This Quarter Belongs to Buyers in Phoenix, Arizona For Buyers Mortgage rates dropped over 2 months from July 15th (6.85%) to September 16th (6.1%), dropping payments by 7.5% across the board and reaching the lowest rate in over a year.

The second—and perhaps most telling—change is visual: a sea of red dots has returned to the table. After several
