocky Point Real Estate Properties

· Data through July 2026

Core Executive Trends

  • U.S. & Arizona softening vs. Mexico acceleration: The U.S. and Arizona markets are absorbing past price spikes and transitioning into balanced or buyer-leaning conditions with low 0%–2% appreciation.
