The suggested position
$259,900
What we are hearing
  1. 1

    The home has welcomed 8 showings in the first three weeks with no offers written, and the calendar has been quiet for sixteen days. The opening attention was real. The follow-through is what is missing.

  2. 2

    A cooperating agent at Real Broker kindly shared, in her written showing feedback, that she felt the right number sits “closer to the 260K range.” An outside voice arriving exactly where the data is also pointing.

  3. 3

    Pricing at $259,900 introduces the listing to two new pools of buyers we are not currently reaching · the sub-$275K filter and the sub-$260K filter · the most active demographic in 85730 right now.

A kind note from a colleague at Real Broker
“I think you might be closer to the 260K range. We saw about 8 properties similar.”
· Melissa Preciado, Real Broker · written feedback after the 4/27/2026 showing · she also rated the price “Above Market Value.”
04/27/2026 · Price feedback
I think you might be closer to the 260K range. We saw about 8 properties similar.

Price: Above Market Value. Interior: Good. Exterior: Fair. Most appealing: Floor Plan/Design. Least appealing: Backyard. Additional: "The washing machine in the kitchen was a turn off for the buyers." (A buyer's agent putting a price in writing · the strongest piece of evidence we have.)

Above market on exterior · backyard the strongest feature

Price: At Market Value. Interior: Good. Exterior: Fair. Least appealing: Exterior Paint. Most appealing: Backyard. No offer interest · opted to request broker-comp information instead.

04/19 · 05/09 · Quiet stretch
Six tours, six silences

Tours from Keller Williams (Schmidt, Sanchez), Coldwell Banker (Colan), Tierra Antigua (Ortiz, Allen), and eXp (Ward). No written feedback received. In a healthy listing, the silent stretch tends to be the buyers who simply move on without comment · and that is what we appear to be hearing.

May 10 · present · Price feedback
Zero showings since 5/9

After eight showings in the first 22 days, the calendar has been empty for sixteen straight days. Showing pace going from steady to silent typically reflects buyers crossing under the search-filter where this listing currently sits.

The 16-day quiet · MLSSAZ activity log
The activity picture

Eight showings inside the first three weeks · a respectable opening · and then sixteen straight days of nothing. Front-loaded interest followed by silence is the pattern buyers show us when the position is just outside the filter where they are searching.

The model's voice

RPR's automated valuation reads $276,110 at five-star confidence and has eased $2,670 in the last thirty days. Zestimate $279,400. Public Data $274,000. Three independent models in quiet agreement.

The earlier chapter

The 2025 listing at $280,000 rested 147 days before the room stepped back. The current $280,000 follow-up has invited the same reflective quiet at 39 days. Two listing chapters, 186 combined days at the same number, no offers written · a gentle pattern worth listening to.

A note from a colleague

Melissa Preciado at Real Broker kindly suggested in her written feedback that the right number sits closer to the $260K range. An outside voice arriving precisely where the data is also pointing.

My recommendation

$259,900

Not $269K. Not $274K. The exact number matters because real-estate search filters are bracketed at round numbers · and one cooperating agent already put $260K in writing.

The search-filter bracket
Under $260K · proposed
$260K · $275K
$275K · $300K · we are here
$300K +

At $280,000, every buyer with a sub-$275K filter has never seen this home. The $250K · $275K bracket is the largest active demographic in 85730. $259,900 crosses two filters in one move · under $275K and under $260K · and lands at the exact number a buyer's agent already named in writing. A $5,000 trim does not do that. The move from $280,000 to $259,900 does.
