Is Arizona a buyers market right now? Would be first time buyer

[Garrett Pickering]

Good afternoon! I am making this post to hopefully figure out whether it is a good time to buy a first home. I have been very interested in real estate investing for a while, and I don’t want to buy a house here if the market is a sellers market. I know with Covid things are weird and I wonder what impact it has had on the housing market? I have seen a lot of lower priced homes recently. Is it a good market to flip homes in? Also, I am curious on what an estimated down payment would be on a property around $150,000. I don’t have the best credit, but it’s okay I think it’s in the fair range. I am paying monthly rent on an apartment right now and I would like to make a switch if it makes sense! I have never purchased property so it would be my first time buying a home and I just recently started saving. Any advice on the market or recommendations you could give me would be very appreciated thank you happy hunting!
