Goodyear, AZ Real Estate Market
Goodyear is leaning toward sellers right now, but it isn't a market that forces you to rush. With 4.0 months of supply, sellers still have the edge on paper. Yet homes take a median of 60 days to sell, and they close at 99.1% of the final list price. Only 14% sold for more than asking. For you, that means you usually have time to tour a second time, read the disclosures, and sleep on it. It also means a well-priced home rarely gives up much below its list price, so plan on a small amount of negotiating room, not a big one.
There's a steady stream of choices to work with. 2,126 homes sold over the last year, and 717 are on the market today, based on data as of October 2026.
Goodyear Home Prices
Most buyers here end up shopping in the same price range. 40% of last year's sales landed between $400,000 and $500,000, and the median sale was $477,000. Today's median asking price is $495,000, so what you see on listings tends to run a bit ahead of where deals have been closing.
The next biggest group, 33% of sales, sold between $500,000 and $750,000. Another 18% sold between $300,000 and $400,000. If your budget sits near the edge of a range, look at homes on both sides of it. Your search will widen quickly.
The typical home that sold was about 2,100 sq ft, built around 2016, on a lot of about 7,090 sq ft. Single-story homes made up 83% of sales, so if you want everything on one level, you'll be looking at most of the market. The median price per square foot was $233. That's the number to keep in mind as you compare the home types below.
Goodyear HOA Fees
Plan your monthly budget with an HOA in it. 98% of homes that sold reported one, and the median fee was $127 a month. Some home types run well above that, as the sections below show. Ask for the exact fee on any home you like before you settle on an offer price, because it changes what you can comfortably afford.
Goodyear Homes with a Pool
A pool sounds like it would add a lot to the price, but the numbers tell a different story. Homes with a pool in Goodyear made up 25% of sales and sold for a median of $580,000, which is 22% higher than the overall market.
Most of that gap comes from the house itself. The typical pool home is 2,470 sq ft, which is 17% larger. It sits on a lot of about 8,650 sq ft, 22% larger than usual. Price per square foot is $241, only 4% higher. You're mostly paying for more house and more yard, not a big pool premium. HOA fees for these homes are about the same as everywhere else, at $125.
The trade-off is age. With a typical build year of 2006, homes with a pool are 10 years older than the market overall. When you tour one, look closely at the pool equipment, the surface, and the roof, and budget for whatever looks like it's near the end of its life.
Goodyear 55+ Community Homes
This is one corner of Goodyear where you really do pay more per foot. Goodyear's 55+ community homes accounted for 19% of sales. They sold at $273 per square foot, which is 17% higher than the market. That premium holds even though the homes are 9% smaller, at a typical 1,910 sq ft, and 7 years older, with a median build year of 2009.
The monthly cost needs a careful look too. The median HOA here is $272 a month, 115% higher than the market. Over several years, that difference can add up to more than the gap in purchase price, so weigh the two together.
Pay attention to today's prices as well. These homes sold for a median of $515,000 over the past year, but the 123 listed now have a median asking price of $488,000. Compare any home you like against recent sales nearby, not just against other listings.
New Construction Homes in Goodyear
Buying new here doesn't cost much extra per foot. New construction homes in Goodyear sold at $234 per square foot, just 1% higher than the market. The homes are about the same size, at a typical 2,050 sq ft, and they sold a little faster, at a median of 53 days.
The trade-offs show up outside the walls. Lots average about 6,060 sq ft, which is 14% smaller than usual. HOAs run a median of $155, 22% higher. If yard space matters to you, a resale home may give you more of it for similar money. There are 43 new homes listed right now, so the choice is limited at any given time.
Goodyear Neighborhoods with the Most Sales
A few communities account for a large share of the sales. PebbleCreek recorded 188 sales over the past year, more than any other named community. Next came Estrella Mountain Ranch with 118 and El Cidro with 112.
Silva Farms had 102 sales, Estrella had 85, and Abel Ranch had 81. More sales in a community means more recent comparable homes to price an offer against. That makes it easier to tell whether a list price is in line.
Solar and Water Service in Goodyear Homes
Two details come up often enough here to check on every home. First, 20% of homes that sold had solar panels. Of those, 46% had panels that were leased or financed rather than owned outright. That can mean a monthly payment or a loan you take over when you buy.
Second, 21% of homes that sold get water from a private water company. That affects who sends you the water bill and what the rates look like.
Questions to Ask Before Making an Offer in Goodyear
- What is the exact monthly HOA fee, and are there any extra assessments?
- If the home has solar, are the panels owned, leased, or financed? What are the monthly payment, the remaining term, and the transfer requirements?
- Who provides water service, and what have recent bills looked like?
- For an older pool home, what is the age and condition of the pool equipment and the roof?
- How does the price per square foot compare with recent sales in the same community?
