Yes, if you base your offer on recent closed prices and not just the newest asking numbers.
If you are worried that stepping into the market now means overpaying, that is the right question to ask first. My answer is yes, you can avoid that mistake in Leisure World, AZ, but only if your offer is tied to recent closings instead of the highest fresh asking price.
A typical closed price in Leisure World, AZ was $405,000 last month, while newly listed homes entered around $444,945. At the same time, active listings showed a typical asking price of $359,000. I would not let the newest list number define value by itself. Buyers gain protection by reading those numbers together. Recent offers closed at about 95.9% of asking, and supply stood at 5.25 months. That gives you room to stay selective. It does not give you permission to ignore the homes that are genuinely priced well. Set your valuation range from recent closed homes first. Use active listings only as competition context, not as proof of value. In Leisure World, AZ, I would also avoid emotional bidding on day one if the property still needs to prove that its asking price fits the market.
