How to Compete, Navigate (and Win) in Gilbert’s under 650k Market

by Jason Hall

 

Homebuyers in Gilbert are facing stiff competition this summer, especially in the $500K–$700K price range. Whether you're a first-time buyer or moving up, success means more than just scrolling Zillow — it means showing up ready to win.

With homes averaging 52 days on market but many going under contract within the first week, timing and prep are everything. Sellers are seeing strong activity in neighborhoods like Val Vista Lakes, Cooley Station, and Power Ranch, where upgraded homes are still receiving multiple offers.

Here are three strategies to strengthen your offer in a competitive listing:

  • Get underwritten, not just pre-approved. It shows you're serious and ready to close fast.
  • Limit contingencies when possible. Sellers love clean offers — especially if it’s close to asking.
  • Know your numbers. Ask your agent for comps so you know when to go above list and when to walk.
