FOUNTAIN HILLS, Ariz. - Rezul -- Is the Fountain Hills, AZ single-family market cooling, or does July's lower median leave out part of the story?

An analysis of FlexMLS data by Lisa Murray, Global Real Estate Advisor with Russ Lyon Sotheby's International Realty, found 60 Fountain Hills, AZ single-family closings above $1.5 million from January through July 2026, compared with 38 during the same period in 2025.
