FHFA notes: The FHFA HPI is a broad measure of the movement of single-family house prices. The FHFA HPI is a weighted, repeat-sales index, meaning that it measures average price changes in repeat sales or refinancings on the same properties. The line is FHFA's standard quarterly all-transactions index; the comparison table uses FHFA's annual state index from the same family. The index does not give a dollar value for any home.
Arizona's FHFA house price index starts in 1975. Through 2025 it has risen +1020.8%; over the ten years to 2025 the rise was +118.7% (+8.1% a year), well above the national +85.0%.
The quarterly index through 2026 Q2 is +0.9% on a year earlier and −0.2% on the quarter; nationally +3.0% and +1.1%.
The index peaked in 2006, fell −45.2% to 2011 and regained the peak in 2020; the national index fell −21.3% over 2007–2012.
47,257 housing units were authorised in Arizona in the 12 months to August 2026, 6.2 per 1,000 residents against 4.1 nationally; that is −7.4% on the previous 12 months. 14 counties, 11 metro and micro areas, 262 ZIP codes and 77 permit-issuing places in the state have their own pages.

FHFA reports each index with a value of 100 in its base period, the first year the area has enough transactions (1975 here). A decade's change is the index at the end of the decade divided by the index at the start, so it does not depend on the base year; the United States column covers the same years. Decades before 1975 are not shown.
Peak-to-low declines
| Peak | Low | Decline | Peak regained |

| 2006 | 2011 | −45.2% | 2020 |
| 1981 | 1982 | −6.2% | 1983 |
Purchase-only index
FHFA also publishes a purchase-only index, built from sales prices alone (no refinance appraisals). It starts in 1991 and is drawn here on its own base.
